4-string · bolt-on
A bass classic with a short scale length! If you think the usual 864 mm is overkill, you really should try out the PB-Shorty with its 762 mm scale length. Sporting an elegant black finish, the PB-Shorty is extremely playable across all 19 frets and its sound compares well with that of its bigger brother. And no wonder: the PB-Shorty uses tried and tested ingredients, such as an extremely lightweight basswood body and a maple neck. A classic split coil pickup and passive electronics guarantee excellent all-round usability without any bad surprises. 4-string, per the product category Thomann files this model under (Thomann is Harley Benton's own house brand).
