“ The Harmony H65N (often referred to as a 70s/80s "8T65N" or similar, manufactured in Japan) is a vintage, solid-body, natural-finish electric bass modeled after the Fender Precision Bass. It typically features a maple neck and body, a single split-coil pickup, and 20 frets, known for a "solid," punchy tone with good sustain.
Key Details of the Harmony H65N Bass:
Era/Origin: Late 1970s to early 1980s, made in Japan.
Design: Solid body, usually with a natural finish, maple neck and body.
Electronics: Single split-coil pickup with one volume and one tone knob (P-Bass style).
Hardware: Often features brass hardware (bridge/nut) and solid tuning machines.
Scale/Nut: 34-inch scale length with a 1 5/8-inch nut width.
Features: Known for a heavy, solid construction compared to other Harmony models.
Condition and Value:
Price: Often sold for a few hundred dollars, considered a good value for a vintage instrument.
Common Issues: Due to age, some models may require shims for the neck, or have worn electronics (pots).
Playability: Generally considered good for beginners or as a collectible, vintage "workhorse".
The H65N should not be confused with the semi-hollow H22 "batwing" bass, which is a different, earlier Harmony model.
