Harley Benton Delta Blues OE

Fantastic for the price

Regularly gig with this guitar, it sounds great. Size is perfect. I think the finish is great too.

easy to play, good sound

Value for Money - And then some!

Bought out of curiosity, and I needed an acoustic with a pickup. Ridiculously cheap for the quality - small issue with sharp frets but received a discount - this guitar never leaves my side, great tone, action, playability - and it's loud too! Love it.

Astonishing value for money.

I've been playing for decades and own many guitars - a few very pricey, but most of them low - mid price but well set up - so I have a little experience. I had fairly low/realistic expectations of this guitar, but it's become my current favourite acoustic (for anything that's practical without a cutaway). I love the dark, smokey look of it, and the matt finish; as others have said, the blackburst is better in real life than in promotional pictures. It's very light in weight, so no problem to play for hours standing up. The sound is lovely acoustically, and plugged in, the piezo is as good as any other of it's type, tuner/eq is nice and easy to see/use. I have done some setting up - adjusted truss rod, levelled frets in a few spots, filed the nut, and shaved a little off the base of the bridge....but this is no more than I'd expect to do with a guitar costing 5 or 6 times the price. It was very playable out of the box, but the tweaks make it a real pleasure to play, so if you're not comfortable doing set ups, I'd recommend spending a few extra pounds getting your local guitar tech to check it over. I also changed the tuners - but more because I thought black ones would look better than because the stock ones were particularly bad. I'm kind of blown away by this bargain, and have only held back on a couple of stars because....well....it's a £100.00 guitar and I don't want you to think it's equal to a £5,000.00 guitar. It is very much equal to a lot of £500 or £600.00 guitars though, in my opinion, and for me, it has the perfect look and sound for the kind of alt country stuff I like to play acoustically, and it'll have it's first gig in a few day's time!

Great!

Great overall and no issues. I've taught and played this guitar for over 2 years and still love the sound and feel. Amazing for the price and my go to guitar.

Nice recording guitar

Playable with balanced sound, no bumpy resonances, what makes it good for recordings. Pickup sound is not great, but still decent.

Its pretty good if you mod it abit

PROS:

Lightweight, comfortable to hold, very good finish.

CONS:

Nut , Saddle, pegs and strings need to be changed immediatly, and Im not being picky at all.

The Sound overall is pretty good. the pickup and tuner do their jobs.

Love this guitar

It's just great to sit back and relax with. Tuner works perfectly and the eq works great into my DAW

Great budget acoustic

I love the smaller body size. Great for an acoustic Blues. Very playable straight out of the box, might do some minor maintenance to the trussrod and frets when I change the strings. Tuners work great, workmanship is very good and sounds really good. This will be my throw-around couch guitar and will fit my needs very well. Build-in electronics work really well as well.

Excellent guitar for pub singsong

Bought this for pub singsongs rather than risk my expensive Faith getting a bashing. Cannot praise it enough for the price, great sound and stays in tune. Action was fine although I did lower it a bit to suit my own preference. Some very slight fret sprout but nothing of concern and did not effect playability. Overall very pleased with it.
