Harley Benton CLA-15CE Koa Exotic 5-stars Reviews

Amazing tone and well balanced

I bought this guitar solely from reviews and YouTube demos. I can safely say after owning over 30 acoustic guitars, it’s a great value for both the casual player or gigging musician. I will definitely use this for live and studio work. The only downside, which is minimal, is that there’s only one strap knob located on the back. Not a big deal so I purchased a set of strap locks and installed one at the heel of the neck as that’s where I’m used to setting my strap. Not a deal breaker by any means.

Really pleased with this.

My guitar is darker in colour to the photo. I’m in the U.K. and so had the additional fees to pay to the U.K. govt via the courier. Don’t underestimate these extra fees folks.

On opening the box I find a beautiful guitar. Really nice finish. No issues with rough frets etc. Really nice. Took a few minutes to tune in using the on board kit.

Sounds lovely, good tone. Feels like a really good guitar.

One useful thing is that changing the battery for the tuning, pre-amp etc is dead easy, it’s behind a small lid at the rear of the guitar. Good thinking.

All in all I’m chuffed with this. Just watch the extra U.K. charges if you are in the U.K. Thanks to those who voted Brexit….. which I didn’t.
