Worth the price

Closest thing to a Kramer Ferrington KFS-2. Wasn't a fan of the bronze strings and replacing them with Ernie Ball 2252's did the trick. The pickup isn't anything special and works well should you want to add some chorus or distortion.

Everyone should have one

An absolute 'must have' guitar. Just what is needed for casual 'noodling' around the house, without needing to be too 'precious'. I have better electric and acoustic instruments which all live in cases but I leave the HB ST Acoustic lying around the house and can pick it up without faffing around with cases, amps, leads etc. yet the neck feels great and it plays like an electric. Really light too. Pre-amp may not be as good as the Fishman found in Fender's Stratacoustic but the finish of the neck and body is fantastic.. There's no tuner and tuning machines might not be the finest but hey... I can tune a guitar and the tuners work. As received, the setup left something to be desired and it was strung with heavy duty cables but after sorting out the action and changing the strings, it plays like a beaut.

A Little Gem...

I am no expert ,but I have many guitars to choose from and since I bought this little gem I continually reach out for it, it has become my first choice when practicing, I love its cute "smallness" and its almost shy sound ..perfect for not disturbing the whole house just because I love playing it...but plug it into an amp and its a different story...thankyou Harley Benton, My little guitar is amazing!

A MUST HAVE ..

I was looking at a more expensive USA brand then i saw this..great especially if you dont want to take a big acoustic on a gig for 1 song . Set up out of box was good and have used at a jam and for recording and tuning is very stable. Great action and the sound is good ,obviously not a full rich acoustic tone because of thin body and abs back and sides. Only 'Miss' is no onbord tuner. If you design a Telecastercoustic (and in Purple) ill def be ordering it.

So much better than I expected

I have 3 high end acoustic guitars, but I needed to preform on stage and I wanted a thinline acoustic for comfort and some flexibility. I am totally impressed with the quality of the guitar and love it way more than I thought I would. This guitar is a perfect stage guitar. It is easy to play and with the right preamp (I use the NUX Optima Air) it sounds amazing. The action was perfect for me (perhaps a little high for some). Great build build quality and solid craftsmanship. I did end up dressing the fret ends a little (but they weren't bad, and due to some extreme climate conditions, it was completely understandable). No major complaints. The only down side was the electronics/preamp. They work fine and sound decent. They just feel cheap and slide around too easily. I cut two pieces of cardboard and locked them in place and adjust the tone via my pedal preamp or amp, so it's no big deal to me. By the way, the tuners are good - no need to replace! It doesn't sound as good as a proper acoustic for recording, but for the stage it's awesome. I would by again in a heartbeat! Thanks Harley Benton!

pretty good!

Pretty good out of the box, even better after a little neck adjustments, and had to fix a few sharp frets. Used it on several concerts without any problems.
