DS-10 Mini : it's not you, it's me

unwrapping the box within the box, i was greeted by a well protected, well presented, quality looking guitar. It looks better than i had hoped for in terms of its satin finish, headstock and inlay style and overall appearance of the contrasting wood finishes. I couldn't fault the sound either, it's diminutive appearance does not lack any audible presence. If you have small hands or thin fingers you will do well with this as a travel instrument to be proud of and considering it's budget price it is in no way lacking. I on the other hand have sausage fingers and grossly underestimated what an 80cm long guitar would feel like for me. I will definitely buy another Harley Benson in a heartbeat as its replacement as, despite some youtube video review reservations, i have experienced first hand what great value for money and quality you can get from this brand.
