HBZ-2004 Deluxe Series : Exceptional value for money

8 years ago

Long time guitar player here, so I decided to pick up a relatively cheap bass for some recording.

I have had it for a year now and I love it. It looks and feels great (the neck-thru construction is amazing) and the sound, while not amazing, pretty good. The active EQ gives good control over tone shaping. It's comfortable to play, and well balanced with a strap when standing.

It did require a some set-up when I got it, which is to be expected. The action was very low and I was getting a lot of fret buzz, but some adjustments to the truss rod and a day or two to settle down sorted it out. After a year of regular playing, it's in great shape and I have not had any issues.

For ¤249, you really can't go wrong with this bass.
