zillmere Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 It is a Harley Benton from Thomann. I added a few extras so I ended up with - Bass, 20w amp, bag, strap, cable, stand, picks and tuner for 221 delivered to me in Dublin. Not too shabby I reckon. I am happy with it, the only problem is I have to wait until the middle of April for it to arrive. Here are the specs. I know it is probably not the best bass ever made but for 220, am I bovverd? HARLEY BENTON HBB400LHTBK 4-string LEFTHAND E-Bass, 1x JB-, 1x PB Pickup, active Electronic, mapleneck with rosewood fingerboard, Basswood body, die-cast machine heads, chrome Hardware, colour: transparent black.

Michele C. Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 You might consider metal fences. Some of them sound good when plucked. Anyway, welcome on board: bass is a lot of fun. -- Michele Costabile (http://proxybar.net) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brocko777 Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 A strong rubber band between two fingers gives a nice timbre also.. and tunable! Enjoy the fish when you get 'er!

Bottomgottem Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 Welcome to the club! Try this while you wait. Balloon Bass My whole trick is to keep the tune well out in front. If I play Tchaikovsky, I play his melodies and skip his spiritual struggle. ~Liberace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
