Harley Benton Shorty 4 String Mini ‘Precision’ **ON HOLD** 👍👍 £40 North Staffordshire

[dodgnofski]

Nice little well sorted Shorty with a low playable action and no sharp frets - so ideal for a learner or someone with small hands, or as a back up bass & is also perfect for 'sofa noodling' too.

 

Good quality components and nicely put together, plus the neck is a pleasure to play & feels very Fender - esque.

 

Sound is great with powerful pickups plus a very good tonal range & a nice set up -  in fact the only downside is that it does suffer somewhat from the obligatory neck dive, but should be OK on a decent width none slip strap and of course it’s fine on yer knee. 

 

The only damage I can see is on the underside of the body at the rear, which can't be seen from the front - please see pics.

 

I can post to the UK Mainland at a cost price to the buyer of £9.35 for next day delivery.

 

Thank you for looking.
