Frequently Asked Questions - HBV 990AMB Harley Benton
How do I tune the Harley Benton HBV 990AMB bass?
Tune the four strings to E-A-D-G (standard tuning). Use a tuner and turn the tuning pegs at the headstock. The bass has die-cast tuning machines for stable tuning.
What strings fit the HBV 990AMB?
Standard long-scale bass strings (34-inch scale). Common gauges: .045-.105. You can replace with any brand of 4-string electric bass strings.
How do I change the strings?
Loosen the old strings, remove them from the tuning posts and bridge. Thread new strings through the body or bridge (depending on design), pull through to the tuning posts, wind neatly, and tune up. Cut excess string.
What type of pickup does this bass have?
It has two passive J-style single-coil pickups. They produce a classic bright and punchy sound, controlled by two volume knobs and one tone knob.
Does the bass require batteries?
No, the HBV 990AMB is a fully passive instrument. It does not use batteries. All controls are passive (volume and tone).
How do I clean and maintain my bass?
Wipe the body and neck with a soft dry cloth after playing. Use a damp cloth (water only) for stubborn dirt and dry immediately. Condition the rosewood fingerboard with lemon oil every few months. Keep the instrument in a stable environment (40-60% humidity).
What is the warranty period?
Harley Benton typically offers a 2-year warranty on musical instruments. Keep your purchase receipt. Contact the retailer or Harley Benton support for warranty claims.
Can I adjust the action (string height)?
Yes, you can adjust the bridge saddles for height and intonation. Use a small hex key (usually 3mm or 4mm) to raise or lower each saddle. Also, the truss rod in the neck can be adjusted for relief, but proceed carefully.
What is the best way to transport the bass?
Use a padded gig bag or hard case to protect the instrument from bumps and temperature changes. Always loosen the strings slightly if storing for long periods to reduce neck tension.
Where can I find spare parts for the HBV 990AMB?
Common spare parts (knobs, jack, strap buttons, tuning pegs) are available online from music stores or directly from Harley Benton. For specific parts, contact Harley Benton customer service.
