Very nice and quality guitar

Very nice guitar for the price. It sure needs some fretwork. (the edges of the frets are quite pointy.). Also some polishing for the frets.

I cannot believe this price for such a quality guitar

I purchased this guitar a while ago and cannot believe what quality you get for one hundred dollar range. The ONLY weak point in this guitar is the pickups. But remine you it's under $200.00. I installed one Seymour Duncan bridge and now the guitar is super awesome. If you are a beginner and have the time to learn how to tune a Floyd Rose style bridge this would be an incredible deal. If you are a seasoned player all you need to do is upgrade the pickups and you have a $1,000.00 plus quality guitar. I own many guitars and have been owning this guitar for a while and cannot stop thinking I bought this guitar for under $200.00 and put one Seymour Duncan pickup and it keeps up with my Jackson with a Floyd but well over the price. Buying this guitar is a win win situation. I have bought a few guitars from Harley Benton and received great customer service. I just purchased a B-Stock CST-24 for a great discounted price and just got it in and I promise I could not find one single scratch on it. It was the first B-Stock guitar I ever bought. I think most of the B-Stock guitars are returned just because they did not want it not because of something wrong with it.

Good pricing

#The guitar has a solid price for its features and looks.

*The finishing looks awesome with transparent red and gold hardwares, giving an evil-royally (if that's even a word) looks. The body is ergonomics in my opinion, slimmer in the middle and you can easilly reach the last frets, so good for you if you want to shreds. However my unit has a tiny imperfection on the bottom of the body (finishing-wise), but it's not very noticeable.

*The neck feels smooth enough for me, don't have any issues with that

*Sounds very good

*Floyd Rose could be a pros & cons, pros because at this price point you basically got more feature, especially if that's what you really want. Cons because as we already know setting up, tuning and changing strings on Floyd Rose guitar requires extra efforts.

*Overall it's a solid guitar for its price. I got what i pay for and so far happy for that.

My 1st Floyd Rose!

People usually complain about how difficult it is to tune a Floyd rose, honestly it is quite easy and this is my first Floyd rose guitar. I put a Seymour Duncan JB Humbucker, sounds awesome. Neck feels amazing, fast playability, like really fast. I love doing divebombs on this, it stays in tune for the most part unless you punish it with divebombs. Pickup switch is a bit loose but it doesn't matter really. Will be looking forward to supporting Harley Benton in the future, true quality.

Awesome Guitar

This is my first guitar and to tell the truth it's very beautiful and the sound quality is great. The only small issue it has is when you try to tune it, you first need to unscrew some screws at the bridge and the neck of the guitar than adjust the strings.

Awesome guitar at cheap price

this was my third hb, i have to say... im deeply impressed, the pickups are nice and warm, the fr is just a fantastic toy and looks stunning, the arm holder is a little loose, but i fix it with an allan key, the selector switch is a little loose, but ah i dont give a damn, the neck of mine was even flamed, and it looks like a trucking beast, i do really think everyone should have one, buy hb, make it grow as a brand, lets make people like hb even more

S-620 TR Rock Series

i got this guitar recently it is my first Harley Benton and for the price my expectation was low but it did amazed me. the frets were nice and nicely polish. the set up was right on (out of tune but not a big deal) the neck feels unfinished wich feels great is a bit bigger than what you would find on a strat but still comfortable to play with. the only con i have about the guitar i got is that the selector switch is a little loose (wobbly). it play's well and sounds good i was really impressed.

S-620 TR

This guitar is insane value for money. The Floyd, tuners, electrics, pickups all function perfectly. The finish is immaculate, the neck smooth and fast, I cannot give too high a recommendation for this guitar. Of course there has to be one negative thing and in this case it is the output jack socket which does not grip the plug as well as I would like so that will be changed. If you want to try out a Floyd Rose style guitar for crazy cheap, look no further!

Brilliant Guitar

I have had this gutiar for about half a year now and its very good.

Pros: - The Floyd rose is great quality

- It stays in tune when using the FR

- Looks stunning

- The neck feels very comfortably

Cons : - The volume knob scraps the body slightly but this might just be on my one

- The 3 way switch feels a little cheap

- The Gold knobs don't match the bridge nut and tuners (the bridge nut and tuners do match, its just the knobs)

- The fretboard on mine is a little bit dry so it might need oiling.

Sound: I haven't mentioned sound simply because it depends on your amp and pedals but for me its got a very good sound.

Conclusion : Its a brilliant guitar for the price, you wont get another with a floyd rose for this price. And if you do I doubt it will be as good quality. The pros outweigh the cons to me. However this just isn't my kind of guitar for the style of music I play and I find the "fine tuners" on the floyd rose to be a little in the way.

HB S-620 TR

I was not expecting too much from the HB S-620 but I was surprised at the excellent value for money. Everything worked as expected, I only had to set up the Floyd Rose. The sound from the pickups is not too bad ether, to my ears the lower E String seems to produce more Bass than most of my other guitars.

Can't really fault it, nice and easy to play.

Fantastic guitar for such a low price

This guitar is way better than I expected. It is the best guitar you can get for such a low price. It looks amazing, it's well built and sounds very nice. If this is gonna be your second or third guitar then it is an excellent choice, but if you already have five, six or more guitars and you want something that is very high quality then you should probably save up some more money for a more expensive one. The only negative comment I can say about this instrument is that the tremolo is not very stable (I can keep it in tune for about a week if I don't do anything extreme with it).

I think that it was a great choice that I bought this instrument. I play it every day and for some reason, I cannot get bored of this guitar.
