Harley Benton ST-20HSS SB Standard Series 5-stars Reviews

Great beginner guitar

I got this as my first electric guitar and boy oh boy is it great. It works great and is easily playable. If you are looking for a beginner guitar I would recommend this one.

Will make you smile!

Value for money! Great quality and sound. Will do the job done and more...

This is the best guitar for the money. There are some nuances regarding the build quality, but this does not affect the sound in any way.

A small unevenness on the neck.

Not completely polished.

The tremolo is not quite tight.

Best Guitar by a long way for the price

I have owned all the so called expensive best makes, and sold them all - I now only buy Harley Bentons (i now have 3)

Some need a set up then they are as good as Fender / Gibson / PRS / Epiphone etc,, Thats my view, i have been playing for more than 50 yrs.

Wery good guitar for beginner!

Super beginner guitar

A really fantastic beginner guitar, especially for the price.

Really great quality for the price

Nice finish great sound great value

great guitar

Fast delivery. good quality at a low price, the sound is bold on the humbucker, the singles are weak, but for this price it's just fine.

Basic but good

Well made great sounding guitar for the cost. Played straight from the packaging just a quick tune up required.

great mod guitar

Bought a Guitar fetish loaded pickguard and put that in it and it sounds awesome. The original was fine but I am learning how to upgrade and these guitars are great for this.

Great guitar for teaching a child. For this little money, a surprisingly very high quality guitar. Would recommend to all newbies.

An excellent guitar for both a beginner and an experienced guitarist, it sounds very decent. Nice build. An excellent strat for the money.

Great guitar for it's price !

The guitar is very good for such a cheap price ! 100% recommend for someone on a budget. Very modifiable guitars as well. Changing the pickups and tuners would make these guitars absolute beasts.

Great instrument and price

This is a very good electric guitar for a beginner.

The strings are close to the fret board and don't require tedious height readjustment (at least it was good enough for me). I did some simple tuning and it was all good.

The frets are all even in height, well finished and the width is good.

The instrument isn't "noisy" even when used in front of a PC (where it could be affected by RF signals and induction), but a higher quality shielded cable is very recommended.

The tremolo and the tonality switch along with the knobs are good to have.

I'd say it needs slightly better packaging as the guitar head's pointy end managed to crush plastic foam and almost got out of the box during shipping, but the guitar was shipped over long distance, so guess it's OK.

At that price is a no brainer!!!

Great guitar for your money!

Hello everyone I purchased this guitar as an addition to another one. I was startled. For such money, I got such a high-quality guitar! It's really made of wood not sawdust! On the neck of my guitar there is even a trace of a tree branch=) the Sound is very good. The frets do not protrude. The tremolo works well. The only moment-a little backlash string tensioner number 3. Otherwise, it is a great tool for your money! The color "3-Tone Sunburst" is just fire!!! I recommend to all beginners and playing musicians to buy!

A sound laboratory

To be true, it is my first electric instrument and I have only positive impressions about it. As I used to play acoustic guitar it was important for me to try as much as possible versatile instrument to understand if electric is mine, and I made the right decision when chose the Harley Benton ST-20HSS SB Standard Series. After several months, of course, I want some more and sometimes look for more advanced instrument, but then I take this guitar in my hands and understand that I didn't try this or this... It is amazing, and by this I remembered my teenages when I got my first classic guitar :)

To criticize I should only mention (1) some negligible cosmetic roughnesses (but they are almost invisible), (2) a bit angled neck (the fat E string sometimes goes out from neck on higher frets) and (3) some instability in the tone controls work in the neck-mid position (in the beginning sometimes they did nothing in this position, sometimes worked correctly, but today its ok, what was the reason I don't know). Netherless, all these critic comments are nothing at the background of overall price/quality relation.

Amazing

I have had a lot of fender Stratocaster through out the years. I still own 3 American made. This Harley Benton is as good as any of my three fender strats in my colección. Truly amazing guitar !

Nice quality, but bad sound

Doesn't sound like a strat, but worth the money

Pros: low-cost, good look

Cons: cheap hardware and pickups

Amazing guitar

I purchased this guitar for my son and he soon become obsessed. It sounds beautiful and the finish is perfect.
