All good apart from the Floyd rose special, the string clamps wore out very quickly

I'M GONNA PLAY THIS GUITAR TO PIECES!

I didn't buy it for the cosmetics, but it's gorgeous! I got it for the Floyd Rose and it's working out surprisingly well after a few minor adjustments. The electronics are all fully functional and I think it sounds pretty great stock. My Van Halen riffs are starting to sound a bit like Van Halen riffs! I really couldn't be happier with my purchase. It traveled halfway around the world to get to me and it feels rock solid. Sweet guitar! I'm gonna play it every day.

incredible guitar for serious musicians

Super low string action and powerful pickups with a great locking tremolo. This guitar is stage ready for any type of music. The finish is flawless and beautifull. After dive bombs and pull ups, it stays in tune and keeps on jamming. You simply can't go wrong with Harley Benton S-620 TB Rock Series.

This is an amazing guitar for the price!

The pickups are great, the Floyd stays in tune well enough. And the setup was amazing, what more could be asked from a 250$ guitar?

Great guitar at any price. But at this price it is a steal.

Great guitar. Came with no defects. Plays great, sounds great. I've been playing it more than my go to strat since I got it so that is saying a lot.

Overall amazing

This is my first guitar and it's amazing

The sound is a lot better than i expected (connected to an higher-end amp/pickups arent bad at all)

The floyd rose it's also a good quality one for it's price.

The fredboard feels premium

I have been playing on it for a little over 2 months on it and i have no complains. (My guitar teacher also played on it and he was a bit surprised for what you can get at it's price)

If i could i would give it more than 5 stars

I recommend buying this guitar with all your trust, i couldn't be more satisfied with this product than i already am.

First and almost perfect electric guitar

Guitar looks like really expensive and premium. Blue color with golden tremolo and tuners looks gorgeous and general appearance is just WoAw!

Sound is really good and theres nothing to say more. Most important thing that electric guitar don't do any bad sounds or smth like that and so it don't. It's good.

When it just came to me and i tried to play, tuned strings and after playing about 30 minutes first string just fetched away from tremolo. Yeess i understand that it can be my fault and maybe i don't know much about its tremolo but be careful and read more about Floyd Rose before buying, howbeit after changing the strings (This is hardest thing that i ever did to my guitar) its perfect.

Beautiful instrument, really wowed!

Everything that I read about it was spot on. Beautiful guitar and after sitting for a day or so it is finally acclimated to where I live, being shipped from Germany to the USA here in Texas. The only thing that they need to work on is the fine-tuning knobs on the locking tremolo system seem to be made of plastic, about a $5 US fix, otherwise a very beautiful guitar with no blemishes in its fit or finish or electronics.

I would highly recommend this guitar to anyone looking for a great instrument at a great price!

Very nice guitar

Received on 30/03/2021. First impressions are, nice looking guitar. The finish is flawless and looks nice in blue with the gold hardwear. The neck is also flawless and the back of the neck has a lovely smooth satin finish, without a blemish in sight. The volume and tone knobs feel very smooth and roll off nicely, better than expected at this price. The only issue that i have found, is that the volume knob protrudes above the body, but does not affect its operation in any way. The pickups are unnamed, but sound ok, just sound a bit thin on the bridge pick. The tuners look nice and seem to have a smooth resistance to them. The FR by HB trem seem to be well made and is not too stiff like some i have tried. Overall, i think for the money, this is a very good guitar. Ive now bought 5 HB guitars, and would certainly recommend this one, cam always swap out the pickups at a later date.

A terrific Floyd Rose-equipped guitar for a fantastic price.

The sapphire-blue paint job and gold hardware were enough to convince me to get one of these. The great neck with nice binding and good fretwork made me think it was a steal. The decent high-output pickups put this deal over the top. The solid Floyd Rose-licensed bridge was only slightly wobbily, which I fixed with a 1x1 cm piece of paper and BOOM!....I had a Floyd Rose-equipped guitar for less than half the cost of a Floyd Rose 1000 bridge.

Don't let the price fool you...this would be an awesome Floyd Rose-equipped guitar for any beginner...or someone that simply likes the aethetic beauty of a sapphire blue paintjob matched with gold hardware.

IT WORTH IT!

Deciding in between the red on and the blue one, i did the right choice and took this one.

The translucid blue with the gold details its just an eye candy.

Playability:

The neck feel fast. Im not a fast player, but I can see how comfortable it can be it you are a shreeder. Quite a thin feeling in the neck, yet very solid feel.

Sounds:

Clean sounds are rich. I have this guitar on B standar and the lows are delicious. The sustain its impresively "long" compared to other guitars this price range.

Distortions feels just perfect. It chugs and the dinamics that this pickups offer its just surprisingly good!

Floyd Rose can be tricky if you've never had one to intonate and tune, but it becomes a "pro" instead of a "con" after you learn how to use fully and adjust one.

Takes time but it worth it.

Otherhand you could just block the floyd rose and not think about it with a piece of wook in between the block and the guitar cavity and you problem will be solved.

The only "neg feedback" I could give its that the toggle switch feels a bit "cheap" as it wobbles a bit, but this becomes irrelevant at this price range and the fact that it does work correctly without extra sounds or interference makes it worth the price. YOu could also change it and it wont take you more than 10 minutes and medium to low soldering skills.

TLDR:

- Fast neck

- BEAUTIFUL GUITAR TO LOOK AT.

- Sounds fantastic for rock and i can testify that for metal also.

- Clean tones are rich in low and mid frequencies.

- Floyd Rose (Licenced) bridge advantage

- THE PRICE of this instrument its just too good to let it pass if you are thinking on getting one.

You cannot get a better deal for the price.

This S-620 is a beautiful guitar. I like the shape of the neck and the body of the guitar feels great when playing. The item shipped quickly and there were no glitches.

I was amazed at the quality for the price.

As an old man of 66 that hasn't played a guitar since I was 20 ( I sucked back then) I have been wanting to learn to play again. This guitar caught my eye on YouTube reviews. I know a Floyd Rose in not recommended for beginners but being the ultimate tinkerer and with You Tube guides I figured what the hell. I wasn't disappointed.

I am a beginner so can't speak about technical specs but what I can say is I am very impressed by the quality, specially at only $142. I could see no defects in the finish, the frets are nice and smooth, it has a great sound on my Marshall amp.

Of course I couldn't keep my hands off the trem and totally screwed up the tuning but happy to say with a bit (OK, a lot) of tinkering it is back to normal. I love this guitar because if it was some expensive name brand I would have been hesitant to play with the trem. For $142 it is a nice guitar to take apart and play with. I learned a lot from this S-620 already.

As for playing, an inexpensive guitar in my day was junk that was almost impossible to play. This has a nice fee. It came with a very nice set up and I am able to play easily.

The Pros? $142 got me a guitar with which I am quite happy. It is pretty, plays well, sounds good. Did I mention it is only $142? ;-)

The Cons? Nothing about which I can complain.

If you are looking for an entry level guitar (and willing to learn how to set up a Floyd Rose Trem) I have to say this is a very nice one.

So good!

This is my first electric guitar and I am very happy that I was able to buy it! Someone may say that Floyd Rose is not for beginners, and will be right. But I was ready for difficulties and meant what I was doing. I was very pleased that she immediately had good Daddario strings. The sound is pleasant, the background is almost absent. After setting up, playing it is a pleasure. The tool is definitely worth the money. I think I will order Harley benton products more than once.
