Harley Benton HBO-850 Classic Natural 4-stars Reviews

good for its price

It's a pretty good guitar that works with Neural DSP amps. However, it needs some luthier work for optimal performance. I did not experience any major defects other than very small part missing which you can hardly see from the decoration (wings) part which does not affect the sound.

Nice guitar for the price

Out of the box the action was very high making the the guitar largely unplayable, however this was rectified with truss rod adjustments and removing the bridge saddle and sanding it down to my preferred low action and the guitar now plays beautifully. Sharp, poorly dressed fret ends right across the neck which will benefit from dressing. The leaf motifs on the soundboard are glued on and not inlayed. Onboard electronics are okay. In summary, a nice guitar for the price if you are able to make the necessary set up adjustments.

Good musical instrument

I bought this guitar because I love the way Yngwie Malistin's nylon string solos sound. I played this guitar in line 6 spider and the sound was great. It is necessary to sharpen the frets around the edges a little and everything will be great.

Great guitar for this price

Bought this guitar to practice at home. Stock strings sounds awful, you should change them as soon as possible. Then it'll sound pretty well.

This guitar is very different from normal one: it's thin and it has rounded back so it's hard to handle it without belt (so you should buy it too).

In some reviews I've read that there could be some problems with quality, but my version if cool.

Would recommend this guitar for starters like me

VERY NICE FOR THE PRICE

Just change the string and have fun!

Great value for money guitar

This is probably the best deal on the market for this price (100 euro). The sound is a bit thin and "plastic" but can be tweaked to sound quite big and full, check it out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5VpsM9eEXP0
