[@RobVespa]

Thanks for the nice video! I commented on the "Best of 2022" video and came here for more information... because less than two years later, this 2022 bass-of-the-year is oddly no longer available. This all seems strange! Edit: I reached out to Harley Benton, who responded almost immediately. I'm a bit flabbergasted (in enough of a good way to roll out that ole chestnut) by how helpful and responsive they were! The JP-45OP is only available via their European store and is presently out of stock... but a revamped version (fingers crossed it's even better!) will be returning at the end of the year (that seems so far away). So, good news for those who are patient!

[@TheEssexCat]

I've had the 5 string version for a few weeks now, my first Harley Benton, and the first time I've purchased an instrument unseen. It's an amazing bass, in both build and playability, I'm really surprised at how good it is!

[@LowEndLobster]

Glad to hear it! My 5'er is solid as well. Review for that will be coming soon :)

I got the Fretless and their Bass VI, and both just do all the things well. Pretty much the same review as this.

[@sunn_bass]

Great to see you back. Interesting bass, sounds like a winner considering the price. I give this bass a 100% chance of being modified in another video. If you upgrade the pickups, instead of putting in some pricier set which we know will make a bass sound better, it would be interesting to use more budget friendly pickups such as ones offered by Guitar Fetish, the eBay seller True Custom Shop or any other budget brand ones. Since many folks buying lower priced basses use lower priced pickups for their upgrades, so do budget pickups actually make budget basses sound better than the stock pickups?

[@surlydogstudio]

I already have and absolutely love the JJ-45OP. You've convinced me that I also need a PJ combo in my life. Just got my tracking number this morning and it's scheduled to be on my doorstep four days from now. Thank you, Low End Lobster!

This one of the most problem-free instruments I think I've heard you review, including lots of more expensive one. No downsides! That's amazing. In the last few months, I got the Bass VI, and a 4-string fretless. Both are absolutely fine - no problems, great sound, does all the things. I'm truly surprised. The fretless in particular checks every box.

[@michaelkeefer4293]

Welcome back Lobster! It's great to have you back, hope the kitty is doing well! Thanks for the thorough (as always) review of this bass. The one very minor negative I could tell about the bass from your review is that there was hardly, if any , difference between the tone at full and 50%. I know you mentioned it's not as bad as being an "on/off" control but it seems like 90% of it's range is below the half way mark. But that is hardly a gripe when considering its price tag! May end up picking one these up and doing a couple mods myself. 👍

[@ilpatongi]

When you buy one of these off of Thomann you also get all the stuff you need to upgrade one, and build a monster bass for under 600/700 dollars with premium woods, amazing electronics and hardware. Nice

Lobster I missed your premier return. This is a grand slam. I will be following the multiple buy advice.

[@Bass.Player]

The 5 string version (natural) arrived today and it's in really good shape. It has the dark roasted neck and only needs the nut cut and just a little bit of fret end work. The fret ends are good just like they are but they can be a little better. The top dark colored dots on the fretboard are hard for me to see on the dark roasted fretboard.... easy change.

[@LowEndLobster]

Well for one, not a whole lot going on cosmetically. And cheap (though playable) hardware all the way around. I used to have a harley benton MM copy. Loved that bass. Wish I'd never sold it but the fret board was a little too tight/narrow for my liking (like a low end ibanez)

@@LowEndLobster I just got the Aria Pro II Detroit MK-2. I had to see what the "genuine article" might have going for it, in addition to all the commonalities which make the HB so great. The color (blue again) of my HB is quite a bit more attractive than the sunburst (which is nice, but not super cool looking). Not certain whether I prefer the HB over this new Aria. Which doesn't seem as enjoyable to play (though the specs, right down to the screw pattern on the control cavity in the back, are indeed identical). Neck feels different somehow on the Aria. Could it be the different resonance of the rosewood board? Not sure, but it's something (and both are set up nicely similar). Jury still out, so I'ma go put the Aria through its paces with some Mike Watt tunes. May be the decider.

