Harley Benton ST-62 BK Vintage Series 3-stars Reviews

Harley Benton

Have played accoustic before purchasing this guitar. Looked very well but could not get the tone I was looking for. Have since bought an Es335 copy and think it is worth spending a bit more on a better model. Could be my style of playing also but again could not sound right.

Dissapointing build quality

despite the nice materials used, it is not built very well. The socket for the cable became loose after 1 day and the nut on the low e string broke after 35 days of use. Dissapointing. However the sound and feel of the guitar is good.

Good Guitar at the price point. Good feel to it

A solid purchase, considering the extremely low price

I bought this guitar simply because I wanted a "Tortoise-shell" pickguard and the price was so affordable. Out of the box the setup was decent but the frets were very rough with sharp edges and an uneven crowning, but if you know how to do fretwork it'll only take an hour of your time to get the neck up to a comfortable, smooth playing level. The pickups sound adequate and the supporting electronics had no issues at all.

For a guitar that costs almost nothing I feel no regret in buying it.
