Harley Benton UkeBass Mahogany

I moved to different country not long ago and needed some tool to practice and do songwriting stuff on the go without putting heavy load on my wallet. So I bought this thing because it seemed affordable and good looking.
The truth is it is really fun to play Harley Benton U-Bass. That what I unexpectedly discovered the moment I pulled it from the nice gigbag included in the package.
It has surprisingly deep, almost throaty double-bass-like sound which I didn't expect from such a small instrument.
The tuning stability and intonation are decent. Onboard preamp and tuner both work good (2 CMOS-style battaries are included).
The frets are a bit scratchy on the ends (plastic neck binding doesn't help much here) but not drastically. There are also some minor (barely visible) finish imperfections.
All in all I wish I could've got it years ago.

I got it for noodling around, having a super portable bass (the other bass I have is a six string), and just for a different sound to have.
It makes you play different (duuh), also you can reach intervals you couldn't before.
The E and A strings were a little buzzy, so I had to raise the strings (release the truss rod - counter clockwise turns, 90 degrees at a time).
The tuner is great, the preamp seems versatile.
The reason for 4 stars in quality was that the first one I got had a bridge problem - thinner strings sounded wayyyy louder than the fatter ones. I found a fix for it online, but having just gotten the instrument, I went for replacing it and keeping my warranty. People at Thomann were super helpful and in some time I received my replacement and it was great!
It's a lot of instrument, especially for this price. Definitely a recommend
