Bass The World - Harley Benton Signature Bass.

[spyder]

 

Very interesting development.

[Hellzero]

Especially the "high end" version.

 

I'm just checking for a price...

[Jonesy]

Depending on final pricing, it'd be interesting to see if HB can convince people to spend more on their brand.

 

The most expensive 4 string currently comes in at £421 and regular MVs are £240ish.

 

They do look cool though

Gotoh hardware and Klopmann pickups, will certainly be interesting to see where they price this.

I'm a big HB fan and own 3 of there instruments and love there basses but I yesterday purchased a squier cv precision pj bass so I'll have to give these a miss for a lil bit

Probably due to choice of lens and camera setup - it appears enormous compared to Mr. BassTheWorld.

Typical. Just as I stop buying basses.

Nope, the guy, Gregor Fris, is small, that's why he's always filmed from a high angle on his videos.😉

We truly live in the golden age of luthiery.

Thinking about it I dont think I have seen him play in any of his videos. But he does the talking, with his charming accent.

If you go back in time, he used to play, but for an unknown reason, he stopped, preferring to let others do this job.

My kingdom for companies to announce things without making me watch a bloody video

Famous last words

These look appealing; it just goes to show that white pickup covers can work when you co-ordinate them with the rest of the instrument.

 

£400-450 for the Plus, I reckon, going by another HB "signature instrument with quality appointments" guitar that I bought recently.

 

Tempting... not that I need another Jazz, but you all know what it's like 😄
