Harley Benton ST-62DLX OW Vintage Series 5-stars Reviews

Blows other brands similarly priced models out of the water

This guitar was pretty great right out of the box. For my first HB guitar, I am very pleased. The finish combined with the gold hardware is also a beautiful look that really sets this model apart. Action feels good and the electronics sound great.

Beginner fit!

I am a beginner in the world of electric guitar playing. I got to have couple of guitars, but this one grew to be my favourite. For me, the neck is smooth, with a handy length. Also, the guitar body fits well and feels much comfortable. I used couple of pedals, played it with a simple amp or even with no amp when practicing late - I like how melodic it sounds. It comes with a tremolo that I haven't explore yet, but awaiting too. Subjectively I think this guitar is well built and from decent materials.

Harley Benton ST-62DLX OW Vintage Series

this guitar beautiful workmanship The first time I ordered, I think it's a great value I like it very much

Cool guitar better than Squiers in the same price

The biggest plus for me in this guitar is radius, which makes bending easier than Fender's line. It is a perfect budget stratocaster.

Beautiful...just beautiful 😍

The fact that it feels & sounds great pales in comparison to the amount of compliments I get on how beautiful this guitar is.

Excellent value and quality

I would recommend this guitar in a heartbeat to anyone looking for good value and quality. It's a complete no-brainer for a beginner, but even for an accomplished guitarist it's a great piece of kit. It arrived on time, well-packaged and took only a few minutes to set up, with decent strings. It would probably benefit from having a more detailed set-up, but that depends honestly on how much you'll notice the difference. For a beginner it will work fine out the box. Highly recommended.

Something for which it is not a pity to pay $$$ 😍

when I first unpacked this instrument, my emotions were like I was holding my newborn son in my arms, you know.. it's hard to describe in words.

But after you start playing your music, at that moment you realize that you can do much more with this instrument.

do not waste time, take it in your hands and start making rock music that will become a legend in 20 years !!🎸🎸🎸

Fantastic

Absolutely the best HB I've bought, everything is outstanding at this price point, nothing I don't like. Well done Harley Benton.

Awesome Guitar!!!! Love the Color!!! Love the Sound its sounds just like my Strats

I purchased because of the reviews and it's cheaper than the guitars i made myself I'm telling you don't just purchase because of the low price buy it for the quality i really don't know how they do it i've purchase three of them on sounds like a Gibson one like a strat and one sounds like a PRS

Never give up your dreams!

To be honest, at the beginning it seemed quite skeptical to me. Considering the price, I expected many flaws, low quality finish and boxy sound, but I was so wrong!

Let's start with CONS:

- two screws on pickguard are twisted crooked

- string trees seem shabby

- tuners are flimsy

- tremolo looks cheap (works properly though)

PROS:

- looks fantastic

- sounds great, a little bit brighter than ordinary vintage pickups on a Strat

- for me neck feels more comfortable than V-shaped neck on my old guitar

- perfect finish, no even a small scratch

FINALLY

I'm so happy to own this guitar! Definitely can recommend it for those, who are seeking a cheap Strat!

Now it's my work truck

One word is a very good guitar. The purest sound and obedience, the design is very cool. She is 200 times more beautiful than in the photo. I didn't think I'd like stratocaster. The neck is wide, so you have to retrain for this guitar. But it's worth it.

Impressed

I purchased this guitar because I am a new player and wanted a strat type guitar. The guitar surpassed my expectations. I would recomment this guitar unequivocably. I cannot see anyone going wrong using the price point/value as a guiding factor.

Worth every penny and more

The all 5 star is on the price of this guitar, and what you're getting for the amount it costs, you could not give it any less than five stars for everything. There are a few minor issues like the gold looks cheap close up but back up a little bit and it looks absolutely gorgeous, the main issue I have with this is the tremolo block is a much smaller block than in the photo of this guitar, apart from that at this price point you can not expect more, and the best thing about this guitar is the playability, and this is the most important thing for any guitar, it doesn't matter how much you spend on a guitar if the playability is bad you're not going to enjoy playing it as much, or you'll be struggling with it, possibly fighting with it at times, and that's exactly what you don't want when your learning to play.

Harley Benton has not just made a copy of an Stratocaster they've also put their own stamp on it like the radius and the neck shape, so bear that in mind that it has a few of its own original views on the ST.

Well done Harley Benton for not just copying but putting your own spin on a classic with playability that I'm just going to enjoy for the rest of my days because this guitars going nowhere.

Uitstekende gitaar

Enkele weken in gebruik nu, fantastische gitaar voor dat geld, de kleur lijkt meer op vanille-yoghurt, dus lichter dan op de afbeelding. De hals voelt solide aan en hij ontstemt nauwelijks! Ben er super blij mee!

Solid guitar for the price!

If you're looking for a cheap Stratocaster-like guitar that can get the job done (either for learning, practicing or even jamming with your friends) then look no more. Harley Benton's ST-62 comes to life in its Deluxe version. Really solid instrument and it sounds great. It has all the controls and features of a normal Stratocaster but for a fraction of the price. The build quality is outstanding for the price as well. Obviously there's some minor issues with the tuners and the bridge but overall it's pretty solid.

Great piece of a gear for a very affordable price (and looks beautiful as well).
