A real five-string at an affordable price

Harley Benton instruments have a history of providing great quality for those on a budget. The Harley Benton MB-5SBK Deluxe Series five-string electric bass is no exception, featuring a signature Rock bass design with solid woods, a splittable humbucker, and a modern matt black finish added to the product range by popular demand, all at a rock bottom price! The bolt-on maple neck with its slim D-profile and six-screw neck joint ensures both a comfortable playing feel and good sustain, and thus the best possible resonance characteristics.

Plenty of punch and a splittable pickup

A poplar body and a bolt-on maple neck are the basis for this five-string bass that feels particularly at home in Rock and Heavy Metal music - where power and punch are indispensable. The humbucker, housed in a tortoiseshell-look pickguard, harmonises perfectly with this particular combination. Both coils can be activated separately via a switch, which like the volume and tone pots is located on the black control plate. Thanks to the slim D-profile of the maple neck with its 21-fret roseacer fingerboard, the Harley Benton MB-5SBK Deluxe Series is also pleasant and comfortable to play, which makes entry into the world of five-string basses a lot easier, especially for beginners or those who are making the transition to bass.

Affordable five-string Rock bass

Due to it affordable price, the Harley Benton MB-5SBK Deluxe Series Bass is aimed primarily at beginners who have to get by on a small budget - after all, an amplifier is also part of a successful start, and that has to be paid for somehow. However, you get a lot of bass for your hard-earned savings here, and your first sessions can definitely start with a cool sound! But advanced players might also find the MB-5 Deluxe Series Bass in Satin Black an ideal backup instrument for the rehearsal room and stage - after all, they get an inexpensive five-string bass that knows how to make itself heard in a band setting and looks good to boot.
