The only threads I could find on the actual instruments that Hartke made (or just sold) were very old and contained little to no actual information regarding the quality of the basses.

Have any of you fine folks played one. I'm currently on a road trip, and I found one in a pawnshop for less than $100. I'm wondering if it's even worth checking out.

TIA!!!

I bought one years back and still play it to this day. Plays better than some of my more expensive basses

had this one made for me by the Vaccaros some years back... there were less than 300 produced... this one is Asbury Park USA built... some were built in Korea...
