My favourite guitar

I've played the Taylor gs mini on multiple occasions... but honestly, I prefer my CLGS travel every time... it's honestly ma favourite guitar, I play it every day, mostly because it's so comfortable to play and it sounds just great. I slap some EB earthwood 10-50 stings on it... and it sounds just amazing.

Fine guitar

Die Harley Benton Custom Line CLGS-10S Travel ist eine großartige Gitarre für unterwegs. Ihre kompakte Größe macht sie ideal für Reisen, während ihr Klang und ihre Spielbarkeit nicht enttäuschen. Die Verarbeitungsqualität ist solide, und ihr Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis ist unschlagbar. Insgesamt würde ich sie definitiv weiterempfehlen.

Great acoustic .

Awesome guitar that suits my 5ft 7inch frame much better than dreadnaught guitars,very comfartable and easy to play,lovely neck and frets ,guitar set up was good and stock strings good,sounds great with good projection of sound,being a spruce top its a little more treble sounding but that is my opinion and i knew that before purchase,great guitar super comfy and sound great too.

The guitar rocks

For the price I am speechless. My Benton CLGS10S Travel is already banged up fairly good and going strong. It busked for a year, withstood falling down, heat, cold, being drilled for 2 pickup systems and even scalloping of the neck. I even played a part on a jingle on the radio for it. It just sounds great. It looks great, plays even better with a crazy low action after a subtle fret level. With my next order im buying another one just to have in case I break the one I have. I mean we live in a age where great instruments are sooo affordable and you can comfortably hand this one to the guy at the bar that just wants to play a song after the gig for his friends. Even the bag is above what I expected when I bought it.

Amazing

Wonderful little guitar. Fully playable out of the box. Nice finish, low action, comfortable V-shaped neck, decent frets and tuning machines. No buzz or truly dead spots anywhere. Some frets are a bit quieter then their neighbors but that’s not a big issue. Resonance and playability can’t match those of an expensive full-sized acoustic guitar, but they’re quite acceptable. I’ve played for several hours without any strain. Actually it’s quite a pleasant experience exploring the possibilities of that tiny little treasure. Perfect for my upcoming travel. The gig bag is nice. Very light, compact but absolutely playable guitar for the money. It’s a good idea to use some oil for the fretboard. The frets are a little rough on the edges but that doesn’t affect the playing unless you favor some crazy slides. Stable tuning. In tune along the fretboard, no matter if you play solo or chords. Changing the strings with Elixir 10-47 phosphor bronze was a trade-off - increased speed, playability and bending but less resonance.

Awesome, very comfortable guitar

Very good guitar for travel as well as playing while sitting on sofa. Also could be a great option for kid/teenager to start the adventure with acoustic guitar. Very easy to play, inspires to learn new stuff. Great value for the money! The sound is good, not as loud as full size guitar but rich and full. Overall, I'm very satisfied. Would definitely recommend this one

Pros:

- Playability, comfort

- Great look

- Sound

Cons:

- Machine heads not the best quality (In my case at least). Would recomment to replace them initially

GS contender

Fantastic little bit of kit.

Gives the T GS a run for it's money.

Set up was OK but as I always do with any guitar I but is set it up myself with my choice of string and action.

After this was done it transformed into a very nice sounding guitar.

For the price these are remarkable, the case is great quality and all in all fantastic instruments.

You honestly can't go wrong with this.
