TE-40 TBK Deluxe Series : Awesome, better than expected.

About me:

Been playing for over 35 years, average at best. Mostly a 70s rockhead, Stones, CCR... I can play anything if you don’t mind it sounding like Chuck Berry….Ha Ha…

I have about 20 guitars (only 1 acoustic..) Some good - USA 72 Deluxe Tele, PRS SE Custom 24 Exotic Top, Ibanez S series, some not so good – the wife has a Hanna Montana Washburn… crazy woman…

I recently bought the HB CST24HB and TE-70 Paisley and loved them so much that I followed up by buying the CST-24T Black Flame and the TE-90QM Trans Red. Now I have just purchased the Harley Benton TE-40 TBK Deluxe Series and the Harley Benton HBO-850NT.

Review of the Harley Benton TE-40 TBK Deluxe Series:

Pros:

This guitar looks amazing.

It has a slim neck that plays fast. The action is low, <1.5mm@ 6th.

Very versatile guitar that handles cleans through to JCM800 very well.

Nice contoured body that fit my 24 pack well. Just a nice fit standing or seated.

Pickups are great.

OKs:

Tuners are just tuners, no big issue.

No coil tap, no big issue.

Cons:

Finger board was a bit dry... no big deal.

Conclusion:

100% recommended.

Should have bought it years ago.
