The Harley Benton Amarok BT is a very good guitar. With the limited selection of baritone guitars it fits in an affordable price point that is obtainable for any enthusiast. While it may not be a guitar for everyone it might just be a guitar for you. Let me explain:

Most baritone guitars are much more expensive and don't give you the specs that this guitar does. From the stainless steel frets to the neck-thru construction, this has features many baritones don't. If you're looking to downtune beyond G#, this might not be for you. However, if you're just looking for a drop A or A standard tuning guitar this fits the bill perfectly. The intonation can get kind of wonky the lower you go. You can compensate it by using thicker strings but that also means you need to set the guitar up a little differently for ease of play. There are just physical limitations due to string tension that can't be resolved without a longer scale length.

The sound is more than adequate, it has a nice set of pickups. Most players who buy this will be using effects and the pickups won't matter too much. There is no need to replace the pickups unless you're looking for something particularly clean. Even then you can EQ most of what this guitar has to offer to fit the bill.

Out of the box the guitar did need some adjustments, but I've had one guitar out of the many I've bought that I felt didn't need adjustments. It's all preference as the action was playable right away. It just might not be to your liking. Luckily though everything is easily adjustable, even for a new guitarist.

Guitars come with some of these specs are generally much higher in price, a quick google search will allow you to compare. Not all guitars can be qualified through their specs. This one is no exception. It's a good guitar at a great price.

Awesome neck-thru baritone guitar
Lectrick 26.12.2023
The intonation could not quite be adjusted correctly out of the box due to bridge placement/screw length. It wasn't bad enough to require relocating the bridge, but I did have to buy longer screws for the string saddles.

Now that I've had this guitar for a while it shreds like Shrek on Crack. I love it. It's a wicked neck-thru axe with awesome growling screaming pickups that don't have the feedback issues that plague passive pickups.
