ST-62DLX VW Vintage Series : Great strat from Harley Benton!

I bought this guitar basically to try out different pickups. I was hoping that the stock pickups would change my mind. But sadly no, they were kinda of thin sounding to my individual taste, Guitar is not shielded so be prepared for noise and hum.

I took off the anodised pickguard as it was picking up some static. Change the pickguard to a Harley Benton Parts Pickguard SSS Parchment A.

I think the guitar is worth getting as the workmanship and hardware are up to par. No sharp frets..intonation is well done although the tremolo bridge is set up as a non floating bridge.

If you can live with the sound of the pickups then you will thoroughly enjoy it without spending any more money.

My review of this guitar is @ my youtube channel
