Harley Benton HBO-850 Bass Natural 5-stars Reviews

nice bit of kit

bought this for my daughter and it is a pleasantly stunning guitar for the price,she is pretty slender and the bowl back has made easier for her to took in and play,very impressed with the quality and finish

Great sound

Sound was much better than expected. decently loud (if played with a pick) Setup was good out of the box. quality control was probably the worst harley benton i got. back of the neck is not got some bumps, and the fretboard was so dry that chipped a little bit. Fret work was good. Overall quite satisfied

Excellent Manufacturers of Bass Guitars

It is a brilliant addition to my homestudio. Just fits right in. No complications. Just pick it up .plug it in and start a bass session .

Lovely addition

Excellent Value

This bass is superbly playable and has a present and bright tone. Great for practice and writing.

Superb quality for the price

No issues with my bass at all, machine heads have been touted as poor in previous reviews. I disagree...

I bought this for a knock around when it comes to camping etc... but i'll be using it in the studio too as it sounds great plugged in too.

Great sounding

I wanted a bass guitar to pick up at will and play without all the messing around with amps, cables and so on. This guitar fits the bill and sounds and looks great too. Very pleased.

Good Value roundback

I got this HB acoustic bass to practice in the Living Room without having to have amps cluttering my living space. It's well built, and good looking. Needed minor setup. I was not crazy about the strings that came with it...a little too "twangy", which is common with an acoustic bass. After talking with a musician at a local bar gig who was playing an acoustic bass...he said he had the same issue with his expensive acoustic bass and replaced the strings with nylon tape-wound strings. They are black, look cool and sound much better. The wood design pieces glued on could use some minor sanding or oiling. I like this bass...it's a great practice tool for me (I'm a beginner...my wife is the musician) and we also have the matching round back HB classical nylon string guitar, and just ordered the steel string round back version too. Outstanding values for a ridiculously small amount of money. Buy it!

Good

Good bass for the price.

Very good for this momey

Good bass, the sound great, some quastions to tuning mashines, but generally all good.

A thing of beauty

Bought this as an Xmas present and for the price it is a steal. Obviously not a brand but what do you want for your money
