Harley Benton Fusion-T HH HT Roasted FNT 3-stars Reviews

Please check your guitars more carefully. Please...

To begin with, I'm from Russia.

I had to ask the tomann to exchange one instance of Fusion-T for another, since the first had a number of drawbacks - the most important of which was a white pickup in the neck position.

Yesterday I picked up another HB F-T, having paid customs duty again.

Now about the guitar - a very controversial instrument.

Pros:

1. The neck is made very well. That part of the working department is well done.

A good maple, perfectly rolled frets, excellent spikes and string springs.

2. Good quality pickups. Universal frequency response and sound readability.

3. Nice, simple bridge. Holding the strings through the deck provides a decent sustain.

4. Screening of the tone block, accurate organization of wiring.

Cons (maybe specifically my copy, but on the previous guitar they were similar):

1. Humbuckers stand crooked towards the strings, they are littered. This is due to the fact that there are no springs under the screws. The sensor simply lies on pieces of paralon.

2. Very cheap three-position switch and potentiometers. The volume potentiometer rustles chronically while rotating, without clinging to the deck. The tone potentiometer scratches the deck, both potentiometers need to be changed.

3. The nut of the neck anchor does not stand strictly perpendicular to the frets (at an angle) during rotation by “cutting” the wood. But it seems to work. It seems that there may be problems with the vulture in the future because of this.

Self-tapping screws are inaccurately screwed into the heel of the neck.

Total:

1. The best thing about this guitar is its neck. It is difficult to find an instrument of a similar price category with a similar in quality and tactile feel to the fingerboard.

2. The sound of the guitar is pullable and versatile.

I would like return the guitar, but I don’t think that I can get Tomann’s confessions again. The employees of the export department are great - they make contacts and try to help.

The main complaint is that quality control should be better and more thorough. (especially when sending to CIS countries :-) _)

Great guitar let down by a really bad set-up!

first of all i am already an owner of 3 other harley benton guitars. I have an eax 500tl faded denem acoustic and 2 of the fusion pro series guitars. They are all great guitars that punch way above their price. These guitars all came set up fine and ready to play. The new roasted maple hard tail in flamed natural finish however came with the worst setup i have ever experienced in all my 30 plus years playing. Dont get me wrong the guitar is great but i know how to set guitars up, so i spent about an hour and a half fixing what should have been done before the guitar went out. The nut was cut extremly high and the acion was a joke. I COULD FIT MY PINKY FINGER UNDER THE LOW E STRING ON THE 18TH FRET. This kind of thing should not happen with a guitar once you go over 300 euro. other than the bad setup the guitar is great, I hope i am the last person who gets a guitar in this state.
