Harley Benton D-120CE TB Reviews

Best guitar at this price!

Very beautiful guitar design! Comes with pickguard. The sound is great and for the pre amp comes with 9v battery included. I love this guitar! The only thing i didnt like so much is that is too big and sometimes it's painful to play but im a really beginner so that might be my personal problem. Overall I absolutely love this guitar and I recommend it !

Nice Guitar

Well made guitar for the price. Looks and sounds well. Pickup isn't too bad. Its a perfect beginner guitar and it would be hard to beat at this price point. The action was a little higher than usual for a new guitar but nothing that wasn't sorted with difficulty.

So good!

I bought this guitar mainly for playing live, I've never used the pickups and the electronics. They say a good instrument is supposed to sound good acousticly before else. And yes - this guitar does just that!

For 9 months of playing I've not experienced any quality issues. The lacquer finish is great. The neck joint is stable, so are the nut and bridge. The tuning keys are quality as well. Frets are done pretty nice. None of them is sticking out. I can't really find anything flawed about this guitar. It just sings when played. It really got that high top end emphasis while maintaining the fundamentals of the tone. I really love it!

As a natural bass player I bought it with the intend of having a cheap guitar for live playing but there is not anything cheap about this guitar, besides its price, trust me! Harley Benton reminded me again their products should not be valued and measured by their price tags.

I can't really recommend this enough to every body!

Perfect beginner guitar!

I bought this guitar for my son and I couldn't believe the quality for the price. This is an entry level priced guitar so you're not going to get custom shop quality. It plays well, the action is nice, neck is comfortable and no roughly frets. Nice full sound and it even has a pickup....at this price????? I wish I had a guitar like this when I started ...would have saved myself a lot if pain 😀

Love this

Bought this for my daughter as a first guitar to learn on plays well sounds beautiful

A pleasure

Fantastic instrument for invested money. Great guitar for beginners. It is easy to tune, it keeps the tune. It's soft. It looks beautiful. It is a real pleasure to have. My recommendation.

Good guitar for start.

I bought this guitar for home use sometimes. Very good sound, the neck is moderately playable, the fittings are excellent, the appearance is very good! I am very happy! I recommend it!

Great instrument for the price

Very good price for a electro acoustic.

Sounds decent especially with a good guitar processor HelixLT here.

Quality - well made but the finishing touches were definitely lacking.

Scratches here and there, paint job especially near the hole was bad also fretboard inlay was with some glue residue.

thank you

good guitar for this price)

amazing value

I use this guitar for practicing. I have been an amateur player for about 30 years, my first "nice" guitar was a 1987 Ibanez RG550 which I played in the early 1990's until I needed to sell it to make rent in college. I'm now 48, my day job is an IT Systems Engineer so I don't consider myself a musician but I do dabble.

My girlfriend has a $5000 Martin acoustic-electric, this is not a guitar in the same league obviously, but it's about the only thing I have to compare it to, as I haven't played much acoustic over the years. If I use that guitar as a reference, I would say this guitar is much more pliable, just grabbing onto it and holding the neck makes it bend a quarter semitone or so. I bought this guitar because I was already ordering a Fusion 2 HSH FBLB I had wanted for quite a while and had to wait several months for there to be stock.

TBH, this guitar has impressed me most of the two I ordered. The strings it came with are more than adequate. The sound is warm and bright. After the strings were broken in the guitar keeps tune pretty well. Cosmetically, it is a beautiful instrument, and you'd really have to be a guitar guru/snob/luthier to know that it is a really inexpensive guitar. I think the engineering on it is excellent. I haven't tried it plugged in yet. Machine heads seem to be a fairly adequate quality. Fretwork is excellent, no sharp edges or buzzes. The action from the factory is spot-on.

Pros - inexpensive, sound quality, playability, excellent setup, looks great

Cons - Could be a bit more rigid

I highly recommend this guitar, especially at this price point

This is great value for money

This guitar is a great budget option for beginner guitarists. There are minor visual flaws in the instrument (slightly rough ends of the frets, there are places with an influx of varnish at the junction of the neck with the soundboard). But for such a price, these shortcomings are insignificant. I recommend it for purchase.

Bonne guitare surtout pour le prix

Finition ok, look sympa en bleu. Le seul problème rencontré a été une cheville qui a cassé lors du premier changement de cordes.

Niveau son, je n'ai pas assez de recul, c'est la seule electro-acoustique que j'ai eu (je re-débute la guitare après des tentatives abortées par manque de temps à consacrer à la musique et un passé de bassiste).

Il faut l'accorder régulièrement et les mécaniques ne sont pas très précisent.

Le manche est fin et agréable, l'action est peut-être un peu haute.

Bon rapport/qualité prix.

Krótko...

Tak dobry elektro akustyk, że kupiłem dwa,

polecam

Awesome for the price

I mean, for this price is premium. You get awesome stuff with this brand. Great great color, you have to see it in person. It works great plugged. Overall quality feels more like 300-400 range but I didn't like the fretboard. It's too dry, even with some lemon oil. I think that with use it will feel better. Strings have a low action which is nice but I hear some ringing. Probably need some new strings and maybe a bridge adjastment but I would recomend this baby even to better players. I play more than 16-17 years now and I still loved it. I think that with time and use it will feel higher end also. If you want something below 100 bucks, don't even hesitate. I would pick this baby over many higher end guitars and if I could play an older one I would even guarantee it.

Wunderbar! Aber wieso wird...

...die Gitarre mit sie so einer dermaßen hohen Saitenlage ausgeliefert? Nachdem ich den Sattel um paar Millimeter abgeschliffen habe war das eine ganz neue Gitarre! Für den Preis der absolute Wahnsinn! Wer keine Markensau ist, wird hier definitiv glücklich werden. Klang, Handling und wenn man nicht ganz genau hinsieht ist auch die Verarbeitung absolut Top!

It's really nice guitar, easy to play, nice sound, comfortable neck and lovely blue color :)

Finishing touch is on low key

Its like a neck wasn't sanded properly before painting and frets were sharp and edgy.

Other then that a solid beginners guitar.

Bought it for my son This guitar is very impressive,for an entry level guitar action is low feels like an electric and holds tune pretty good sounds really good excellent for a beginner or even moderate guitarist

My first guitar

I bought this guitar at the beginning of the lockdown and started my guitarist journey with it, without any previous experience whatsoever. It was a very good decision.

For a beginner guitarist this is great. There is a lot of volume, the sound is clear and the finish is sturdy. The color stands out and it really incentivizes you to keep the instrument around, just to be in sync with its "vibe". The only drawback (and it's not directly related to the guitar, but to my level as a guitarist) were the strings, which were a bit too thick and I had to restring my guitar with thinner strings. In hindsight, this was also a good experience, as I got to see how the actual build is holding, how the strings are fixed, etc.

I use it to practice and to sing to small audiences. It really feels and plays like a "workhorse" and I can see myself playing it a few good years from now. Definitely recommend it!

Sounds great for a great price

Plus: great sound, low price, good features

Minus: some quality issues (one fret is slightly tilted, the fretboard was dry and dusty, the saddle and nut are a bit flimsy and once in a while make weird clicks (probably they are trapping the strings and then releasing them))
