Harley Benton D-120CE NT Reviews

Good value for money

Sounds great for £60 but the overall finish and feel of the guitar isn't great. I guess that is expected for a guitar this cheap

Great Unit

Great sounding guitar. Arrived asap all the way to Alaska. Awesome all around.

Great acustic/electric for a great price!

Fret ends were a bit sharp when I first picked it up, but a quick file and sand and now it plays like a deam

Outstanding value

Brought this as a present for a friend for Christmas

Nut a bit high ,bridge very high and some sharp frets but a little work and now what a great guitar

So impressed I brought myself one too

I'm happy with the purchase

I am happy with the purchase and I do like this guitar. Though, there's some flaws that worth mentioning - unpolished, a bit sharp frets, some traces of glue, not enjoyable strings. I red a lot of reviews from others, so I was expecting it, but some may be disappointed. In any case, for the price it's a great deal and it's perfect for home practice!

Very good

Very good acoustic guitar for this price. Sounds great, and good quality over all.

Really good for the price

I own (and have owned) some very high end instruments including fully custom built boutique acoustic guitars. I bought this guitar to take with me on my disaster relief missions where all belongings are likely to be exposed to uncertain harsh elements. This guitar perfectly fits the bill. It doesn't have the most full, loud sound or sustain, but it stays in tune, is durable enough to handle the rough treatment, and the intonation is pretty close out of the box. I would probably cut a new bridge saddle and nut from bone to improve the intonation and sustain. I'm thinking about sanding the finish off and applying a wax or tung oil finish to help with the tone and volume as well. Overall though, this exceeds expectations and competes with pretty much every entry level instrument I've played costing triple what I paid. A fantastic bargain!

Good day! Today I will tell you about one great musical instrument like a guitar. Probably, each of us has always dreamed of learning to play the guitar, but really, who wouldn't want to? Personally, I was always told that you will learn to "play" the guitar and all the girls are yours, you will always be the life of the company. Of course, they deceived me a little about the first one, but oh well :)

I think it's worth mentioning that guitars come in both acoustic and electro and a mixture of this and that is electro-acoustic. We will consider electric guitars a little later, because the first thing that falls into the hands of a novice guitarist is acoustics.

This guitar combines traditional quality design with a great sound that will leave goosebumps even for a professional.

I'll tell you a little about the materials: the body is made of mahogany, the top is made of spruce, the neck is also made of mahogany

This is a pop guitar (also called "western") type. That is, it has a narrowed neck and it is for metal strings. The characteristic difference between westerns and classics is that they have a more saturated, higher quality, brighter sound.

It is worth saying that this is the 3rd acoustic guitar that I had and have at the moment. And I can say that it is the best of its kind. Harley Benton has once again proven that it is well versed in musical instruments.

P.S. Thank you for reading my review, I hope you liked it :) Have a nice day everyone!

for this price is awesome

good)

real good for this price)

It will be tough to find better "box" for the price

I am owning this guitar for couple of months now, and although I'm not a pro player (camp fire hobbyist rather) I think you will have a very tough task to find something really better for the money. Of course this is not Fender, Gibson, Ibanez or Washburn, but still it is a very good guitar and I absolutely love playing it.

Thus being said, while buying it one must be aware that the price come at a cost, and there are some issues with the guitar that can be thought of as... annoying? Although overall looks is gorgeous (and sounding excellent too) there are some finishing fails. My piece had a very rough fret ends, nothing that a little bit of fine sandpaper wouldn't help, still it did some cuts on my skin. One fret is also poorly glued and thus it's a bit higher causing low E string to buzz near 12th fret. The frets are also quite soft, and after few months i started to see some of them wearing off. Probably will end in refretting it in a year or so. Also you will definitely want to restring it to get the best sound.

Summarizing: best for the price, sounds awesome after giving her a pack of good strings, looks good too. If only the producer put a little bit more effort in the finishing it would be perfect.

Pros: sound, looks, PRICE.

Cons: finishing.

Great bang for the buck

Increadibly good looking and great sounding guitar for the price.

You cannot go wrong with this one.

Just perfect for this price

It was the cheapest proper acoustic guitar that i could find and i was sceptical about the quality(because of the price) but it's really, really good. The sound of an acoustic is a matter of taste but it certainly doesn't sound "cheap", and the playability is really good(which should be your main concern if this is your first guitar, if you get a bad quality guitar, you will hate it and quit playing all together). Overall, this is a nice guitar with a really nice price tag.

Gave it 5 stars because of what you get for the money!

I bought this for my grandson. I lowered the nut slots, adjusted the truss rod and put a nice set of strings on it. Although it was not bad out of the box. It later developed a little fret sprout (we live in a very dry climate). The fret sprout was easily remedied with a sanding sponge from the local hardware store ($2.50). If I remember correctly I only paid $64 at the time plus shipping. This is actually a very nice sounding and playing guitar. My grandson is very happy with it ,and is progressing very nicely on his playing, songwriting and production skills.

Good Enough

I wanted to start learning to play guitar. Haven't had much time or chance since but I like the sound of it. The only thing I'd say is that it feels big for me. It is not the best quality guitar but a very good piece for a learner. Came very quickly.

Amazing

I use this product to record at home ,

and I recommend it, excellent value for money, the sound is bright, the wood is good, the neck is quite soft, in short, a really nice acoustic guitar. Obviously I also recommend using it, in an amplified way, excellent sounds, well structured equalizer and the sounds are balanced.

Beautiful guitar! As soon as I saw it, I realized that it sounded the same as it looked. And I wasn't wrong. The only thing that was a little frustrating was a few small moments. First: a bit of varnish cracked to the left and right of the bridge. But this can only be seen from a certain angle, so it's not scary. Secondly: the pickup did not work, the wire from the jack input came off. I wrote to support, and they responded quickly. They wanted to offer to replace the guitar, but refused. (Since I live in Russia, in Kamchatka) I fixed it on my own. Soldered and everything worked. In general, these are small things. It sounds very good, there are no problems during the game. I am very happy with the purchase!

It is cheap and nice for a student.

Very nice

Best quality for the price

I received this guitar today and I am very satisfied. She is divine!

The workmanship is very neat. Frets do not scratch, although I received it in the winter. The tuners keep the tune well, rotate well and do not play. The edging is very neat. The guitar is evenly varnished and looks very beautiful in life.

The pickup works great and is very easy to use.

The guitar came sharp, with a comfortable neck-to-string spacing and a straight neck. I tested the anchor and it works as it should.

I don't know what else to say. Buy this guitar and make sure it is a very good deal.

I love this Guitar

Look for the price you have to buy this guitar!!! It has a really nice Tone.
