A sturdy bass for stage and home studio alike
There is no doubt that a bass like this belongs on stage, and with the Harley Benton TB-70 you are well prepared for your first live Rock gigs. However, this inexpensive Rock bass also will also prove to be an uncomplicated companion for the home studio. The Roswell GB4 mini humbuckers are not affected by interference and therefore will not cause any unwanted background noise when recording - just one of the reasons why the Harley Benton TB-70 is a great choice for guitarists who are looking for an inexpensive and straightforward Rock bass for occasional recordings
The ultimate rock bass! After it was introduced in the 1960s, the eye-catching aesthetics of the bass that inspired the BT-70VS quickly became the visual embodiment of harder rock genres. Among the players associated with it are John Entwistle (The Who), Nikki Sixx (Mötley Crüe), Twiggy Ramirez (Marilyn Manson) or Pete Way (U.F.O.) - this list speaks for itself! A mahogany body in a stylish Vintage Sunburst finish and a set-in mahogany neck reproduce the original’s famed mid-focused snarl. The blackwood fretboard is loaded with 20 frets. To deliver even more punch yet also provide more versatility, the BT-70VS comes loaded with two mini humbuckers and active electronics.
A down-and-dirty yet flexible Rock bass
In terms of sound and looks, this bass is perfect for making music in the style of Rock bass legends like John Entwistle of The Who and Mötley Crüe’s low-end maestro Nikki Sixx. Of course, the Harley Benton TB-70 also has the typical, slightly scooped Rock sound that allows you to cut through the mix when playing in a band. Thanks to the two Roswell GB4 mini humbuckers and effective two-band EQ controls, the TB-70 also offers a lot of variety, so you are not limited to one particular musical style. For a fatter sound, one turn of the bass knob is enough, and the upper frequencies can be adjusted as desired with the treble control.
