fusdepilee Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 Just pulled the trigger on one of these badboys (my first foray into the crazy world of 6 strings) Got a pretty amazing deal of £90 so I couldn't resist! Anyone had any experience with these? I know the general feeling on here is that the HB kit is fantastic value for money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annoying Twit Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 A number of people have the previous HB 6 string model. I have one badged as a Shine, not a HB. I've not noticed anyone who has the new 'progressive' model that you have purchased. It will be interesting to hear what you think of yours.

kodiakblair Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 I know a few folks with the 5 string version and a couple with fretless 5's, can't remember hearing any complaints. £90 for an active 6 string has got to be a record. I'll be watching for your NBD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fusdepilee Posted March 14, 2015 Author Share Posted March 14, 2015 Tell me about it! I couldn't buy it fast enough - always wanted to try a 6 string so at this price I don't feel like I will lose out much even if I don't take to it. IMHO quite a nice looker as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UglyDog Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 Bargain let's face it, 90 quid is peanuts these days. You can spend more than that on one gig ticket or a couple of nights out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karlbbb Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Also considering getting back into playing bass after a few years away, and just want something cheap to see how my wrists take it. What are your feelings on this? It's about £110 now but seems like it should still be worth a punt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kodiakblair Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 There's a fella Gullum on the Harley Benton forum who posted this. https://www.indabamusic.com/opportunities/jessi-malay-noises-remix-contest/submissions/f71b1f7a-16ba-11e5-a522-0e52404cc67c That's him using his B-650 and an L-450 guitar on some kind of wikiloops type track,sounds a bit quiet but I think the idea is to showcase the singer.Still Gulum is happy to use his B-650 and that says a lot for a £110 instrument Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
