DC-Junior TV Yellow : Got a good one

4 years ago

This is possibly one of the nicer guitars I've ever owned, and I've had dozens.

But....I've had to do a but of work. Also, I've already ordered a couple of these and one was returned faulty and the other was sold on after giving up on it. I decided to get this one because I wanted a TV Yellow junior and took another chance...and it's paid off. Lower tier Harley Bentons can be a bit of a crap shoot but if you get a good one and know how to set up a guitar you're laughing.

This one came very well set up and it seems to be well constructed with good wood. Very resonant. The finish is great as well. But the bridge had issues with some of the saddles being rough and uneven. I had to replace 2 (I had some spares handy) and use a file to sort out the others. Most people would have had to return this because of it, even on a budget guitar this wasn't acceptable, but I have repair experience so I could fix it.

Now it's a great little guitar for the price. I've ordered a spacer for the P90 which is too low IMO (another thing Harley Benton should consider before selling these) but overall I'm happy with what I've got now.
