ST-62 VW Vintage Series : Unbeatable quality at this price range

8 years ago

First of all, I must confess I was skeptical when buying this guitar because of its low price, however I decided that it was time to buy a Harley Benton after reading so many good reviews of other customers defending this brand for its quality. With that in mind, if you are also skeptical of buying a Harley Benton guitar I can assure you, by personal experience, that you have nothing to worry, you will have an amazing quality instrument for the money that you are paying.

The finish on this guitar is amazing. Neck feels really confortable and the blackwood fretboard was nicely treated, mine arrived in perfect condition with no need for oil. It was not dry at all. Pickups sounded warm, a little bit of high output but you can balance this by turning the tone pot for the high-end down a bit. My one complain, however, is with the tunners. They stay in perfect tune unless you use the tremolo system and if you abuse on the bends (it became an issue for me after a full step bend, the strings would go out of tune just a little). Other than that, just amazing overall.
