TE-20MN BM Standard Series : Unbelievably good for $90

I bought this T Style guitar to modify pretty exstensively, not really expecting much for the $90 it costs... man I don’t know how Harley Benton does it. This guitar is just as good as a Squier Classic vibe as far as build quality goes, for like a THIRD of the price. In all fairness the pickups in the guitar are its weak point, and unfortunately are microphonic. With that being said, if you are like me or many other people buying this guitar, there’s a really good chance you’re buying it and swapping out the stock pickups for some aftermarket ones. The thing is, you can buy this, upgrade the pickups and hardware to your liking, and STILL maybe be in the ballpark of the other guys’ top tier guitars. I got to admit that I scoffed at the idea of a sub-$100 guitar being good, but HB you’ve made me a believer!

This is my 2nd HB, first being the JA-60, which is an incredible guitar. This tele is almost as good as that one, not quite, but it’s also almost half the price.
