Harley Benton TE-62CC SFG 5-stars Reviews

Beautiful guitar for the price

Just a beginner guitar player but this is a beautiful looking and sounding guitar for the price.

Great Guitar Value for Money

TE62CC is a great guitar and outperforms its price tag. I lowered the action a bit but otherwise played great straight out of the box

Excellent quality

Absolutely no flaws. No fret sprout. I am amazed at how well this guitar is made.

Wow! Best one yet

I now am the proud owner of 4 Harley Bentons, an SC Special, a CST 24T Deluxe, a TE-52 Natural finish with 22 frets and now this amazing TE-62 SFG.

Each one had some minor set up requirements but the TE-62 was amazing straight out of the box, Slight tweak on the truss rod, lowered the action to required taste and that was it. Intonation spot on, frets are really nice, no sharp ends or high frets, tuners work really well and electronics all work as expected. Can't complain at all.

Also, I'm really pleased with the Surf Green it looks fantastic. HB really knocked it out of the park with this one.

Highly recommended, 5 stars all the way. *****

Fantastic for the price

Fantastic budget guitar.

I can't really fault this guitar apart from the finger board radius being a little flat for my preference. Paint colour and neck look fantastic. Perhaps could do with better tuners for performing. I adjusted the trussrod and the varnish around the plastic insert chipped a little, but other wise I can't fault this guitar for the price that it was

Love it

Bought this tele-a-like and a dakota red strat-a-like at the same time. This is a nice as the strat-a-like. Great to play straight out of the box, though improved a little by lowering the action. No faults, lovely fast matt neck

Brilliant guitar!

I absolutely LOVE this line of Harley Benton TE-62CC's. I now own one in Seafoam Green, Shell Pink, and Charcoal Frost.

Easily worth more than x3 the price.

I own a Squier Telecaster Classic Vibe 50's, and I prefer the neck, the pickups, and the weight of this Harley Benton.

I can't say enough good things about these guitars. You WON'T regret it!

It's absolutely awesome!

The guitar is a killer, sounds really good! Unluckily mine arrived with a non working pickup, but it will be changed with a working one!

Great staff

Really good quality for the money

The quality was greater than I expected for a EU 150 guitar. I have others guitar and I was looking for my first telecaster. I am really happy with this one. It really sounds 'twangy'. Again , HB did a great job.

Nice tele!

stunning color! no quality issues, but the setup could be a little better

Great telecaster for the money

I have several guitars, but at some point I wanted to try the Telecaster. The original Fender seemed too expensive to meet. Between the Squier and HB - I chose HB because of the new color.

What I got:

Pros:

- Excellent, comfortable neck with smooth frets. Frets do not stick out, do not scratch hands, matte varnish is very pleasant to play

- Beautiful colour. The guitar looks great

- Good sound that has the characteristic nuances of a telecaster

- large strap mounts

Minuses:

- Volume and tone knobs are screwed on unevenly

- There are scratches on a few frets near the end of the neck

- There are 2 small cracks in the varnish where the neck is attached to the body. They are no longer visible from a distance of 20 centimeters and they do not particularly spoil the view. At least for now.

As a result:

In my opinion, this is an excellent guitar for those who want to get acquainted with a telecaster for a reasonable price. Yes, she is not perfect, but let's be honest, for this money you can not notice them.

Great guitar out of the box!

You fully get that twangy, Tele'ish vibe when you play this thing! SFG color looks fantastic and the neck is way darker than standard maple neck on TE52. The hardware works good, pickups sounds as they should in telecaster. Guitar just feels way more expensive than it is. If you think of getting yourself a tele, TE62CC is an awesome option!

Great looking and playing modern style T

Overall 5 *. Some very minor visual flaws, but nothing to worry about. I'm no expert, have owned various HB guitars

Looks- colour matches the website, looks great. The slightly toasted neck looks great

Neck-feels really nice to play. Slimmer than the the TE-52

Fretwork is really good, no pokey or sharp frets. No scratchiness when bending, so the frets seem to be polished well.

Tone and volume knobs are a little stiff, hopefully will loosen with use.

Tuners work, they're not very precise but hold tune and do the job

Sounds- I have owned the TE-70 and TE-52, so the roswells sound the same. Better ears than mine may hear the difference because of the wood and weight vs the TE-52, but I don't have high end amps to notice the subtleties and I'm a hobby guitar player so, nothing majorly different in the sounds to the aforementioned models.

So, to review, a really nice playing and looking T guitar for very little money. Down the line I may replace bridge/saddles, tuners and put in some slightly better pickups (tonerider or similar), but I am absolutely happy with the guitar for the money, and for even slightly more money
