Best PJ for the buck!

I ordered it just for a spare 4-string bass for my lessons and I am really suprised by the sound and quality of this instrument. The body is a beautiful matte black, it's lightweight, the neck is comfortable. 10 years ago most cheap basses were really bad. I'm glad Harley Benton joined the game and improved so much!

Great sound for the price

I was a bit unsure whether I should get this as my first bass or go for a more famous and potentially reliable option, but I never regretted getting this. It gave me the comfort to try this kind of instrument for a low price, and at the same time provide a good sound which I even use in my records

Pretty awesome out of the box.

After ordering a baritone and receiving it damaged by UPS, I ordered this instead with my store credit.

I have to say, pretty impressed with the quality, if I compare it with my other HB that I have (te-20 HH), which I bought in 2020.

The setup was pretty close on it, just a bit more work on the intonation and its good. The issues I had out the box were:

- the volume pot for the J pickup was not fully tightly screwed. This was not really a problem, as I needed to unscrew the pots anyway, to remove all of the plastic protection they shipped it with.

- the jack was loose as well, just like the pot

- One of the tuner had a loose screw that stuck out about 4 mm, so it was really visible, not really sure how the QC missed that.

I like this, I have a feeling this will remain stock for a while, not like my TE-20 that I had to mod, to fix issues.

Solid First Bass

This bass guitar was my first one as I wanted to explore and expand my playing abilities. For someone who isn't familiar with bass guitars but is familiar with electric and acoustic guitars this has held up very nicely.

As delivered had a lot of fret buzz. After fixing this plays great. Would definitely recommend.

Exceptional Bass at a Ridiculously Low Price !

Been hearing a lot about this brand over the past few weeks so I took the plunge ! This bass surpassed my expectations and then some ! The black matte finish is beautiful and feels really good to play ! Right out of the box this bass is ready to ROCK ! Super fast shipping as well !

You just can't beat that price ! I'll definitely purchase another one soon !
