Harley Benton HBO-600BK 5-stars Reviews

Surprisingly Outstandinv

Received quickly, and the quality was quite shocking. Gigged live with it after a couple tweaks and everyone was blown away. Very good guitar for the price and it sounds awesome live.

What did I expect?

Well, seeing as this is the third HBO guitar in my collectionI expected not to be surprised, as the blue HBO-600 and the natural HBO-850 I bought before were just fine in every way. But this new arrival pleased me greatly, the neck has a beautiful grain pattern, sort of a "flame" - which enhances the appearance greatly. I know it's a "random" but I consider myself lucky. Anyway, these HBO's are fantastic guitars, worth every pfennig/cent whatever. I can't recommend them enough.

Its the best!!

You will not EVER get a guitar like this for the price!!

nice guitar

plays like the ovation and my opinion

is still right on

its not the price of the guitar that makes the good guitar player

Excellent sounding guitar especially at the price

Very good pickup and Really warm Sound

Best buy guitar below 100eur

I needed a good electro-acoustic guitar for live shows, and my choice was right! This guitar has great playability, very good sound.

Setup is mandatory! The neck wasn't straight enough, the fretboard was too dry, frets were not polished well.

And of course, change strings!

Amazing sound

out of the box, this acoustic guitar not only looked awesome. but it sounded AMAZING. More than happy with my purchase, well worth the money and more besides

great sound

this guitar sounds great and is very affordable the pick up offers great settings stays in tune very well and looks very stylish

Best acoustic guitar I've ever owned and played

My first guitar was a single-cut classical body with steel strings made by a local luthier. When I moved I bought a Fender Dreadnought.When I moved again I bought this one. Having owned two guitars and played many others I kne what I wanted before buying this one. The roundback makes it very comfortable to hold (the other two where square and larger) and the shallow body makes it ideal to practice either picking or struming without being too loud. It has 24 frets which is great if you want to hit high notes when playing a solo and the thin neck gives it a playability almost equal to an electric guitar.

It has a very nice sound throughout the whole range and the fact that it has an active piezo electric pickup with a 3-band equalizer makes it very versatile. It came perfectly setup and sounded great, but now it slightly buzzes on the 5th-6th strings and 1st-3rd frets, but it could be my playing as my brother tried it and it barely buzzed. It could also be that the weather is colder and it may need an slight adjuytmend on the thrus-rod.

It has an excellent finish with many details that only high end guitars have. The ring around the sound hole and the fret markers give it a beautiful look.The ring aroung the hole is not fully flat against the body, althout this is not a problem in the sound, nor playability and it doens't get stuck on anything; it just could be better. I would have preferred that the fret markers went all the way to fret 24 and not stop on fret 19.

Having said all that, if you want a guitar that will sound great and costs as little as you can find this is the one for you. You will not be disappointed.

You need this guitar. its amazing

Bought this guitar to have in the back of my car as I'm driving a lot, Wanted to have a decent guitar to practice on when away from home, but not to expensive.

I have an Ovation Celebrity that's been everywhere for the past 10 years and used professionally, which this guitar is loosely based on.

I bought in the package deal, with padded gig bag.

I already have a Harley Benton Tele, so no surprise with the quality of the HBO-600BK. Straight out of the box needed the tiniest of tweaks to get back in tune. Standard strings lots of life in them.

No rattles or fret buzz, action more than decent with room for further adjustment. So easy to play.

Plugged in it is bright, rich and clear.

I changed the strings and shaved about 1mm off the bridge. Made a good guitar even better.

This is a lovely well constructed instrument at an incredible price. Whether you are learning, experienced or just looking for a good budget a guitar, it is hard to beat.

If you want guitar perfection you will have to spend a little bit more than the £99 for this deal.

Amazing value for money and a joy to play.

Excellent Value for money

This is a great little Session Guitar. I have a few guitars and have found this one to be very good to take out to do sessions with other musicians. The overall performance is only let down slightly by the action which seems a small bit high. Very easy to adapt to. Has a real nice sound and is very easy to tune. I'm not the lightest player but have found that even with my style of playing the guitar still stayed in tune mostly. For what you pay for this guitar there is not a chance you could ever get even a second hand guitar for this price that would sound anywhere near as good. Well done, another quality product at a recession busting price.

Keep up the good work.

Superb guitar for the price

I am impressed with the look of this guitar first and foremost. The trim around the hole reflects light and changes colour depending on where you stand. It has already attracted a lot of attention. The sound is respectable, if not outstanding, but overall the quality is very good, and represents excellent value for money.
