Harley Benton PJ-74 VW Vintage Series

Fantastic PJ

This bass played great right out of the box. After shielding, a setup and new flats, this bass is fantastic. It's become my main bass, replacing my Fender MIM P bass. The Roswell pups sound great with plenty of punch. Highly recommend this bass.

Perfect PJ style

If a PJ style bass is what you're after, look no further. Sounds exactly like a p bass should, and the quality is top notch

Excellent bass, i´m 100% satisfied

Slick

The most perfect weighted bass I’ve owned. Fret work is outstanding right out the box

Solid build quality, decent price. I personally disliked the pickups and the tone they produced, but I would still recommend this bass to others.

A Lot Of Bass Value

One beautiful looking instrument , looks features and sound is very impressive .

It really is as good as they say.

TL;DR - get it! It is amazing and versatile. Tons of tonal variation.

I only had a 6 string bass with me now, and I needed a 4 string bass, wanted to try a Precision, didn't have too much money to spend - this was an easy choice. And a good one.

Intonation from the factory was playable, not quite perfect, but definitely playable.

Action perhaps to the medium-higher side, but I like it like that.

I get it out of the box, tune it and play it for almost two hours. - it did not get out of tune! Saw people saying the tuners are meh, but I think it is more correct to say that they are definitely okay, not meh.

The neck feel is incredible. I knew it was a good instrument for the money, but I did not expect such a nice satin neck.

Frets and everything are great, everything is perfect and quality.

I had to lower the P pickup due to occasional popping sound when playing slap and I raised the J pickup.

Volumes and tone are great to dial in a blend between the pups or just find your sweetspot.

Both pickups are surprisingly great, kinda like a jazz bass. P pickup is great, sounds like a P. J pickup is quieter of course.

It neck dives a bit, but a nice leather strap negates that.

Strings are nice, I bought flats with it, but I will definitely let these roundwounds die first.

It sounds great, like you would expect a fender to sound.

The output of the pickups is quite high.

I love it. Definitely a recommendation! It feels nice to play a super cheap thing too , just out of principle haha.

Great Bass it really is.

I needed a new all rounder Bass for home use ,my 30 year old one (from the gig times hd give up the ghost).I ordered this came a week later to the U.K. Played great out of the boxes .there is an issue with the bushing on the e-string lifting a little ,and my neck is not Amaranth but that blackwood stuff,but other than that perfect ,glad i bought it.Oh and that matching headstock is stunning

A pleasant surprise

I was skeptical when I first saw the price of this bass guitar. I've played a lot of cheap basses in my time, and they've usually been pretty disappointing. But I was pleasantly surprised by this one.

The build quality is surprisingly good. The neck is straight, the frets are level, and the electronics work perfectly. The finish is also well-applied and looks great.

But the real surprise is the sound. This bass has a surprisingly rich and full sound for a budget instrument. The pickups are well-balanced and give you a lot of control over your tone.

I've been using this bass for a few months now, and I'm really impressed with it. It's a great bass for the price, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a budget-friendly option.
