Harley Benton American True Sound Demo Using Portable Speakers

 Harley Benton American True Sound is the same as the Joyo American Sound. Bought mine from Thomann and it arrived as expected. Really love it. And I tested it using an ordinary portable speaker to know how it sounds if it's plugged directly on a hi-fi speaker and not from a guitar amp. I was surprised, it sounded good. So here's the video of my test run. Hope you like it.

Amazon 3-in-1 UHF Lavalier wireless mic review

 

Ordered this one through Amazon US because my cousin send me a gift voucher and when we redeemed it, I wasn't aware of what Im clicking and I ended up putting it as US account. Anyways, managed to use the gift voucher and just paid for the delivery.

It came through and delivered after 5 days or so. The unit is small but really good. Especially the clip on mic. It straight forward. I had problems with connections because there's quite few different leads like for phones vs for PA or speaker system. Also the headset one, at first, I wasnt sure how to put it on but managed to figure it out after. It should be going to the back rather than like a traditional headphones.

Last but not the least, because it's rechargeable, it is really handy. 

Overall, it's really good purchase.  Just watch the video, if I missed something, you can just leave a comment and if you want to share something also please don't hesitate to post in the comment section. Cheers!

Gear4Music Digital Piano DP10x Review

This digital piano was from my workplace and I play this one each time Im at work. Love it! There are pros and cons but for the most part I enjoyed this one.

Pros:

Solid built. 3 pedals like a proper piano. Got a slide cover so it's safe for accidentally spillage and when there are kids around. Touch response and expressive. Sound quality pretty decent and loud volume when turned all the way up. Lots of connectivity options like Aux in and RCA input/output with separate volume knob. USB and MIDI option. Headphones hanger and 2 outputs. Layer, Split and Twin options for piano lesson. Cons:

Very heavy unit, the keys are plastic and looks ordinary like home keyboards, there are more better and more realistic sounding digital piano, but other instruments like strings, flute, organ, nylon guitar sounds decent.

Here's the specs: - 88 Keys - Im not sure if it's hammer action but I think it's semi weighted and touch response - The feel and looks of the keys is plastic like the ones from keyboard (synthetic ebony and ivory) - The sound quality and the volume is really good and can get loud if turned all the way up,. - 55 demo songs - split mode, layer mode, twin mode which I havent tried yet or explored. - reverb and chorus option which also I havent tried. - headphones hanger and 2x headphones output. - speaker output 2 x 15w - Three pedals (soft, sostenuto and sustain) - Aux input and output RCA - USB to host (MIDI and audio), 5-pin MIDI connectivity - 24 voices and maximum 64 polyphony.

Solution to this hot weather; Dimplex Ion Fresh Cooling Tower Fan

 

Unboxing and how to assemble this Dimplex Ion Fresh Cooling Tower fan. Solution to this very hot weather. 

It has 3 speed level which you can adjust manually or depending on the mode, it automatically adjust on its own and reduces speed or varies speed.

There are 4 modes: Normal, Natural, Sleep and Easy.

Normal mode: The fan run continuously on whatever speed you set it.

Natural mode: The fan tapers or automatically changes the speed from high speed for 15 seconds then goes down to middle for 15 seconds and down to low for 15 seconds then cycle repeats. This mode is trying to emulate the natural breeze.

Sleep mode: If you put the fan on high speed during sleep mode, it reduces the speed after 30 mins, so it goes down to middle for 30 mins and then down to low for 30 mins and stays there until you turn it off or the timer is finished. However, if you put the fan on middle speed on sleep mode, then it will stay there for 30 mins then goes down to low til you manually turn it off or the timer is finished. 

Easy mode: The fan will start oscillating, ioniser is on, timer is automatically set to 3 hours, and the fan will initially start at high speed for 15 mins, then down to middle for 15 mins and then down to low until the fan stops/timer finished.

Other features of this fan are: Oscillation (makes the fan swing air in the room), Timer (can be manually set up to what time you want the fan to be on or depending on the mode like Easy Mode which is auto-set to 3 hours), Ioniser (discharges negative Ions in the air to combat airborne impurities and help creates cleaner fresher air), Tilt to change the angle of the fan and the LED that shows the temperature of the room.

Creative Stage Air Under Monitor Powered Soundbar Review

 

Creative Stage Air Portable and Compact Under-monitor USB-powered soundbar that is used for desktop and portability.

Engineered with functionality and usability in mind, the Creative Stage Air is a compact, under-monitor soundbar for your computer. It features a sleek and minimalistic style that is designed to fit into any desktop settings. Custom-tuned to deliver impressive audio, the Stage Air also comes with a playtime of up to 6 hours for fuss-free music enjoyment!

