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.

Yes

the guitar came in three weeks, it would be even faster if it were not for the Russian post. there were two pickguards in the kit, a lot of protection on the guitar itself. frets need to be sanded, but these are trifles. the sound of the guitar is good, spacious, readable. I did not notice any defects, it glitters. highly recommend for purchase

Nice!

It's a really nice guitar for home practicing for playing on small birthday gigs and so on. I couldn't be happier with it because you really get a lot for the money. The sound is really awesome. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to learn how to play guitar.

Great twang for your buck!

I bought this as a side thing, for travelling or for when I can't be bothered to fire up the electric but still wanna hear what I play. I've been pretty happy so far. It sounds nice and clear, it looks good and the finish and details are all pretty decent for the price. The guitar not too light and feels sturdy, which is a bonus for me: I don't like instruments that feel too "flimsy".

It plays pretty easy thanks to the big frets and smooth neck, no sprout or anything to complain about in that department. The tuners could be slightly better, but maybe it's just the strings that needed stretching or replacing. I used it to teach a beginner, as well (me on electric, her on this one), and she also found it great.

A solid acoustic at a friendly price, would recommend to any beginner or even advanced player who wanted "just one more guitar" without breaking the bank.

Absolutely worth it for someone with low commitment

One can't really ask for more at the price point this is given at. You get a perfectly playable Acoustic which would be perfect for people not sure if they want to commit since the price point is so low. My only complaints which is totally understandable for its price are the slightly sharp frets, dusty and smelly sound hole and slightly scary tuning process as somethings seems to be under tension.

Great sound for this price

the guitar sounds very good for its price. frets cling, but this can be corrected by the master.

Sounds more expensive than it is

Honestly I can't believe the price is so low. It sounds better than my old guitar which was a Fender worth €400.

Am I reading this right

Wow,wow,wow ,I was well surprised, solid spruce top ,X bracing ,maghony back &sides the tone woods are here ,action is great and neck so playable ,I have seen guitars 4 times more expensive that don't have this quality,not only suited for beginners but a one for all,it's a workhorse which you can bring anywhere ,and will only get better in time due to its solid woods ,and oh the price I pinched myself amazing value when all the middle men are taken out ,sometimes there is a snobbery when prices are cheap and you automatically think something is lacking quality, not here a excellent guitar ,I highly recommend