@@justinkline1294 Thanks for the update! I hope to check out one of the Arias in the future as well. I really like the HBs a lot

[@justinkline1294]

@@LowEndLobster The Aria definitely sounds meaner and much more clangy. Kind of opposite what I expected for result of the maple v. rosewood debate. But a definite, noticeable difference. And I love the crisp tone from my JP-45OP. Detroit just got more to it somehow. Playability still goes to the HB though -- by a fair stretch. Best feeling neck that ever I have played upon. Fit and finish also clearly go HB's way. If I got to choose one, then I would buy HB. Still my relatively newfound #1 bass.

@@LowEndLobster And the Aria is heavier in the neck (almost dive, but not quite) because of the heft of larger tuners. The HB just more comfortable to play.

[@bassnyc1]

Great to see you back, Lobster! I've been subscribed to the channel since it started. I know you've reviewed many pickups from a lot of different manufacturers but in my opinion, especially recently, your choice of pickups for mods has been a bit heavy towards EMG. I'm not knocking them. I have a set of Geezers in one of my P basses and I love it but there are lots of other pickups you can try. For this HB in the video, I kept thinking that Aguilar makes a PJ set that would go absolutely perfect with this bass. I really wish you'd give EMG a rest for a while.

[@robjones7725]

There is a massive volume drop with the tone all the way down but does sound very nice and the finish is great! Great slap sounds!

Hi Lobster and thanks for this review. I bought that bass in April, so I tested it thoroughly and like it. There is one flaw I want to mention, the dots on the neck should be white. Can't see the dots when playing in dim light and that can be very annoying (there are 24 frets over there ;-) Except that, I fully agree with you review, the quality is very good, especially the fretting and the whole roasted neck.

Thanks Lobster and welcome back. I already had the JJ version and this gave me the itch to order the JP also. They really are fantastic for the money. For some reason the JP is currently cheapest in blue so that's what I ordered this time (my JJ is also white). I will do something about the tortoise pickguard since I think it's a poor match for the blue color though, maybe I'll paint it or put some film on it. Does anyone have tips on how to get a good result?

[@Aguirrethewrathofgod]

Welcome back! I wonder whether it is possible for you to review the Markbass MB GV4, a budget jazz bass made by Markbass. Not a lot of information could be found online.

[@VeitLehmann]

This reminds me very much of my 80s Japanese Aria Pro II RSB Standard, a slim P-style bass that I also snagged for less than 200€. I'd get this one if I didn't already have my Aria (would be free shipping for me 😜). But maybe I'll upgrade it with a Wilkinson bridge and an affordable AlNiCo pickup (Wilkinson or ToneRider). I like that kind of vintage Japan style, especially nice for beginners with the streamlined shape, and it looks more stylish than most of the other rather bland beginner basses. The P pickup placement further towards the neck on this one also helps with getting a sharp slap sound.

[@justinkline1294]

The sound is right. And if that's what counts most, then it's solid. You are also correct that the electronics sound crisp, clear and high-quality. Then, way to place the tone of a high value capacitor. That's quite impressive to me (I have a thing for tone caps). Lastly, Trev Wilkinson wouldn't lend his awesome bridge to a bass that sucked. All in other words, I'm convinced. Thanks for the great review.

[@mathewcumming4637]

Love your work lowend. The HB and aria are exactly the same price in New Zealand. You kinda reviewed two basses at once aye?

It's Chinese Ash which hasn't been hit as hard by pests/diseases as the American/European species. That's how budget brands can still get their hands on ash.

Great review, thanks. I wanted to get one at Thomann, but nope, not available in white any more. Experienced this also with other Harley Benton models, only very few months after their release, the desired finish is not available any more. Seems they produce only a certain amount of a model and finish, and once these are sold that's it. Thus regarding your remark, if anything happens to it you can always replace it... well not really. If you were lucky and got one of these in white, better take good care of it, as there is no re-order any more, only the natural and sunburst finish are left available, as per today.
