Harley Benton RB414 vs Squier Classic Vibe Bass

Apples and oranges. An RB414 is very different from a FSO. I don't believe there is Squier that would be in any comparable to an RB414, other than having 4 strings.

 

For me the RB414 is by far the better value. I love mine. A better comparison to a squier would be one of these.

The first group would be at least comparable to affinities and the second group would be as good or better than the CVs

There are many other colours and variants of these, the above are just some examples any one of which would be comparable to a squier and represent much better value.

In my opinion, of course.

You could have a look over here:-

Where you'll find lots of opinions from people who own all of these and some who have directly compared them to Squiers and you could ask specific questions about particular models and someone is bound to be able answer your questions.

I only have the models available in lefty so many of the higher end ones are unavailable to me.
