Harley Benton SC-450Plus LD Vintage Series Reviews

Was expecting more

The Harley Benton SC-450Plus LD Vintage Series fell short in terms of sound quality and overall quality control. While it showcases a vintage aesthetic, the sound did not meet my expectations, and there were noticeable issues with the guitar's build quality. It may be a viable option for budget-conscious beginners, but for more discerning players, it might be worth investing in a higher-quality instrument.

Perfect shape, sound and painting!

The best choice if you want a LP style guitar!

Sc-450 plus

Love the colour love the sound. A fantastic bargain Les Paul style guitar

Beautiful and comfortable, but certainly not a Gibson

For such a low price, it is difficult to demand perfect sound from a guitar, so, judging everything honestly, I will say that the sound here is a bold 7/10 or 4 stars. Everything else is great, highly recommended!

Great bang

Plays great in anyway just need to lower the action and polish the frets a bit. Then its fun to play.

Wonderful guitar

This is an excellent guitar in all respects.

Great quality guitar

I owned a Gibson les Paul studio in the past and this one is one of the closest guitars to that one. If you want an affordable alternative and a good guitar this is for you.. the main difference is the cut and the wiring (not 50s or 60s but closer to the modern les Paul’s)

The guitar came setup really well and playable from day1

Awesome lemon bust

I love this color of this guitar, had to have it, this my second one of these I own, love the coil split Roswells, I don't have to change guitar out as much. The sustain on this guitar is amazing.

My basis for a Greeny!

Building this into a tribute to the Greeny!

I must say that this is a very well made guitar. What you get for the money is a lot.

Low price high quality

Stunned by the quality of this guitar , had to lower action to suit me ,frets perfect, finish fantastic couple of tiny imperfections but not an issue highly recommend.

Holy Sh*t

Was truly blown away by this. Plays perfectly, not a single issue, and is better than guitars 10x the price. Will recommend for sure.

Great Epiphone alternative

Previously owned a few Epiphones, can honestly say this is better in every way (Price, sound, look)

Great money for value

I have received the guitar in good condition, replaced the strings and had to send the frets in order to play the guitar.

The knobs feels good but the plastic cover of the button that switch between the bridge and neck pickups fell down.

The neck is small and have minor "bumps" so its hard to slide the hand over it smoothly, compering to high level guitars.

Pickups are nice and the overall sound of the guitar is really good.

At the end of the day I enjoy playing the guitar but I will use it for practice purposes, this guitar definitely worth the money I have invest on her.

I didnt expect too much, but wow I was surprised at the quality of build and tone

I have read the reviews, watched the videos and yet I was skeptical about these budget guitars, however I need not have worried. It arrived with no tension on the truss rod and needing a little TLC but once setup and frets cleaned I havent put it down. The tones are creamy and can punch when you want them to, there are a couple of tiny flaws that frankly unless you really really look you cannot see them, I had the same issues with guitars 5x the price.

I like it so much that I will be sending it to a luthier to get it as nice as possible and perhaps add shielding to the pickups (although I havent noticed anything negative without it). The action is a touch high and I cant get it lower without introducing buzz so these small things will be sorted in time. It hasnt in any way deminished my love of the instrument and I still pick it up daily. A couple of small upgrades and Ill have a guitar I want to play and keep forever. Im already eyeing up a couple of other HB's.

So much guitar for so little money!

I’m blown away with the quality of this guitar for such a low price, which included shipping to the U.S.

It’s in near perfect condition (frets need to be polished) and can rival a guitar 3-4 times it’s cost.

Love it!

I've been wanting an LP style for some time but couldn't find one I liked at a price I liked. Then I saw a YouTube review for a Harley Benton and said for that price how can I go wrong. I didn't. Buy one you won't regret it.

Harley Benton SC-450Plus LD Vintage Series

Very impressed with the quality of the guitar. I can’t find anything to complain about. Feels and plays like my more expensive guitars. Wow!
