I was speaking to a guy at the rehearsal studio we use, he'd just bought and was very pleased with this Harley Benton which is cheaper https://m.thomann.de/gb/harley_benton_b_25m_acoustic_bass.htm He was having a bit of a plonk on it and it certainly sounded the business. He said that he wasn't expecting the high quality for the relatively low cost.

Sounds like there's a newspaper headline in there.. " 69 Year Old 'Super Cool Bass Man' Actually Noticed by Attractive 17 Year Old Girl!"

Personally I've got a PB 50 - very good & doesn't feel/sound like a " cheap" bass. Theres a lot of BC love for Harley Benton - just do a quick search there's quite a few threads

Some kind of Harley Benton ? https://www.thomann.de/gb/harley_benton_electric_basses.html Great value for money

That'd blow me away...

Without wanting to sound like a self righteous tosspot .. I'm most proud of getting involved in the " world famous" BC Bass Relay started by @Jimryan a few years back

MMMh tasty 🍰..Looks good . Out of curiosity what colour is the scratchplate?

To me, these additions ramp it up to Cringe Factor 10😎

I had a shiny black Pro version a while back - I thought it was pretty col - but maybe not for a wee fat middle aged man. I don't recall any great neck dive issues. Sold it to a young skinny rock dude & I'm sure they were very well suited. Anyway my nephew who I think is 16 or 17 just bought this ... pocket still safe?😌 i

Pesky varmint!

Yeah- none of these dodgy stickers😉

Here you go...

I must admit I find any bass solo tiresome and self indulgent. Gerry used to to something similar on Bullfrog Blues.

I've got one of these bad boys.. very under rated. Feels ,plays ,sounds and in my opinion looks great.
