Affordable classic

electric bass Harley Benton JB-20 CA Standard Series

The Harley Benton JB-20 is a four-string bass that is especially interesting for bassists who prefer the look and sound of a classic, but don't want to spend a fortune on it. In terms of design and features, the JB-20 is based on the well-known American model from the 60s and already offers amazing sonic flexibility with two pickups and passive electronics. A simple bass with no battery and no limitations at a price that won't break the bank.

Reduced to the limit

A poplar body, a maple neck, and a laurel fingerboard are the basis of the Harley Benton JB-20. Just like the original, it has a bolt-on neck design, which ensures a sound with plenty of attack. 20 frets offer enough space for basslines of all kinds and the neck itself, which is 38mm wide at the nut and features a C profile, promises an instantly familiar, comfortable playing feel. Two pickups and passive electronics with a volume control for each pickup and a master tone control have always been part of the "JB" signature sound, and the JB-20 is no exception. That's all it takes to make musical history, but it's not only the sound that counts: So do the instrument's looks. The JB-20's design, finish, vintage-style machine heads, and pickguard all contribute to its authentic appearance, and the Candy Apple finish gives it a modern yet understated appearence.

Great sound at an affordable price

The Harley Benton JB-20 is clearly aimed at musicians who are price-conscious but still want to get their hands on the look, feel, and sound of a classic. Stylistically, the JB-20 cannot be squeezed into just one category. In terms of sound, it is at home everywhere - from Pop, Rock, Funk, and Soul to R&B and Jazz - thanks to its two pickups. Beginners looking to find out whether playing the bass is something they enjoy will be particularly pleased with the low price, as will musicians who would like to acquire a decent bass as a second instrument.

Leuke budget bas.
Sjonnie 03.08.2021
Ik heb deze bas in totaal 4x besteld, en 3x terug gestuurd.

Het eerste exemplaar uit 2016 was een fantastische bas,
maar die had ik helaas verkocht om geld vrij te maken
voor iets anders.

Omdat ik spijt had van die verkoop heb ik de bas opnieuw
besteld, maar helaas hadden alle huidige exemplaren
wat kleine issues, waardoor ik ze weer geretourneerd heb.

Over het algemeen is deze bas voor deze prijs een uitstekend
instrument. Het geluid, de afwerking , en de algemene indruk
zijn goed, maar de minpuntjes zit in kleine dingen zoals
fretbuzz bij lage actie, niet goed aanvoelende stemmechanieken, en pickups die bij de hoge snaren
meer volume geven dan bij de lage snaren, en wat ook
met afstellen niet in balans te krijgen was.
Dit laatste zou ook nog met de snaren te maken
kunnen hebben.

Samengevat:
Een goede bas voor de prijs die je ervoor betaald,
maar soms toch wat kleine dingen die niet optimaal zijn.

Als laatste een algemene opmerking:
Ik heb best veel gekocht bij Thomann, maar ook een
behoorlijk aantal artikelen weer geretourneerd
omdat ze toch niet helemaal bevielen.

De service van Thomann is wat dat betreft geweldig,
er wordt nooit moeilijk gedaan, en alles is uitstekend
geregeld. Dit is zeker het vermelden waard!

Voor 109 euro is inderdaad niet een 10/10 bass te verwachten maar als je net ben begonnen is het een aanrader maar als je al wat langer speel raad ik aan om iets anders te kiezen

JB20 CA Bass.

This bass guitar is an impressively assembled instrument.
The range of authentic Jazz Bass tones are all there for the finding.
It's appearance and quality of finish is also a delight.
The bass handles well and came perfectly set-up.
The minor adjustments made for personal preferences were easily made.
An ideal instrument from beginner through to intermediate use.
And also a go-to bass for all other music making.
Many of Thomann' s customers who have commented on product value for money are correct to do so, and the JB 20 CA bass is certainly no exception.
It joins the JB 20 Sunburst Bass previously purchased, to which Flat Wound Strings are now fitted. This also gives a good performing instrument.
After many years of listening to my eldest son practising bass for his gigs, I picked up an old Westone Thunderer1A bass he had left with me on leaving home. I now spend happy hours, making the same noises he used to, and have my own collection of basses from which to choose.
Thomann' s is always my preference for any items I need to follow my retirement interests..
