Harley Benton HBO-850BK Reviews

Amazing

Amazing guitar... sounds great.. love it!!!

Great guitar

Great sound, not quite different from its high-priced counterpart, one string broke by itslef at rest after a few months of light use. I do recommend it.

Good Product

IT is so far the best guitar that I had! During covid I started learning seriously how to play guitar and this one is my favourite ! The only thing the materials are not so great, my guitar does strange noises after one year and the package was a bit broken and I cannot put the belt to the guitar because the pin for hanging it it arrived broken.

Just perfect!

This is my accoustic guitar for my home studio :)

Normal guitar

Excellent quality. I was confused by the strings and the anchor. But everything works well. Let's see how it behaves over time.

The person who was engaged in 15688589. Thank you! Everything is very fast and high quality! The Germans have once again proved that they are very accurate, punctual and responsible people.

you. I will order products only from you! I advise everyone!

With love from Russia!

Great sounding guitar for little money

For the price I was very impressed at the quite rich sound that it produces. I would certainly recommend it to people starting playing guitar as a cheap good value for money western guitar.

Great guitar!!!

Great guitar. Everything can be forgiven for this cost. The glue that can be seen on the gluing of the neck and the cheap tone block completely pays off at a cost of $ 100. For Russian buyers, there is no duty to pay! So the option is great!

Amazing

The guitar plays great, looks great, and sounds great!

There is really nothing negative I can say, I've played guitars that cost 3-4 times as much as this and I would be confident in saying this is comparable. The guitar plays beautifully, the finish is fantastic, and the pickup sounds great plugged in, and for just a quick unplugged acoustic jam it sounds great, literally nothing to complain about and I would absolutely buy this guitar again! Picked up 3 Harley Benton guitars and I cant say enough good things about them!

Really nice

absolutely the best for the money

Good purchase

Best cost benefit for those who can't afford a Godin. Electric sound is crystal clear and it's comfortable to play seated. Processing, shipping and shop procedures are reliable and all is ok.

wow!

Its an overall excellent guitar for the price-excellent value for money deal.

Its a nice versatile guitar, with descent electronics which you can play in various styles. Nice body and fret also. Easily could compared with guitars at least in the double price.

Pros: obviously value for money, great sound, “easy” to play

Cons: Actually there is nothing bad to say about this guitar

very nice guitar and affordable

Harley Benton HBO-850BK

All the materials show the high quality of the product and the sound make it even better.

Perfect guitar for begginers and great guitar for experts.

Would suggest to anyone.

Great Entry level steel string

Great addition to my other Harley Bentons. I already own well over a dozen Harley Bentons including the classical nylon string model of this guitar, as well as the round body acoustic bass of this family (cousins). I'm a bassist and beginner guitarist but my wife is a performing musician. I bought this one to keep in the living room to grab when we hear a song of interest. Sounds good with strings replaced (the ones that came with it were not at all warm). The wood veneer decorative pieces needed a spot of glue, but all in all this is a decent guitar at a fantastic price that I would highly recommend for a beginner or student, or a good "beater" that you don't have to be fussy about where you set it or lay it down. The ABS round back lets you just lay it anywhere without worry about scratching it up or damaging it. Great value. Recommended.

In love with this guitar

When I first played this guitar, in fact, it was my teacher's guitar, I couldn't believe my...hands :-)

Next day I ordered one for me, in a different colour. Amazing guitar, value for money, amazing sense, amazing neck, too easy to play, amazing body, too comfortable, cool sound. The factory set up was perfect regarding my tastes.

All my musician friends, but all of them, when they saw and played with this guitar, asked me about the price. When they heard ithe price they could believe that it didn't cost 250-300 euro but just 100euro.

I would buy the same in a different colour.

Good and bad

If you want to buy you first guitar, you can buy it and you will be satisfied. But if you want good instrument and you understand some guitar things, you will be disappointed, because quality of that guitar is not high (traces of glue in holes, clang of strings on half of neck, weak bridge and so on). Sound is not bad, its interesting and nice, this is main plus of that guitar.

Why did I wait so long?

I've had my eye on these guitars for years and was hesitant to buy ,being put off by some poor reviews ,but I finally succumbed,

So what did I get?

A guitar that punches way above its price,I've owned a solid top guild dreadnought that didn't sound as sweet!

The set up was perfect sub2mm string height,super level fretwork,

Immaculate Finnish,

Slick machine head's,plus a nice sounding preamp.

I've only dropped 1star off this guitar for the sharp unfinished fret ends ,which was an easy fix,.

The only thing I would advise anyone buying this guitar to do is don't judge it's quality until you get rid of the weird strings it come fitted with! 10s my ear! I fitted Harley Benton coated 10s ,and gave the nut a quick dress with one of those small welding nozzle cleaning file kits you can pick up for 5 euros!.

Was I just fortunate to get a good one ,seems not because I bought my wife the blue one and it's just as good,if only I'd tried one before I'd have saved myself a fortune .

Great roundback

Used it for home playing, so I have to admit, I never plugged it into an amp, so can't really judge the quality of the pickup sound, but as a purely acoustic instrument it had a great, bright sound.

Had some slight cosmetic flaws, like the leaf detail on the top of it was a bit rough and not completely glued in one part, but otherwise the build quality was excellent. And I think the guitar overall looks beautiful.

Feels great to play, even with the roundback design, which is known to be a bit unstable when placed in your lap. So I would recommend just putting a strap on, even when playing sitting down, so it's kind of held in place.

Did not have any issues with how it was set up out of the box.

Great, inexpensive alternative to the Ovation roundbacks.

My wife loves her Harley Benton

Very please with this guitar. The finish is beautiful and the setup works very well. Looking forward to my next purchase.

WAR MACHINE

This acoustic guitar is a war machine, every time i go out this baby comes with me... beautiful acoustic sound, good resonance and bright. i recommend... 5 STARS
