Product Info
* Prices may vary. Check retailer for current pricing and availability.
This Harley Benton 5-string is a real surprise – it offers a lot of quality for the price. The single-coil pickups give it a unique, almost upright bass-like tone, while the caramelized neck feels fantastic. It's perfect for players wanting a versatile, vintage-inspired sound without the premium price tag.
