Great for the price

I expected way less for the price. I was looking for an instrument that I can pick up from time to time, which I wouldn't mind to not use often, so I settled on this one. The sound is pretty good and the frame is sturdy. I had to sand the frets, because they cut my hand when I played it. But sanding frets is a very quick and easy thing to do and I didn't mind doing that myself. Other problems I found, which weren't deal breakers for me: * the bridge when cleaned releases the paint * tuners feel cheap * frets are thin The factory strings were surprisingly good, only 1 broke so far over 8+ months of non-regular playing. Overall, I would recommend if you want to give guitar a go or if you're an electric guitar player wanting to have an acoustic. Great value for money!

Great guitar for Starting out.

The Harley Benton D-120NT is a great choice for beginners looking to get their first acoustic guitar. It's affordable but still sounds good, with a nice, full tone thanks to its dreadnought shape. The spruce top and mahogany back and sides give it a warm, balanced sound. Plus, the neck is comfy and easy to play. It might not have all the fancy details of more expensive guitars, but it's solid and reliable. Overall, the D-120NT is a great pick for anyone starting out and wanting a decent guitar without spending too much

A little rough around the edges

As expected for the price, the ends of the frets cut a little when sliding your fingers along the neck. I did not notice any other issues however. The guitar looks great, the abalone imitation around the whole looks okay. It is the simplest, most basic guitar, but it sounds great!

Better than it ought to be

I got this for a campfire guitar, having broken my old one. I was surprised at how huge it sounds for the price. Choice of scratchplates included too, which is nice, but a second strap button would have been appreciated. Quite shiny finish and the headstock is a bit big, but general assembly seems sound. I gave the trussrod a tweak and got the action ridiculously low. It sounds nicer than the guitar it replaced, despite being less than half the price, and is even nice to play. Impressed.

Eerste gitaar

Hele degelijke beginnersgitaar.

Heb zelf geen ervaring met andere gitaren, maar deze voelt gewoon goed in de hand.

Eigenlijk een no-brainer om als eerste gitaar te kopen voor deze prijs.

A truly beautiful and affordable guitar

I had heard a bunch of good things about Harley Benton guitars and decided to try this acoustic one.

The first thing I noticed was that look, I fell in love as soon as I got it out of the box. I loved the neck as I started to play, but the sides of the frets need a bit of filing. But for the price I think I got quite a good guitar.

a great budget acoustic

i bought this to use at home as a backup guitar, and it's perfect for that use! not sure i'd record or gig with it, but for beginners or anyone needing a backup it's ideal.
