Harley Benton HBV 990GBY 4/4 Electric Violin

The body of the Harley Benton HBV 990GBY is made of birch with a green, blue, and yellow oval pattern. The maple neck features a glued-on maple fingerboard - in this case coloured black. The tailpiece features a set of fine-tuners to facilitate uncomplicated and precise tuning of the violin. The pickup unit is active (i.e. equipped with a preamp) and allows the volume to be controlled via a rotary knob on the underside of the instrument, while the three faders adjust the bass, middle, and treble frequencies as desired. The compartment for the 9V battery that powers the pickup system and the mount for the chin rest are also located on the underside. Two mini-jack sockets (3.5mm) are placed laterally so that headphones and an external sound source, such as an MP3 player, can be connected. These features are very useful when practising: For example, backing tracks can be listened to using headphones.
