Perfect introduction to 5 string bass!
My first 5 string and I couldn't be happier!
Set up was fine out of the box, no sharp fret edges or anything. Action is good and the neck smooth and accessible up to the highest fret. The P pickup purrs but has some bite if needed and J adds more clarity if you want it.
Build quality is very good and the finish is perfect. The B string is pretty solid, certainly good enough for gigging.
All in all I'm delighted with my first 5 string.

Amazing bass
This 5 string bass is the best bass for beginners everything is amazing about it apart from the slight fret rattle that can be fixed easily with the included Alan key

Another Great HB Guitar
As usual the guitar was really well packed for delivery by Thomann.
I have never owned a 5 string bass guitar before. Previously only played 4 string basses, so this guitar is a bit of a change for me.
Virtually no issues with the guitar, except for me snapping a string while tuning up (always a pain).
However I always plan to change strings straight away, so I bought a set of D'Addarios to restring it.
The guitar played great, straight out the box. Action / intonation great.
So good, one of my friends has asked me to order him the 4 string version, with a HB 40W amp same as I have just purchased.
Thomann will be pleased with the repeat business.

Beyond incredible
Since it's a 5-string bass, it was tricky to get used to it at first but then, the machine itself bewitches. The tone is amazing, strings are high quality. The only problem was that after 20th fret, the strings touch to the magnetics. It's probably because of the bridge calibration. Overall, the guitar is amazing!!

Once you do a proper setup this bass will astonish you!
Received the bass from Germany in 4 days. It actually beat my Ernie Ball Super Slinky strings ordered off Amazon by 2 days despite the promise that the strings would be here next day.
Finish is amazing, no flaws whatsoever. Neck and intonation were set properly from the factory. Action was way to high and I brought it down several millimeters.
Strings that were installed at the factory were awful. B string was completely dead. I didn't panic because I knew I had to re-string and do a proper setup. After spending about an hour on the restring and half an hour on the setup the bass sounds amazing.
So, how does it sound you ask? It has a great growl on the bridge pickup that is present across the basses capable range. This growl really cuts through the mix. The neck pickup is very full and round providing that P-bass tone that sound engineers crave. You have a volume control for each pickup so you can mix them to your individual taste. The single tone control provides a broad range that will allow you to dial in the EQ just how you like!
Overall this bass is an Astounding value for $136 US. Purchase one of these, you won't regret it!
