Harley Benton TE-52 NA LH Vintage Series

Twang heaven

Everything a telecaster should be, it looks, feels and sounds amazing for the price. Only downside is its weight a tone… it’s like a coffee table around your neck 😉

Incredible value

I’m a beginner guitarist, so take my opinion with a grain of salt, but I upgraded from a sammick strat copy, and this thing really sings, great feeling neck, only issue is the weight, otherwise no regrets

probably the best Tele for under £600

I recently purchased the TE-52 Harley Benton guitar and I must say, I am thoroughly impressed. This guitar delivers the classic Telecaster sound that I was looking for. The twang and bite it produces, especially when paired with gain, is just what I was hoping for.

One thing I really appreciate about the TE-52 is its construction. The combination of maple and ash for the body is a classic choice for a Telecaster and it definitely adds to the overall aesthetic of the guitar. The build quality is exceptional, and the guitar arrived in perfect condition.

The only minor adjustment it needed was a string change and a setup, which is to be expected with any new guitar. Once I made those adjustments, the guitar played like a dream. The action was smooth and the intonation was spot-on.

Overall, I couldn’t be happier with the TE-52 Harley Benton guitar. It delivers the classic Telecaster sound that I was looking for and the build quality is impressive. With just a string change and a setup, this guitar is ready to rock. I would definitely give it 5 stars and highly recommend it to anyone in search of a great Telecaster-style guitar without breaking the bank.

its heavy and this might put some people off and side by side its the same weight as my Gibson Les Paul ( full weight )

Simply beautiful

This is an awesome guitar. I have 3 Harley Benton’s and with the others there are small build blemishes or finishes that I am happy to accept for the money. It has that T Clangy sound perfectly. this guitar is stunning and finished perfectly. I have guitars I spent €1k+ on that can’t compare. One thing I didn’t like is the kneck pickup is poor and the pots don’t quite give control across the range. But having said that it doesn’t take from this incredible T shape guitar

Great build quality

Nice guitar, but too heavy, just like the ones from Artist. 8 lbs or less would be nice.

How much???

This guitar came ready to rock and roll right out of the box. What a fabulous, quality instrument,easily keeps up with a much more expensive equivalent, and then some. An awesome guitar for less than the price of my latest pedal.. In fact my next guitar will be another Harley Benton. Blew the spots off my jap strat.

Staggering quality for the price.

Substantial guitar, neck feels fabulous.

Worth far more than asking price.

Queen bee

Hard hitting true tone rhythm guitar.

A Real Beauty

Never owning a Tele, I decided to find out what all the fuss is about. This is surely one of the most cost effective ways of doing so. It is a real looker with the natural wood and that neck! Change the name on the headstock and at a multiple of the price folk will still be happy. The pickups go from in your face twang to jangly with a slide of the selector. Sustains forever spinal tap style 😃. With small adjustments can get a nice action, neck radius is very nice. Feels very classy in your hand with the setup, weight and finish.

What may put people off, the weight is substantial but that is user dependent. The tuning could be more stable, will monitor as I break this one in - tuners have slightly different feel high to low. Thicker neck can make it slightly more difficult to thumb over an F chord - practice.

Super Tele - whether to buy another one 😁

Quality for price

Amazing guitar for such a low price . Amazing
