Harley Brilliant!

This is nicely made and enjoyable to play instrument. For the money it’s utterly brilliant.
I initially bought the similar bass by Ibanez which was quite nice, but had a faulty tuner so I sent it back to Thomann.
I thought I’d try this because the tuner fault felt like a design flaw on the switch of the Ibanez and I wasn’t keep on getting another.
The Harley Benton is easily as good, if not better. It’s slightly smaller which I like because it’s mainly for playing unplugged on the sofa. Plugged into a Markbass practice amp it sounds pretty good (tame the treble with the onboard EQ). I prefer the satin finish compared to the open pore of the Ibanez. The intonation, action and finish are all good.
I will probably treat myself to a set of those fancy Daddario strings, but the ones that come with it are fine.
I’ve no idea how it compares to the more expensive one that inspired it… you know the one. However I did own a Taylor GS mini guitar at one point and I’d say it compares favourably to that in build quality and general feel.
I can’t recommend it enough! Especially with Thomann’s no quibble return policy if you find you have a dud one.
