Such a sweet tone, and easy to play
Bought this as an alternative/ backup for my banjo. A five minute retune into open G and I was strumming and picking with ease. The build quality is perfect and it stays in tune for ages. The lacquer finish is stunning, this is great value for the price, if they brought out a electric pickup version id buy another in a flash.
lovely instrument, unbeatable at this price
I had one tenor guitar which I keep in CGDA and was happy with, but I wanted another to keep in GDAE. I chose this one mostly on the price. When it arrived I was astounded by the build quality and finish, the set up and the sound. It's got a good strong sound for a small instrument, neck is true, action is good, sounds better than my first one which was over twice the price. I've had it strung in both tunings and it's fine for either. Only flaw is the cheap machine heads which I've changed for 4 from a spare guitar set I had lying about; the originals were a weakness. I'd recommend this to anyone wanting to dip their toe into the wonderful world of tenor guitars.
Great tenor guitar!
This is a lovely tenor guitar with a distinct and large sound. It is compact and the scale length allows playing in fifths. The neck is comfortable - narrow on the fretboard and thicker in depth and allows for a very good grip without the feeling of a small instrument. Cosmetics are top-notch as well!
My only suggestion to HB - make the pick guard optional, put it in the box but don't install it on the guitar. The guitar sounds even better without it and removing it a chore - time better spent playing :)
Good value
Great for the money, really impressed with the quality.
Great transition guitar
I am a lockdown guitar learner. I started on a tenor ukulele, moved to a baritone, then bought this Harley tenor guitar. This is a great way to get you on to 'grown up' guitar playing. This guitar is so light and compact you really can take it anywhere. Nice slim neck, perfect for nailing tricky chord shapes
excelent
I am very happy with this guitar, looks nice and the playability is good.
A good tenor guitar at a great price
This Tenor is really good value and the sound quality is better than I expected at the price. I changed the strings to GDAE to match my mandolin chord shapes and tuning, but the low G sounded a bit flabby. My recommendation is to keep it at CGDA for a brighter sound.
Fantastic instrument
I use a GCEA alignment. Sounds great. Very comfortable to play.
Tenor Guitar
Great small sized tenor guitar with good base tones and looks good.
I use in a ukulele group tuned DGBE
A well-made product. The relatively low price justifies the sound of average quality. I would replace the tuners.
