Harley Benton – GuitarBass – A guitar players bass
Is this a guitar on steroids or a six-string bass with a guitar scale length? Both! In the early days of the legendary band Cream, Jack Bruce showed us the magic you can conjure up on a baritone guitar – here you’re getting the best of both worlds. Tuned as a guitar but dropped one whole octave, the Harley Benton GuitarBass has a nato wood body and a bolt-on maple neck with a Makassar ebony fretboard. Featuring a scale length of 30 inches, it comes loaded with three punchy HB Alnico 5 single coils. The 3-Tone Sunburst finish gives this instrument the cool, vintage vibe of the Swinging Sixties!

The biggest reason I got a Squier Bass VI over the Harley Benton Guitarbass was the strangle switch on the Bass VI.
People in the comments are clearly unfamiliar with Bass VI and the entire family of baritones it started from many manufacturers
You guys should make multiscale basses since almost all of them are over 1,000
If you give me a free guitarbass I'll do a whole album with it and give you full publishing
I have a Harley Benton VT series, But don't know the year. I love the feel of the neck, it is used and someone bent the high E tuner, but I still can tune it. All the switches work and there are a few scratches on the body, but otherwise it's a well made guitar.
Sounds like shlt.
Absolutely worst intro to sell a guitar ever. Erase first part
wish you guys released a victory modern or ex modern with ss frets. would love that
Sounds horrible. Failed concept for an instrument or a bad demo that doesn’t play to its strengths? I wouldn't buy this without seeing another demo that "sells" it to me better…
This guy must like to bother my hears????
Hire better people those two dudes aren’t best good
Hack those strings! How awful is this guitar???
An electric guitar that sounds like a bass?! Good grief!!!
So nice! Bumd me out though that all of these bass 6 type guitars all look the same, can we get a different colorway?
"Jack Bruce showed us the magic you can conjure up on a baritone guitar"
This is not a baritone guitar, it is a bass VI. Bari's are tuned to A or B which a fourth or fifth higher than this instrument.
C'mon HB, know your own instruments. You make 'em
ok but do a DC version with humbuckers, OK? THANKS.
Sounds cool. What tuning are you using
I love HB guitars, however, I dont like this one, it doesn't have a sound I like, it isn't a regular guitar sound or baritone or bass, its neither one or the other.
How ABOUT a bass player's guitar? ;oP
Looks interesting. Might have to test that one
It sounds horrible. extrememly poorly setup too. not the best example you could have made imo.
Es bastante truño….
Hej liebe Thommänner,
und warum gibt es dieses Instrument nicht für lefties?
And why isn't this great instrument available for lefties?
I'd love to play some great Rock and Roll tunes ala Hank the Knife and the Jets… But there is no affordable 6-Bass available for Lefties… So YOU should do it..
The first Harley Benton that I purchased and that I played!! One of my favourite instruments for its uniqueness, which allows you to try peculiar playing between bass and guitar!! I love it more than words can describe!! ❤
Pls stop using 'vintage' tuners – they're a pain to replace. Also, consider using SS frets for all your guitars.
WTF ???? NONSENSE DEMO, IT SOUNDS AWFUL
Shite demo though…
It sounds horrible. Better use an octivider…
Beatleful!
Will there be a lefty version?
Cool stuff ????
this is nice
