I am playing mine for 3 years now. It is simply a great Instrument! At gigs people tell me, that it just sounds great and as they have not looked at the headstock, they are baffled, when I tell them, that it is a budget bass. It plays well, it sounds great. I am playing bass since decades. This is not a beginner instrument. It is just good.

I am in disbelief at how you keep improving everything from camera to playing to cat/bass ratio. Amazing and informative review as always!

I've been learning on mine for several years now and I love it tbh. I bought it for a ton off ebay and it came with fender flats and was well set up by the seller. I've been playing with bach cello stuff on it and it's been a great exercise, and sounds surprisingly good.

Great review Jonny! I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one who thought that it was on the weighty side. In fact, the weight bothered me so much that I later bought a HB Standard Series Jazz bass in blue, which had a pretty bad neck, in my opinion - razor sharp frets. So I had the bright idea of combining the best parts of the 2 basses and now I have a beautiful blue bass with a smooth maple neck (love the block inlays) that plays great and looks awesome (a blue pearl scratch guard really brings it to life). Like you say, many people will mod the hell out of these basses and I'm enjoying it so far. Keep up the good work!

After getting a Harley Benton Strat and PBass, I have been contemplating one of their Jazz Basses, and as usual, you have definitely helped sell me one one. I always trust your opinions, which is rather unfortunate from a financial standpoint.
Seriously, I don't think that you can find a better bass suited to punk. That bridge pick up really helps it punch through any mix with its treblely growl. Not that it's a one trick pony, because I think that Jazz Basses are a very versatile bass, and I absolutely love their necks.
Bonus points for Harley Bentons being a great value!

Very informative as always Jonny, really good video once again. It’s always important to keep one eye on the price point when reviewing these instruments so for that kind of money it’s hard to be too critical. I wish this type of quality at an affordable price had been available when I was starting out my bass journey.

Love my HB 75 n, it sounds amazing and l get many comps
2 of my bass player friends here in the US bought them after they heard mine live in my hand and l let them play it
I had 1 tuner problem, HB office gladly sent me another at no charge
Great customer friendly 👍

Got one in Black, fab bass, only small criticism is the weight but great sustain. As for tuners, take the plastic bit out of the back and make some new ones, cheap fix that evens them all out a treat.

Hello i just want to tell you my review of this bass. I buy this bass for my gigs and band practice, bass come out of box and it was perfect. Tuners are good, neck are streight, intonation are fine nothing to complain. Beautiful bass

I just bought one. I've put flatwounds on it and the ashtrays. Sounds great and looks good too.

[shsweb]

Thank you for the positive information. I just had someone recommend Harley to me. I am looking to just begin learning. Would like to pick up an instrument and be able to play and I’m leaning toward bass.

[stephenghudson]

I may have to rethink the idea of getting a jazz style bass from the enhanced series now. Great video.

[richardrichard]

The best colour combo, classic and classy😎👍

[dobly]

I sold mine. Impossible to gig with as it weighs a metric tonne. Quality instrument for the price but loading it with concrete was not good planning.

[AirChurch]

I love your videos. Thanks for covering the knobs.
