I'd been looking for a cheap short scale and was looking at the Thomann site for the Mikro ( great wee bass BTW),
anyway looking at the other basses available the Benton PB-50 SB Vintage took my fancy.
Listened to the sound-clips and thought Yep like that.
Ordered Tuesday night, text and email on Wednesday to say
order confirmed and shipped.Arrived on Friday, box within a box packed in airbags, so fast delivery and safe packaging
plus point.
Out the box came a gorgeous looking Bass

Good neck,Well built and well balanced,shipped with Wilkinson Alnico single coil and D'ddario
strings. Quick easy set-up and away we go,good range of sounds. All in all a good sound bass.
At a cost of £87
First time dealing with Thomann and first Benton and I'm well happy.No hassles,fast delivery
and a good bass.I'd consider another Benton and deal with Thomann again
Just my tuppence worth. K.B

Steve my first bass was the £50 Kay out the catalogue 30 odd year back.

When I think what £50 was worth back then ( 1st wage £16 ) what's available now is great and a damn sight cheaper.
