Fusion-III HSH EB FPU : SO impressed

I’ve just read the reviews above and I agree with just about everything that is positive. I bought this as a fun, 3rd guitar after my Fender Tele and Epiphone Casino. I’ll be as brief as I can. I absolutely love this guitar. First though, a coupe of negatives.

1. The colour is much lighter than all of the website images and I’ve notices a few reviewers saying this.

2. The frets (not the fret ends which are lovely) are a little ‘scratchy’ But I reckon that will sort itself out after a couple of weeks playing.

Positives. Too many to list so I’ll try this:

Played great straight out of the box, minimal tuning. Action slightly high for my liking but easily adjustable.

The hardware on this thing is fantastic. Very weighty, smooth, great quality.

The build quality is first rate. Honestly, easily on a parr with my Fender.

It’s a dream to play. Beautifully smooth and slick. This is such a cliche but it feels like something several hundreds of pounds (dollars) worth above this. It’s a joy. And, for me, the biggest thing. It ‘feels’ great to play. I’m an instant Harley Benton convert.

Just one last thing. HB customer service is absolutely first rate but why they use DHL as their courier I’ll never understand. Shocking standards from DHL.
