I am selling my Harley Benton JB-75MN SB, I bought it new from Thomann about 2 years ago to use as a 'travel bass' https://harleybenton.com/product/jb-75mn-sb/

 

It is as standard other than I had a luthier give it a 'set up' and install Nectite Bolt-On neck threaded inserts and screws so I could easily take the neck on and off whilst travelling (although I ended up using a hard case when flying and didn't remove the neck).  I have used it to practice in hotel rooms and whilst working abroad, it is generally in good condition with a few minor marks on the top of the headstock as shown.

 

It plays nicely, has a slim neck and low action and is surprisingly well made considering the price new, the only minor criticism I would make is that it is on the heavy side at just over 5kg.

 

The bass just comes with the strap fitted, no case or bag and I am not prepared to post it, buyer collects from Tenbury Wells.  If there is not much interest here then I will post on local Facebook market as I appreciate people may not want to travel for a low value item such as this.

 

I think it would be a good choice for an adult beginner, a backup or even as a mod platform.

 

PM me with any questions

I thought the price would be added automatically, clearly not
