Harley Benton R-446 Green Metallic 5-stars Reviews

Someone guessed I paid 1000$ for it.

When I got this guitar I asked my friends what they thought I paid for it ($194) - people were guessing everywhere from 500-1000$. This is a an obviously well made and striking guitar.

It looks like it came from a "premium" vendor and it did, but HB didn't charge a premium price.

The finish is flawless, the hardware is surprisingly good for the price and while I hand it a 4 stars on sound, I think that's a tremendous accomplishment, especially at this price point.

It lacks the sustain and resonance of my Schecter and PRS guitars, but I paid 5 times a much for them!

At volume with both pickups going playing power chords in drop D, only really experienced people are going to make the distinction - is a great guitar.

I will buy several more in different finishes to set at different tunings and have no qualms about playing them in front of people.

Beginner or expert - this is a great buy.

Retired player.....

5 stars for all items? Well yes. Have been playing a bit over 50 years and have my share of " top brand guitars ". This is actually the 6th guitar I have purchased from Harley and as always, just about perfect.

No issues with shipping, well packed, no damage. Pristine right out of the box. Only had to tune it up and plug it in. Intonation spot on, frets smooth...no rough edges. Action perfect for me with no fret buzz. The 5 way switch gives alot of varied tones being able to hit most generes.

To me the guitar just sounds great and am happy with how it plays.

The reason for the 5 stars is I doubt you will find a guitar with this much quality for this very low price. If I was still out there playing gigs, I would not hesitate to use this ax on stage.

All I can say is, even if this type of guitar is not for you, style wise, check out one that would fit your needs. I can promise you , there will be no dissapointment.

Great budget guitar

Most importantly, this guitar has the thinnest fretboard radius out of the Harley Benton catalog (400 mm or 15.75").

The pickups sound great. There were no issues with the quality of manufacturing, however the saddle was too low and needed to be adjusted.

All in all, it's a great guitar

Great guitar for price

Love this guitar for the price you really can't go wrong. Good feel and build quality. Nice sounds but I would of loved a coil split to give it more stars. Colour is great, very happy
