Surprised

I didn't expect much from a 20 W amp that comes in a bundle. But it sounds great!

Amazing practice amplifier and best friend of my wife abd the neighbours!

I needed a small amplifiers to keep good relations with my neighbours and above all, practice in my apartment without risking to go through divorce with my wife.

This little amplifier has an excellent clean, which allow me to play all genres because it "digest" very well my Mooer GE-150 and therefore even in 10 watts, I don't lose any clarity and dynamics and I can practice with an acceptable volume without "playing in the box".

Anyway, the distortion channel is still acceptable for a decent overdrive. Of course, if you're looking for a Plexi, an Orange or a Silver Jubilee you will be disappointed. But if you have a good processor or a pedal board, the infinite quantity of clean of this amplifier is absolutely THE solution if you are looking for a cheap but consistent practice amplifier.

If you looking for clean sound, that's absolutely to take into consideration. Without my Mooer GE-150 I had good time playing some rockabilly and delta blues by placing the pick up selector of my Harley Benton ST-62CC fully at the bridge. And in two second, chicken picking blues was the thing to do.

If I'd buy again? Yes, indeed.

Excellent for the price

I bought this with my fitst electric guitar. Shortly, good sound and equalization, but if you wanna play rock(distortion/overdrive), better buy some cheap pedal with it, as I did. Bought in august of 2023, still using

Naja - für das kleine Geld super

Ich habe einen kleinen Heimverstärker gesucht, der aber auch evt. im low volume bereich noch was herzugeben hat - da hab ich jetzt zwar nicht ganz das bekommen was ich erwartet habe, aber bei 59€ habe ich meine erfahrungen wohl zu hochgestickt; aber mal abgesehen vom Preis is das ding hier auch nicht wirklich empfehlenswert.

Der Gain regler fängt kurz nach der hälfte an zu rauschen (und ist auch kein wirklich brauchbarer channel, hört sich leider nicht sehr verzerrt, satt und druckvoll an wie bei den meisten Combos die ich gehört habe) aber der clean channel ist an sich ganz gut. Wer also nur etwas üben will und nicht viel wert auf harten metal sound hat, kann hier nicht viel falsch machen. vom nahen sieht der verstärker ziemlich billig aus, aber auch an der verarbeitung kann man wenig meckern - denn hier habe ich auch schon bei teureren modellen schlimmeres gesehen. An der Lautstärke kann man überhaupt nichts bemängeln, auch wenn dieser jetzt auch nichts am schwachen bass, chaotischem gain und der Höhenlastigkeit ändert.

Also an anfänger mit niedrigen budget die gerne Taylor swift hören, dat ding geht kla. wer slipknot und Co. feiert sollte lieber ein paar Euro mehr in die Hand nehmen.

A nice amp for beginners

This amp is very nice for people who are not familiar with the electric guitar and want to give give a try.

The clean sound is actually very nice, but the OD is as good as it can get for that price.

The amp itself is surprisingly good. It looks nice and it's pretty solid.

As for the features you have the basics, an equalizer, an OD, and a jack port to plug a Headset in if you dont want your neighbors to hear you.

Overall, a good beginner amp to learn the basics !

Plug in and go!

the handling is convenient, however, the power cord is not long enough, make sure to have a plug nearby. the overdrive can work as a low pedal for you and it can be for indoor training

Sound is good, loud. You can use it either at home in room and noone will hear you or you can turn volume on 10 and "make a concert" for your neighbours.

Basic, for practising

A very basic amp, good for home purposes and practice

Good

For this price and for beginners it is very good buy. Putting volume on max will give very bad sound, but the idea is to use it in your room and not make your neighbors crazy. On middle volume the sound is good.

Simple amp for beginners

This is a usable amp for people starting out on guitar. The sound is fairly good and it cleans up really well with just a press of a button. The volume knob can be a bit weird sometimes, when a tiny rotation causes a really big change in volume, but otherwise the amp is really good value!

The Perfect Amp for Home Practice and Portability

As a guitar player, I was looking for a compact and affordable amp that would allow me to practice at home without disturbing my family or neighbors. The Harley Benton HB-10G seemed like the perfect option - and I have to say, it exceeded my expectations.

Firstly, the 10 Watt power is more than enough for practicing at home or in a small rehearsal room. The sound quality is impressive, thanks to the custom-voiced speaker and TEC tube-emulating circuit. Whether I wanted a clean tone or some overdrive, the HB-10G delivered.

Speaking of overdrive, I really enjoyed the switchable overdrive channel. It allowed me to add some grit and distortion to my playing, which was perfect for rock and metal riffs. I also appreciated the 3-band EQ controls, which let me fine-tune my sound to my liking.

Another feature that I found useful was the headphone output. This meant that I could practice silently late at night without waking anyone up. The AUX input was also handy for playing along to backing tracks or songs from my phone.

The size and weight of the amp are perfect for portability, too. It's easy to carry around and doesn't take up much space in my home studio. Overall, I'm very happy with my purchase of the Harley Benton HB-10G. It's an affordable and versatile amp that's perfect for practicing at home or on the go. Highly recommended!
