JB-75MN Black Vintage Series : Very good but heavy!

3 years ago

Obvious choice, I always wanted to have a jazz bass but I couldn't justify the expense, I mainly play 6 string guitars. In comes Harley Benton, I did what setup I could new strings, polished the frets, adjusted the neck with a truss rod (that actually works too!) and put hundreds of hours into playing it.

No major complaints, it's very well made, maybe too well in fact because it's really heavy. Put against a Yamaha TRBX305 that I bought after the HB, the good old HB feels like it's double the weight of the Yamaha and that could be an issue for some players. I don't mind it because I only play it at home sitting down.

If not playing it, it's always great to look at it so consider it having two functions at home
