Harley Benton HBB500TBK 5 string electric bass quick demo

[DrBuberschmitzel]

Hey, nice vid :) You think it would be a good bass for live playing, if the PU's were replaced maybe, and some other sound enhancing treatment? Not for a pro-level performance of course :)

[metfan1045]

Does this bass have a battery as tomann have asked me if it does, i am not sure about it as i have only owned the bass a couple of months

[k1a9t9a0na]

I never thought that a Harley Benton can be this great, this dude showed the proper way to use this bass. It has a great sound and the bass is great too so...congratulations, great job :)

[inzaneplayaa]

Hey, i'm maybe gonna buy that bass :)

Do you think its a good idea ?

[hbalazs09]

Hello, do you recomend that bass?

[MrNorbi14]

did u buy the guitar from thomann?

[Moenchengladbach]

Schlechter Bass, guter Bassist. So soll es sein und nicht umgekehrt.

[MikeCrows]

do you is this any good for metal? i did listen to thomann's previews but i don't know if its actually going to work playing that kind of stuff..

[UltimateRadioSan]

@MikeCrows I use my one of these to play a lot of System Of Down, Slipknot, Avenged Sevenfold actually :) very good bass :) very handy bass for Korn too actually.

[Rocky1990]

good god this sound is perfect. I wasnt aware it could sound that well. Well im gonna buy one I think.

There's also a 6 string version of it but I don't like the fact that on a 6er the B string is so hard to reach.

[rekop14000]

Bravo , vraiment trés sympa surtout avec une HB . Beautiful work , and nice sound Funky . I like it !!

[Rmukia]

What does TBK mean?

[natrockskate]

im playing this bass for 1 yr now...but mine sucks because its a b.stock and completely broken...however im abled to play with it and its ok...

will buy an ibanez sr600 soon

[GRigori0s10]

I live in Greece. Could I buy it? What's the price?

[absurdcus]

@GRigori0s10 hey, I think you can buy it, sure. It's 120 Euro, but you should check how much the shipping costs, 'cuz maybe it would be cheaper to buy one from Thomann or something. I would prefer to sell locally, so the buyer can actually try the bass before he purchases it. Maybe there's things about it he won't like. Send me a PM when you have thought it over :)

[GRigori0s10]

So where do you live? Is it sold?

[absurdcus]

@GRigori0s10 it's still up for sale, I live in Romania.

[HiMyNameIsJacky]

Is it worth bying? You look like an experienced musician, quick review?

[absurdcus]

@HiMyNameIsJacky well, It's around 160 E, I'd say it's a pretty decent bass for that money, but don't expect to get boutique bass sounds out of it. It is what it is, an entry level bass, chinese made, pretty well built, if you learn to use it properly I think it's definitely worth buying :)

[tudorsk8]

is it a good bass for rock/metal?

[absurdcus]

@tudorsk8 I'm pretty sure you can use it for rock/metal as well.

[Libano603]

pickups are passive but electronics are active,right?

[absurdcus]

@Libano603 I believe so, yes.

[drg92asturias]

Good bassist are not the ones who show how good their basses sound. Good bassist can make cheap basses sound amazing.

[ikkfu]

awesome!

[honeycooler]

that sounds pretty slick! very slick infact. how much he selling it for?

[absurdcus]

@honeycooler he's asking 120 Euro for the bass+gigbag+strap. pretty nifty deal, if you ask me.

[honeycooler]

@absurdcus cha for sure! what country is he in?

[absurdcus]

@honeycooler same as me, Romania :)

[honeycooler]

@absurdcus AHHH im in holland. sux.

@Harley Benton is het huismerk van online muziekwinkel Thomann.de Daar kun je alle Harley Benton-instrumenten bestellen, en ze kosten geen donder! Ik wacht zelf op een 6-snarige bas, kostte me maar E166!
