Harley Benton HBO-850NT

Really amazing for a reasonable price.

Great but...

Unfortunately I was expecting more, I really loved it acoustically but hated it plugged in a PA.. no tuner in the pre-amp.. bit of ground noise.. and no access on the round back to fit new pick up.. pity as it was beautiful to play right out of the box

Harley Benton HBO 850NT

This is an Ovation style guitar. This guitar was playable right out of the box. It really projects the sound well even playing without a amp. I purchased the hard body ABS case with this guitar and it fits nicely. The case is well built too. The decorative panels on top of the guitar face have sharp edges but did not interfere in any way playing the guitar. I think the headstock is attached to the neck using a scarf joint. Well made guitar. I’ve had this for months now and lots of playing. Zero problems. Tuners hold the string tune well.

Great sounding and beautiful guitar

It is a show-stopper, very beautiful finish and design . its light and has a great feel, its very ergonomic. I have play a lot of gigs at friends parties and it never disappoints, its a great guitar for the price that it sells for.

About me:

Been playing for over 35 years, average at best. Mostly a 70s rockhead, Stones, CCR... I can play anything if you don’t mind it sounding like Chuck Berry….Ha Ha…

I have about 20 guitars (only 1 acoustic... well now 2...) Some good - USA 72 Deluxe Tele, PRS SE Custom 24 Exotic Top, Ibanez S series, some not so good – the wife has a Hanna Montana Washburn… crazy woman…

I recently bought the HB CST24HB and TE-70 Paisley and loved them so much that I followed up by buying the CST-24T Black Flame and the TE-90QM Trans Red. Now I have just purchased the Harley Benton TE-40 TBK Deluxe Series and the Harley Benton HBO-850NT.

Review of the Harley Benton HBO-850NT:

Pros:

This guitar looks amazing.

Sounds great.

It has a slim neck, the action is nice.

Very light.

Tuners are really good

Cons:

Couple of tweaks to the truss rod, now plays well.

Conclusion:

As an almost exclusive electric player I don't know how to compare this. I have always found acoustic guitar to be hard work, this plays quite nice and sounds very good.

If I can play it , it must be good. 100% recommended.

Great guitar for the price

These guitars are quite nice: good sound, neck, pickup. It may require a little tweaking to get the most out of it, but it is worth the effort.

Absolutely love it

I'll admit I was skeptical over the quality of the guitar due to the low price but I am absolutely thrilled about the guitar. I love it and you definetly have yoourself a loyal customer!

Awesome sound!

Great guitar! Thin and smooth fretboard just what a beginer need. Beautiful sound too.
