SmudgyBuggler Posted November 5, 2025 Posted November 5, 2025 (edited) Hello! I'm from the continent... played guitar for quite a few years and wanted to try something new, so I bought a bass a few days ago! After watching BassBuzz's reviews of Cheap Arse Basses, I found a used Harley Benton PB-20 BK (never played, included a decent gig bag too). Fit and finish is not that bad, really. Certainly this can get me started. So, I am looking forward to learning something new! Edited November 5, 2025 by SmudgyBuggler Quote

It is one of the reasons I was curious to switch to bass. Edited November 7, 2025 by SmudgyBuggler 1 Quote
