    Good bass under 1000

    Hello, it is time for me to start looking for a new 5-stringed bass. Right now I have a Harley Benton BZ5000 that I feel have worked for me until now. I feel like the sound of it doesn’t match my standard even if I love the look of the bass. I want a 5-string for under 1000 that sound good...

    Odd number of pickup mounting screws on this Harley Benton

    I'm looking to purchase my first 5 string bass and have my eyes set on the Harley Benton BZ-5000 NT II. Great looking bass with an affordable price tag and good reviews, but there's not a lot of information about it on the world wide web. In particular, I'm looking at the pickups and wondering...

    I bought the most expensive Harley Benton bass (BZ-6000 II NT)

    I played a 6 string in my local guitar shop and got a sudden, burning need to have one... but not that one. It was a piece of crap. After a lot of research, I came to the conclusion that Harley Benton has, hands down, the best spec to price ratio, even when you include shipping. Neck-through was...

A Harley Benton MV-4JB in shell pink :D I'm shocked at the...

    Harley Benton Did it

    Thanks to Harley Benton for releasing an "affordable" 5 string Jazz Bass in BLACK; This thing looks pretty killer too I must say; loving the whell truss rod adjustment and the 19mm string spacing.

    F#0 string for Ibanez GSR206B-WNF or Harley Benton B-650?

    Essentially as a bridge solution until I can afford a Dingwall 6 string :) Sadly, there are no <500€ options with 6 strings AND a longer than 34'' scale... It doesn't have to sound amazing, I mostly want to use it to get used to the tuning and to write my songs with it. Any experiences with...

    Is the Harley Benton Solidbass 210T any good?

    Early this year I bought a Harley Benton stingray clone and have been running a TC Electronic BQ250 using headphones (I'm primary a home and hobby player). I've been looking at semi budget cab options for a 2x10 but they're very limited, especially for micro cabs. I was looking at Ampeg with...

    Hi moderators, I'm not sure how to post a sub topic in the Harley Benton thread so hoping you'll move it there if necessary. So I bought the JB-75 about a month ago and I'm blown away with the sound and the general quality of the bass, but while it's a really excellent guitar for the price -...
