Harley Benton HBO-850 Blue 5-stars Reviews

Great value for price

For an entry guitar this is a great deal. The sound is more 'metalic' than a regular wood accoustic guitar but that's one of the features i like on it.

Fantastic sounding and looking guitar

I just have to say that this my first electric round back and what a beautiful sound well worth the money

Great Guitar- Great Value.

This guitar has everything that a similar one costing 3 times as much has, great sound. Great manufacturing quality and great value, this is my 3rd Harley Benton guitar, and will have no hesitation in purchasing more items from this company.

I realy like the sound its bright and also using a recording mic makes it sound good in recording sessions i very like the low action and playebility a good thing for us metalheads and a plus are the 24 frets . After using some fingerboard oil one the nek and the leafs it looks amazing A job well done Harley Benton.

Stunning!

Arrived today, got it straight out the box and had a little jam. Came out the box almost ready to play, I had to tune one of the strings. But I do that every time I pick my guitar up anyway. As a beginner and only been learning to play the guitar for about 6 months, I have little to no experience when it comes to guitars. And I'm not going to pretend I do. But saying that, for a less expensive 'budget' guitar, I am really really impressed. It covers all my needs. I think it sounds great, it's comfortable and the slim width makes it a lot easier for me to hold and play. I'm even tempted to buy another in a different colour. I'm sure there are more learnered players with greater expirence that could pick holes in it and find a negative, but for me it's perfect.

Must be the best value quality guitar available today!

Great value

Well made plays well for the price. Needed a bag but sweet sound through amp too I reccomend

GREAT V4M

Great value for money instrument with no flaws

Wonderful guitar!

Was playing a jumbo accoustic and wanted a slimmer body. This guitar delivers in spades! The sound is fabulous, and the quality for the money way exceeded any expectations I had. Lovely satin neck and action perfect. The frets may need a polish, but other reports of sharp edges proved false with my delivery. Up until now my weapon of choice was always electric, but this has changed due to the amazing sound and resonance of this fantastic instrument. I may well be ordering the accoustic strat model some time in the future

excellent buget acoustic guitar

I purchased this guitar for songwriting at home or on the move and It has proved its worth when either plugged in or just acoustically.. a little lightweight in construction it is more than functional with a decent action and good fretting. The pick up is a little weak and maybe a bit eletric sounding but it makes up for this with its straight acoustic sound which is excellent.. overall a good buy for any beginner or as a spare for any serious acoustic performer..

Great value considering the price

I bought this as to have as a cheap acoustic and i was surprised by how well it played.

I did have to make a few modifications but found it to have a great sound and feel

I replaced the plastic nut and bridge with a cheap bone set which i was able to buy cheap off amazon. Easy swap and major improvement to sound and sustain.

Build quality is decent but i did notice that the fretboard/frets were very rough and needed a good polish.

Pickup electronics are decent but i found i had to really roll off the bass to get a good tone.

Overall i really am enjoying this guitar, good job HB!

Nice

Good for a price, sound very well, looks good, just few production marks on a head but nothing serious. Recommended

Great guitar and value for money

Beautiful guitar. Other reviewers had commented on fret buzz and blemishes on finish. My guitar has neither issue - the finish is perfect. Sounds is great both acoustically and via the pickup. Only slight issue was (to me) the overly high action - I previously only play lead stuff on electrics so I'm probably not the best judge of this. However, a little adjustment of the truss rod took most of the neck relief out and fixed the issue. At the price, loverly guitar.

Это отличная гитара и для новичков и для профессионалов!!! Я очень доволен качеством продукта и сервисом магазина! Вы можете посмотреть обзор на моём канале: https://youtu.be/cmh8d8xKJ6E

great guitar for the price, sounds and plays well, action is a little high but other than that a great guitar for the price.

Insane quality for the price

It honestly plays like a higher quality guitar. It doesn't feel cheap at all and the sound quality even without an amp is kind of impressive. Love it.

Buy this. Put a set of Elixir 10s on it - you'll never put it down.

I played it a month before posting this review. Finish - very good. Action - out of the box very good, a fret polish (10 minute job) helped. Sound - acoustic is balanced with decent sustain, electric needs to be carefully adjusted via the good onboard controls (Spark40 and Marshall tested) but that's the same with any electroacoustic. Value - unbeatable. Any guitarist, any style, needs this as a sofa friend. ** Update after string change to Elixir 10s - the best hundred quid you can spend.

Amazing guitar. Such a clear sound one of the most beautiful I have ever seen!

Great guitar

I am very pleased with my HBO-850. I had none of the dirtiness that others have mentioned. The frets are scratchy and need polishing and I will do that myself soon. I found no flaws in the finish on this one and it sounds great both acoustically and electrically. There is some wood missing from the fretboard surface at the highest three frets, a kind of gouge in the timber which shouldn't have passed inspection, but I'm unlikely ever to reach those. Hard to fault at this price.

I can't believe how much I enjoy playing this guitar

I added this guitar to my order as an afterthought. I needed an acoustic guitar with a pickup for those occasional "acoustic" gigs with amplification. Our band had recently played a gig where miscommunication resulted in our having to mic our guitars, and I thought this might be an economical way to deal with this. I had ordered a blue guitar for my son, and I added this during the wait for his to be delivered. I am really happy. The guitar looks amazing and plays beautifully. The only criticisms I have are that the tuning mechanisms could be a little better; and it is so new, that I can smell the glue from the body. That being said, a good set of locking tuners costs as much as this guitar! The neck is easy to play, and the action is amenable to leads in the higher neck positions. The frets were in need of a rub down with my polishing cloth, but that's all that was required. I really enjoy playing this guitar, and it has become my "go to" acoustic guitar. If you need a guitar like this, just order it and use the savings to buy it a hard shell case like I did.
