Fret Polishing Rubber (instead of my trusted nail polish). Hello welcome, where have you been all my life?

This weekend, I finally got around to change the strings of my favourite red guitar. The D'Addarios held up well, but they were starting to sound a little dull and they were on that guitar for over a year. Was that too long? Anyway, the guitar sounds much better now! 'addario

After acquiring the Harley Benton Beatbass I got considerably better playing and I was ready for a fullscale bass. Of course Thomann had something special: the RB-414, their take on the Rickenbacker 4000 series. I wanted to buy one in Autumn 2021, but I had to wait until January 2022 until it was available again. It was worth the wait - it looks great and has an unique sound thanks to its humbucker and single-coil pickups!

Before I acquired the Harley Benton RB600 and RB612 guitars, I decided to try my luck with a new bass guitar - and what better to get after the somewhat disappointing Stagg than the HB Beatbass? This very decent clone of the iconic Hofner Violin Bass was perfect to properly learn to play the instrument. I still have a lot of fun with it because it sounds just like the original and is so small and handy.

I was never a big fan of Telecasters and I didn’t really want to buy another guitar last year, but then this beauty was on offer from Thomann and of course I couldn’t resist it! It turned out to be a beautiful and really well playable guitar with a sound I didn’t know I was missing until I heard it. The Roswell pickups put out a very punchy sound and the only drawback is the weight which even tops my old Stratocaster!

This is my favourite guitar nowadays - the Harley Benton HB-35 Plus is a budget version of Gibson’s ES-335 or the Epiphone Casino. Of course I mainly got it because i was watching Marty McFly play it in Back to the Future as a kid - but until recently I never was able to afford a guitar like this. Apart from the vintage looks, it also plays wonderfully and is great for both rock’n’roll and jazz.

The 12-string version of Harley Benton’s RB-600 has the exact same body and electronics as its 6-string-cousin, but has a slightly wider neck to accommodate the string pairs and of course a longer headstock. This is not a junk guitar! It’s a genuine 12-string electric semihollow with two humbucker pickups and a fantastic sound that easily rivals the much more expensive Rickenbackers - for only about 250 Euro!

The Harley Benton RB-600 and RB-612 are of course Thomann’s take on the famous Rickenbacker guitars that George Harrison and John Lennon played in the early 1960s, so as a huge Beatles fan I couldn’t resist them. They are not outright copies of the Rickenbackers, but only a slightly similar and have a mostly original design - but they sound just like the “real” thing and are really fun to play!

While I figure out what else to post in vintage computing and gaming, maybe something musical instead? I’m actually better at playing piano, but i’ve started to play more guitar and bass in the last few of years. Especially since I acquired some wonderful but inexpensive instruments recently - those twins are my Harley Benton RB-600 and RB-612! The 6-string version now resides with my family in Berlin but I still have the 12-string at home.

Harley Benton knobs looking good on a top tier instrument. Reasonably priced replacement knobs for a 2003 Ibanez SR3005 prestige bass that were proving difficult to find. Not affiliated.

@GJGreenlea @eyesquash @hefteronthehabs Yes!.. Different types matter: acoustic, electric, semi-acoustic. Different pickups matter: single coil, humbucker, P-90. Tele, Strat, Les Paul and Jr, ES-335, SG, Jaguar - gotta catch them all! are making this very hard for my wallet lately.
