SC-Junior LH Vintage Sunburst : What a great guitar!

As an owner of Harley Benton's other product (lap steel guitar), I was really curious about my next experience with this brand. Due to many positive reviews, I decided to give it a try and ordered the SC Junior.

I was looking for a really lightweight les paulish type of guitar so this fortunately came in like a blast from heaven itself. I owned and still got several guitars (gibson, ibanez, fender etc.) and I play for over 20years now so I had in mind what construction/QC issues in this price range could occur.

But MAN! Straight out of the box the first thing that hit me was the finish and the general look of this thing. The second was that chunky neck feeling. The fretwork is like a butter, no sharp edges at all. The guitar really feels great in hand and IT REALLY RESONATES even unplugged which I like a lot.

The setup was okay straight out of box but it needed some minor adjustments (for example string action which I like a bit lower). Pickup sounds cool, there is no problem at all and the sustain is nice and long. volume/tone knobs work great (plenty of tonal options for such a simple guitar).

All in all, this guitar is an absolute no brainer for it's price, especially in the world of left handed players like me. I'm really glad I have another happy experience with Harley Benton and products like this one are the proof that I don't care what's written on the headstock anymore.

To be honest, my Gibson SG Standard will now stay in it's case for several months 'cause I can't stop playing this junior beast!
