This Is A Benny’s Of London my wife bought me a number of years ago.
Is it a DE 89 ? ish.
i used it today for the first time in 3 year ish and i actually quite enjoyed it.
Can anyone identify it.
I’m assuming it’s been branded for Benny’s

I think Russ is right. One of the Chinese versions - probably from Yaqi.

Totally agree with @RussellR5555
I have a Murdock London which looks the same. DE89 in disguise.

It's "Emerson, Lake & Palmer - Benny the bouncer (1973)", you're not missing much.
