Incredible value. Sounds great!

New to lap steel so this entry point made sense for me. Honestly feel like I won't need to upgrade from this. One thing that needs to be improved is the stability of the legs but overall this is an excellent value that sounds great!

very good for beginners

It's a great option for beginners, very good quality for the price. I'd suggest swapping the pickup with an higher output one, but the standard one will work ok.

A good instrument for a great price

This is my first lap steel guitar and I honestly enjoyed it from the very first moment. I was especially surprised by the efficiency of the tuning, you can play for our at different tunes and the tuning stays unchanged.

Great guitar for a small amount of money.

great for the value

I?ve never played one before, so I?m not maybe a reliable reviewer, but I like it. I had some problems intalling the legs, but it feels solid. Tge tone is god, but again I?m not an expert.

Well spent money

I recently decided I wanted to try learn Lap steel and was at a lost as what to buy and where.

Upon seeing this product and the price I decided it seemed excellent to get a flavour of what a lap steel would be like to play.

My investment has not disappointed me! I am super impressed with the instrument. It's light weight, easy to set up and it sounds perfect for what I want, it's pickup gives off no more hum than any single coil would. It's sturdy and a pleasure to learn and play on.

I can only find two cons with the product, one was that the tuning can slip a little but with enough playing around with the set up I was delighted to have it holding it's tuning.

The second was that the tone bar that came with it wasn't the easiest to use and it's shape and weight just didn't suit me but upon a purchase of another one the instrument it's a pleasure to play.

Harley Benton Slider II

Bought this recently as I needed a Lap Steel with legs..!

This is my second one as I sold the first because, yep it didn't have legs..!

Nice sound, fairly robust but legs are a bit rickety so you have to be careful not to be too heavy handed when playing it.

Loud and stays in tune, which is a must.For the money it's kind of a bargain as it's pretty good overall. Nice solid finish & hardware is okay too.

Lap steel guitar excellent value

Very cost effective way to obtain a gig-able lap steel guitar. The guitar is well made for an entry level instrument. The pickup is adequate but can be easily upgraded if necessary. I would recommend to a friend.

Harley Benton Slider II Lap Steel

First of all it is a fine looking instrument and standing on his three legs has verry

professional appearance, looking closer you find verry cheap machine heads and

strings. When I changed first it was normal to restring it with 15" steel set and then octave adjustement- it was almost perfect. Doing this I was thinking about PU, maybe it is also poor one and I would have additional job later, but thanks God, when I coupled the Slider with my amp and use Duntop 928 tone bar I found out

the beautiful sparkling clean sound as it must be if you like David Gilmour in Dark Side of the...For little extra money I have verry fine slide guitar.
