New for NAMM 2026 – Nine exciting new models to kick off your year!


Launches 22.01.2026
We’re delighted to announce a bunch of exciting new Harley Benton releases to coincide with NAMM 2026! These include new finishes for our SC-Custom III and ST-Modern Plus HSS models, a brand-new SC-Custom III Baritone model, and left-hand versions of the Victory-BK and TB-70 models!

Five New Faces! – New SC-Custom III finishes, including a Baritone!

Finish options for the SC-Custom III models have been expanded to include Purple Satin, Moritz Yellow, Quilt Midnight, and Silver Sparkle, while the all-new SC-Custom III BT Baritone comes in a stealthy Army Burst. Loaded with Tesla TM VR-Nitro Alnico-5 humbuckers, the SC-Custom III models offer grit and bite when driven, while also cleaning up nicely. The standard SC-Custom III models feature a 628 mm scale-length, while the SC-Custom III Baritone model is rocking a 712 mm scale-length.

Two to Tango – Two new ST-Modern Plus HSS finishes

The ST-Modern Plus HSS family is also adding two new colours to its lineup, Gun Metallic Blue and Dark Red Metallic. The ST-Modern Plus HSS Dark Red Metallic has a rosewood fingerboard, while the ST-Modern Plus MN HSS Gun Metallic Blue comes with a Canadian maple fingerboard. Elsewhere, the specs maintain a single Tesla VR-Nitro humbucker in the bridge position, and Tesla TV-S1M and Tesla TV-S1N single-coil pickups in the middle and neck positions, while the Babicz FCH 2-Point Z-Series C full Contact tremolo adds tonal benefits and tuning integrity.   

Lefties Rejoice! – New Victory-BK LH and TB-70 LH

For our left-hand community, we are pleased to announce two new models, one for guitarists and one for bassists. Six-string slingers can now access the Victory-BK LH, finished in all black with a 3-ply white pickguard, and designed to raise hell, whether on stage or in the studio. Bass players can now get the TB-70VS LH to lay down deep, rich tones and rock-solid grooves in style.

All in all, nine new releases that make sure there is something for everyone, no matter the style, genre, or player!
