Harley Benton MB-5LH SBK

The Harley Benton MB-5LH SBK is a surprisingly high quality and affordable left-handed bass guitar option for musicians who appreciate high sound quality, playability, and stylish looks.

One of the first impressions of this guitar is its appearance. It looks very stylish with its matte black body and contrasting white trim, giving it a modern and aggressive look. This goes perfectly with its sound and character.

In terms of sound, the Harley Benton MB-5LH SBK does not disappoint. It is equipped with two humbucker pickups that deliver a powerful and rich sound with great attack and deep bass. This makes this guitar an ideal choice for genres that require a heavier sound such as rock, metal or punk.

Another advantage of this guitar is its affordable price. Compared to other left-handed bass guitars on the market, the Harley Benton MB-5LH SBK offers high quality and great sound at a very attractive price, making it an ideal choice for musicians on a tight budget.

Overall, the Harley Benton MB-5LH SBK is a great left-handed bass guitar that offers a great combination of style, quality, and affordability. It is ideal for musicians playing a variety of genres and will be a trusted companion on any stage or in the recording studio.

Seems from the previous comments, that I’m also a lucky one - no frets sticking out, no tuning gears flew off, paint is still there - I mean, how much bang should one expect for 140 euros?

This has actually the same build quality, but has smoother neck and overall finish, compared to my 17 year old and also my first 4 string Ibanez GSR200L bass. And I actually paid double for the Ibanez at that time.

So if all of these 5 string Harley Benton lefties are have now higher quality control standards, then I’ll recommend this to any lefty bassist, who is struggling to find a first instrument or a new instrument.
This is my 5th bass, but my first 5 string.

Thanks Thomann and to Harley Benton!
