SC-Custom II SPAF : Feels good, sounds good

4 years ago

Guitars are a highly subjective item. So, when you get your hands on a new guitar, it's really all about how it feels to you, personally. And for me, this Harley Benton SC-Custom II SPAF feels great, sounds great, and looks great.

This is not a perfect guitar, nor would you expect it to be so within this price range. However, the value far exceeds the cost in every way. The very minor issues on this particular guitar are: 1) very small dings in the neck binding (cannot feel them when playing but when you look close you see them), 2) the coil split knob comes off a bit too easy when I pull it (easily adjusted), 3) very small spot of overspray of the dark brown onto the neck binding where it joins the body (you don't see it unless you flip the guitar over because it's on the lower side of the neck).

Weight: Mine came in at 4.1 kg (~9lbs). This is heavier than I expected so keep it in mind. I have also heard that other people have received lighter guitars so experiences vary with the weight. I play sitting down most of the time so this is not a huge issue.

Overall, a great guitar at an attractive price.