It is loud enough and there's a good balance between bass and treble. I think it looks bigger but some small rechargeable bluetooth speaker like the JBL flip sounds about the same or sounded better than this in my opinion.  Perhaps in depends on the usage and the environment. So far Im still happy with it. Will keep you posted if I got some updates to it. Cheers!

I Want To Learn The Bass Review

 

This ebook is super easy to use and it's really intended for beginners. Also the link videos are awesome because it is super simple and easy to understand. The music theory side is not overwhelming. But it is also presented and given importance to the learner so that at the start, they will already got a background or knowledge about theory. There are self-taught musicians who struggles theory because it was not presented to them and they mostly dive in to learn the song or music without any basic knowledge about notes and music theory in general. 

Im looking forward for the upcoming series for this eBook. Im excited on what's ahead and how people using this eBook is going to progress. I think this eBook is affordable but not cheap in terms of content.

SyeJam Compression Gloves Review

 

Bought mine from eBay. It was straight-forward transaction and delivered on time. But it was like 4-5 days. The breathable fabric is ok. I bought a medium size glove. Tried using it while playing the guitar but it's a bit tricky because it's a compression gloves so it's a bit tight. 

Been using this for quite a while now and I don't see or feel any benefits yet. I think it's good as a glove that will keep your fingers and hands warm but the therapeutic claim is yet to be proven. Also because it's a bit too tight, it can be uncomfortable for prolonged hours of use. I feel like my fingers are getting numb. Im not sure if it's intended that way. Anyways, Im still happy with my purchase because it feels like with this cold weather, it's helping my hands to stay warm. 

How long to inflate and deflate the Trespass Double Premium Raised Air Bed

 

Trespas Double Raised Air Bed Inflatable Mattress from Argos 

Packaging Size (LxWxH): 39.0 x 19.0 x 35.5 cm. 

PVC mattress. 

Internal coil structure for enhanced support. 

Inflates in 140 seconds, deflates in 25 seconds. 

Built-in electric pump (included). 

Waterproof. 

Airtight system. 

Double lock valve. 

Repair kit. 

Carry bag. 

Double height bed. 

Size H38, L190, W141cm. 

Maximum user weight 295kg.

I don't think that it is fully inflated in 140 seconds and the 25 seconds was too short to fully deflate this unit.  I think the manufacturer claims on the instructional manual as 5 minutes to inflate and 5 minutes to deflate which is ideal because on the test that I've done it didn't reach 5 minutes but when I deflated it, it was close to 5 minutes. There's only few seconds left or under a minute.

I did not use the inflatable pillows because it's too thin and you have to inflate it manually. Good thing I got a pump for my son's bicycle. Also another annoying thing about the pillows is that it's got like a hook at the back which you can connect on the bed. So if you don't use the pillow, that thing is protruding on the bed. Apart from these, I think the unit is lovely.

Are you looking for a shortscale bass guitar gigbag?

Here's the solution if you are like me that is looking for a softcase or a gigbag for your shortscale bass guitar. I recently bought a Harley Benton PB Shorty and I love it. So in preparation for me to go live gigs, band rehearsals, busking and travels, I will need a carry case or a gigbag. I had hard time looking for a shortscale gigbag. There's not many around and the measurement of this Harley Benton PB shorty is like in the middle. So if I buy a regular bass gigbag it will be too big and loose. If I buy or use my electric guitar gigbag, it's shorter like an inch or two. So I was in a dilemma. 

Good thing I found this Thomann BeatBass gigbag and the measurement even though it's not exactly the same as the Harley Benton PB Shorty, but looks like it will work. So I measured my bass and compare it and yeah it fits. there few cm extra here and there but it's not massive difference. 

Also I've read on some review that the Fender Bronco fits this gigbag as well. So that was the one that made me decide to buy this gigbag.

Hope this helps you guys. 

Here's the details of this gigbag:

• With backpack straps
• 20 mm foam padding
• Metal fittings
• External pocket
• Inner dimensions: 112 x 34 x 11 cm
• Suitable for Harley Benton Beat-Bass

 

Harley Benton PB Shorty Review and Unboxing

Here's the link if you're interested to buy this bass: Harley Benton PB Shorty

I recently bought this shortscale bass from Thomann which is called Harley Benton PB Shorty. It's really nice bass guitar especially for beginner like myself. Also because I am a guitarist and Im so use to small guitar this is a very good transition for me.

Out of the box I just tuned the bass and immediately able to play with it. It was also delivered on time and well packed and safe during transport. The sound quality of this bass is very good considering its pricepoint. I only paid £77 for the bass, VAT and delivery fee. By the way, I bought this as B-stock bass.

The frets were a bit sharp but I filed it and it made a big difference. Im quite happy with the setup. The action is okay for me but may be some might find it a bit high. But to me I think it's a regular height. The intonation needs a bit of attention especially on the upper part of the fretboard but it can be remedied by getting the bass setup by a professional. 

Overall I love it and will be keeping this bass.
