ST-62MN SB Vintage Series : Harley Benton ST-62MN SB Vintage Series

I am reviewing the guitar after having owned it for more than 1 year. I initially purchased the guitar as I wanted a strat with single coils. I wanted to experiment a little bit with the sound as all of my other guitars had humbuckers.

When I received the guitar, I was immediately impressed with its finish. For a 100 Euro guitar, the finish is amazing and after having owned the guitar for more than 1 year, I have no complaints about its look.

The pickguard looked nice at first but after months of playing, I found out that it is covered with some sort of plastic. I play with my pinky finger on the pickguard for stability - this area is now quite rough and does not look great.

The fretboard felt a little bit wide at first at first as most of my guitars were shredder guitars, but I got used to it after some time. Pickups sound great and I have no complaints.

Overall it's a great guitar for 100 Euro, I would have expected to have issues with it but I didn't. For the price that I paid for, I can say that I got a real decent guitar with no issues except for some minor cosmetic flaws.
