Solid wood - solid sound

Harley Benton CLD-30SCM-CE SolidWood guitar with cutaway and pickup system, front view

If there is one phrase that is sure to get acoustic guitarists’ attention, then it has to be “all-solid” – after all, guitars made completely from solid wood are synonymous with a lively, characterful tone. The downside, however, is that such guitars usually come with an equally luxurious price tag as well. With the CLD-30SCM-CE SolidWood, however, Harley Benton is now proving that this doesn’t have to be the case. This dreadnought features a top made from solid Grade A American cedar, while its back and sides are made from solid Gabon mahogany, which is also called okoume. What is more, the CLD-30SCM-CE SolidWood also features a Fishman Sonicore/Presys-II pickup system complete with an integrated chromatic tuner, while a set of Grover machine heads as well as a GraphTech TUSQ nut and bridge saddle further enhance the guitar's already impressive range of features.

Equipped for full control

The dreadnought, which is one of the largest acoustic guitar shapes, has gained immense popularity for its sound, and Harley Benton has used this design as the template for the CLD-30SCM-CE SolidWood. The guitar's solid American cedar top features scalloped X-bracing and gives it a bright-sounding tone and a very direct attack, while the solid Gabon mahogany body provides a crisp and controlled response. This combination results in a very well balanced overall sound that is particularly suitable for strumming, though single-note picking and melodies will also shine with plenty of presence and sustain. What is more, the CLD-30SCM-CE SolidWood comes strung with a set of high-quality D'Addario strings, and its outstanding sound can be reproduced with complete authenticity through an amplifier or PA system thanks to the Fishman pickup system.

Sturdy build quality, outstanding sound

The Harley Benton CLD-30SCM-CE SolidWood is clearly an instrument for musicians of all levels who want to get the most out of every note they play. It is designed to cut through in the mix and provide excellent dynamics - particularly when amplified via the onboard pickup system. The guitar's okoume neck - complete with a 20-fret pau ferro fingerboard - is slightly wider than usual with a nut width of 44.5mm (1.75") and thus provides comfortable string spacing for more sophisticated playing techniques. And while the price may have been rolled back, no compromise has been made in terms of quality, so all fans of the classic dreadnought design should take a closer look at the CLD-30SCM-CE SolidWood.

The audience is listening

Thanks to its solid-wood construction, the Harley Benton CLD-30SCM-CE SolidWood will always provide plenty of volume, even in smaller setups without a microphone or amplifier, which makes it perfect for musical styles that require a full-sounding acoustic rhythm accompaniment, whether it's around the campfire or busking in the street.

And last but not least, the integrated chromatic tuner is perfect for making any necessary tuning adjustments in between songs.

die günstigste SolidWood
Anonymous 26.02.2015
Das ist die günstigste SolidWood-Gitarre die ich bisher gesehen habe.
Das an der Gitarre absolut kein Speerholz verarbeitet wurde war mir bei meiner Suche nach einer Zweit-Accustik-Gitarre wichtig. Also mit Chance auf Klangverbesserung durch häufiges Spielen und durch Alterung (genau das gibt es bei Sperrholz so nicht).
Die Gitarre ist für den Preis sehr gut verarbeitet. Sie ist nicht von zu dickem Lack oder Farbe "Zugekleistert", was sich klanglich ja auch auswirken soll.
Der etwas breitere Hals (45mm am Sattel) passt mir überraschend gut in meine eher nicht so große Hand und lässt mir mehr Platz beim Greifen für die Finger beim Fingerpicking.
Solche Sachen übe ich momentan nur noch mit dieser Gitarre weil sie sich dadurch einfach sehr komfortabel bespielen lässt. Die Gitarre ist für meine Verhältnisse super eingestellt, auch die Saitenlage ist Top.
Tonabnehmer mit Stimmgreät ist für mein Anwendungsbereich vollkommen ausreichend. Die Aufnahmen für meinen Dozenten vom Videofernunterricht (nma) sind absolut ok.

Die Einstellschraube für den Halsstab ist sehr tief im Hals und mit einem Imbus mit normaler Länge nicht erreichbar. zuerst dachte ich das ist ein Defect, deshalb ging sie erstmal zurück an Thomann. Aber dort stellte man fest das es bei allen Gitarren dieses Models so ist und ein Passender Schlüssel soll mitgeliefert werden. Die neu versandte ist genauso Top wie die erste, auch ein gutes Zeichen.
Ein schönes Stück Holz, Empfehlung von mir.

Positive Überraschung!
Christian2645 23.02.2015
Habe die HB CLD-30SCM-CE beim Stöbern entdeckt. Die Beschreibung sagt vollmassives Instrument. Da war ich gespannt und habe sie gleich bestellt.
Flotte Lieferung, wie gewohnt. Ausgepackt und gestaunt: Relativ leicht und absolut sauber verarbeitet und eingestellt! Kurz gestimmt, Mechaniken top, eingbauter Tuner reicht vollkommen aus, hoppla ist die Gitarre laut! Sehr direkter und reicher Klang, eher mitten- und höhenbetont, aber auch genügend Bässe, gutes Sustain. Picking sehr gute Auflösung und Lautstärke. Strumming bei Bedarf mächtig laut und druckvoll! Über Pickup die übliche, gute Fishman Qualität. Habe sie mit einer Tanglewood (TW) in der gleichen Preisklasse und einer 30 Jahre alten Takamine der gehobenen Preisklasse verglichen. Die HB stellt die TW weit in den Schatten. Die wesentlich teurere Takamine ist besser und ausgewogener. aber leiser, auch Zederndecke! Dann ab in einen Laden und weiter verglichen: Keine Gitarre unter 1000 Eur klingt deutlich besser! Fazit: Das Instrument ist zu diesem Preis der Hammer! Wem die direkte Klangcharakteristik gefällt macht damit einen guten Kauf! Das matte Finish mit dünnem Lack ist etwas druckempfindlich, also vorsichtig sein und viel Freude haben!

impecable
Anonymous 02.05.2015
Pues como digo, esta guitarra me llego impecable,por mas que la miro soy incapaz de encontrarle un solo fallo. El acabado perfecto , los trastes y diapason bien pulidos y nivelados ,la accion baja,el quintado lo clava, las clavijas mantienen la afinacion aguanta dias y dias y la toco todos los dias un par de horas , el mastil es muy comodo y suena de escanadalo el fissman no lo he probado ya que no la he enchufado ,No se si esta guitarra venia de alguna prueba o demo solo tuve que afinarla y hasta ahora .

A lo mejor me ha tocado la loteria, pero encontrar una guitarra de esta calidad es practicamente imposible a este precio cualquier guitarra de estas caracteristicas ronda los 1000 euros enhorabuena a harley benton por permitirnos tener instrumentos de cierta calidad a precios asequibles.
