TE-30 BE Standard Series : Good value for the price

5 years ago

It's my first Harley Benton guitar and first tele as well. Bought it for my teenage daughter for practising. Guitar looks good and overall quality is good. For the weight it's quite heavy. Sustain is ok. Compared to MIM player Jazz master sustain is weaker and neck feel is thicker also. Usually nobody talks about neck and this is important to know if you like very thin neck guitar. This is a little thicker one. Action can be set quite low though. Bridge pickup sounds good but neck sounds a little too dim.

Pros. Overall good quality. Neck and body is made from real wood witch is quite rear for that price range guitars. Bridge pickup sounds nice.

Cons. Maybe little heavy and neck is a bit too thick for me. For this guitar 6th string tuner is a bit loose.

But overall good value for the money and I keep it.
