Harley Benton B650 six string bass SOLD £90 Bristol

[Manwithvan]

A great sound for the price, and it's an impressively even output across the range. I haven't discovered any problems with the construction and it's been easy to set up with a low action. The neck is a bit too chunky for my medium hands and small fingers, and I have an Ibanez sixer which suits me better.

That's a fair price; a lot of folks seem to want to sell the HB's for more than they are new!

I too have seen HBs advertised for more than the Thomann price. 

I'm actually tempted by this. I have never played a 6er but having the 4 string version of this I know just how good they are. 

Which side of Bristol are you? (pm'd you)

Hey - what can I say? I am a weak and feeble man. 

There's a Bentley Hardon I don't own, and it's for sale, and it's just up the road. You do the maths.

I think that "accidental" misnomer does say a lot! 🙂

As you're a convert, I dare say I was flipping amazed by how decent the output is.

It tends to 'pop' when switched between active and passive, but I never played it live.

I'm central Bristol. PM replied to.
