ST-90SA Swamp Ash DLX Series : Great guitar

Harley Benton make some great guitars, this one is no exception. It oozes quality and looks beautiful. I needed a strat sound, I was looking at fenders, but when I saw this with the positive reviews I thought I'd try it.

The build quality is exceptional, I would say it's a little heavy, heavier than any guitar I have, but hey, that's just down to the beautiful solid body wood. The weight isn't a problem.

Sound wise, it's a strat and it sounds like what it is, I honestly can't say that I could justify paying so much more for a fender, and if you're really picky, just upgrade the pickups, I'm not going to bother with that though.

For me it just needed a slight adjustment, the strings were a little high, but once lowered it plays great. Very smooth, quick fretboard, I love it.

This has completed my collection, at least that's what I've told my wife 🤣

I have Rickenbackers, a fender, a Gretsch an Eko and now this, and believe me when I say it is in no way out of place amongst my other guitars.
