A Harley Benton that looks nice!

Looks  a lot like Sandberg California VMs to me (6 bolt neck, zero fret, reverse P+MM layout, 2 band EQ), could they be in any way involved?

OTOH, after owning a Maruszczyk Jake 5a+ and trying about every Sandberg model (also some of the Cort GBs, the Fender's Am Dlx P 5, etc.) I don't think a P + Musicman pickup (in the WRONG spot) combo works really. That humbucker there is useless at producing any tone that's remotely close to a Musicman, so it's of no use other than being a P+J really, with some flavor variation (series/parallel/single) for the humbucker. Being the price range it is, I'd definitely get a Sire P7 or even a V3 over this. But this is "prima facie", nobody knows how these sound, play or weight so far, so it's all speculation. Hopefully those Roswell pickups sound more alive than Delano's big pole pickups (which sound real DEAD, hat'em).
