Customer reviews about Harley Benton Valuestrings Bass 45-105

Exactly without discrepancy

Mr. Tvld 04.11.2020

I was very pleasantly surprised. These are nickel and there is a good difference between these and other nickel strings, they seem to last reasonably well too. I use these on Harley Benton PB-20 SBK Standard Series. Great for punkrock, for "old school" stoner, acid rock etc. The sound is clear, "elastic" bottom, good middle, top without much ringing, but there is no lack of high frequencies. I use these strings first time as i was concerned about something cheaper.

Damn excellent value for money.

Better than I originally thought!

B MacIntosh 23.11.2020

I've decided to re-write my review (and increase my rating), because some of my earlier criticisms were perhaps unjustified.
I'd pointed out excessive fret noise/ buzzing, however it turned out there was an issue with the bass I put them on! Once this was rectified, fret noise was minimal.
I also felt that they were a bit rough on the fingers. However, having played D'Addarios almost exclusively for over 35 years, I admit I was foolish to expect otherwise!
As an experiment, I decided to compare them with the cheapest strings on eBay & Amazon, and I can say without hesitation that the Harley Bentons are far superior.
After playing these strings for some time (and having the bass fixed!), my fingers are now accustomed to the different feel & they're actually not bad at all. I'll definitely be buying more.

Affordable yet functional.

They do what you need them to do.

The sound is ok, and they allow me to change strings weekly if i need to so i can have zing and not cry at my empty pocket. They are probably worse than a 30-40 euro set (as you'd expect), but their price allows me to keep the good strings for recordings.

By the way, they have a weird coating that goes away about an hour in so i wouldn't say it's a problem.

Good for what I need

_LewisGoose 20.06.2022

I’m not a bassist, I use my bass purely for writing purposes and recording little demos to show the band. For my usage these strings are great, especially given the fact the ones I used before were nearly 10 times the price. If you’re not a gigging bassist and the instrument gets little usage (like mine), save your money and but these strings. I’m not sure how long they will last as they’ve only been on for a few days but they’re great so far.

Excellent strings, feel like Slinkys to me.

Paul Reid 21.01.2022

These work excellently, great feel, great tuning stability, good tension, they don't feel cheap and they don't play cheap, they are simply a very good string regardless of price.

.... To spend more would be pointless.

Cheap and Value for Money!

PltonGR 28.06.2022

Couldn't believe in my eyes when I saw the price, I had to try these strings.
Bright sound, feel good but , as everyone would suspect, they don't last for a long time.Come on! They only cost 5 euros! They're perfect for the price, I would buy them again .

Le suono da anni

Mattias 24.04.2014

Come già espresso per le corde per chitarra da sei e da 12 devo dire che le corde per basso sono davvero buone mantengono una brillantezza anche dopo tante suonate difficilmente le si può distinguere da corde di valore molto molto superiore. Inoltre sono molto curate anche dal punto di vista estetico e il rivestimento in seta arancione non guasta.
La filosofia è sempre la stessa avere un prezzo accessibile per delle corde di una discreta qualità non va ad incidere su un portafoglio e quindi queste corde possono essere cambiate continuamente.
Ormai le regalo anche ai miei amici bassisti per fare loro provare e magari farli ricredere sul fatto che siano di cattiva qualità. Ci sono corde più costose che sono altrettanto performanti.
Pochi fronzoli, pochi riguardi a fronte di corde sponsorizzate ed endorcer da pagare. Cosi si abbattono i costi. E la cosa si fa ancora piú interessante se si tiene presente che queste le corde sono anche in versione leggermente più costosa made in the US ehi e disponibili anche per il basso a cinque corde l'unica cosa da tener presente è che la muta da cinque corde è solo per bassi che hanno la conformazione 3 + 2 o 4 + 1 ma non cinque chiavette in linea.
