Harley Benton DC-DLX Gotoh Daphne Blue 4-stars Reviews

Well featured guitar at this price point

Really hard to go wrong with this guitar. Cool satin finish in the Daphne blue colour, with high-quality Gotoh tuners, bridge and tailpiece, stainless steel frets, coil splitting, it can really do it all. Very light too - mine was about 6.75 lbs or just slightly over 3 kg. It came set up not too bad, just with the action set a bit high, but the nut was cut really nicely. Cavity was shielded. Pickups are okay, not bad at all, but nothing especially inspiring either. Of course, you can replace that in a guitar that's structurally sound. If you like a DC style guitar and this colour choice, it's a clear winner!

Second time lucky with this nice DC Guitar

This is my second one. I bought one about two months ago and had to return it due to poor QC (nut, and hardware issues)

This one is better.

Satin finish feels nice for playing comfort.

A little neck dive but my T Fusion is worse.

Tuners are solid and precise.

Pickups sound good.

I'm not a great player, home playing only, mostly blues. This guitar exceeds my expectations for the price. The Tesla pickups are an audible improvement on the Roswell alnicos in my other Harley Bentons.

Don't have the musical vocab or knowledge to get into specifics of exactly how it sounds. For the price anyway, if you don't like the pickups you can always change them
