Great Bass, but.......

This bass arrived in great condition from Germany. It traveled from Germany to South Texas, United States, in three days. That was very impressive. Love the bass, the look, feel and sound. I would normally have given all 5 stars, except for two small problems. First. The coil split feature is very confusing. It's not the coil split feature where you pull a tone knob, or move a switch. Instead they opted for a pot. Still trying to figure it out, but haven't yet. Second. This bass guitar is a left handed bass, but the volume pot is wired for a right handed player. So, as a left handed person, I have to rotate the knob as if I am lowering the volume, instead of raising it. Both of these issues are annoying, but they are not deal breakers. Still very happy with my purchase, and my order in gerneral. Even though, we here in the United States have to pay almost as much for shipping as we do for the instrument, these instruments are very much worth what we are paying. We are not getting as good a deal as the people in Europe, but now we, to a lesser degree, know what it was like for people in Europe who wanted an American made guitar. Over all, great sounding and playing instrument. I will definitely be back.

Most efficient and reasonable stingray ever

Just bought it for my dad, we both ain't a bass player (but i can tell what's good and bad) but all i can say is to this price, you won't be able to get anything better than Harley Benton. It's reasonable, efficient and top quality sound around this price range.

Great value!

Very well constructed bass overall. I did need to have the fret edges filed down slightly and I also swapped the pick up out for an MEC one which really brought this bass to life. Even with the extra outlay it's still great bang for buck.

TrÃ¨s satisfait !

- Attention, j'ai débuté sérieusement la basse il n'y a que 2 mois, avant, je ne faisais que "gratouiller". Je n'ai donc pas encore beaucoup de recul - Pas beaucoup d'offre de basses entrée de gamme lorsque l'on est gaucher. Plutôt amateur du style Stingray, celle-ci m'a tapé dans l’œil. Pour le prix, l'instrument est vraiment très bien. Aucun reproche sur la finition, si ce n'est un peu de réglage truss rod/action. Attention, sur le pickguard, il y a 2 films plastiques. Le 1e est à enlever, pas le 2e... Mon ongle a commencé à grater la peinture le 1e jour... J'ai depuis fait un covering PVC noir qui la rend encore plus belle. J'ai une Stagg PJ gaucher d'il y a 10 ans, même gamme de prix, et la différence de qualité est incomparable, la Harley Benton est clairement gagnante. Les mécaniques de la Harley Benton n'ont pas de jeu, les frets n'accrochent pas.... . Je suis vraiment très content de mon instrument. Juste une suggestion pour Harley Benton : proposez la avec un pickguard noir ! Vous avez déjà la pièce sur la Sunburst ! Pour ce qui est du son, je débute, je n'ai pas encore beaucoup d'éléments de comparaison, mais elle sonne bien mieux que ma Stagg, sur laquelle j'ai pourtant remplacé les micro 'stock' par des Wilkinson.
