A guitar for the heavy contingent

Harley Benton EX-76 Classic GHW AN electric guitar, front view

The EX-76 Classic GHW AN from Harley Benton immediately calls to mind one of the most distinctive electric guitars of all time and gives players on a budget a chance to get their hands on a piece of the legend. The Harley Benton brand has long enjoyed a reputation for delivering instruments with an outstanding price-performance ratio, and this guitar is no exception. The body and the set-in neck are both made from mahogany, a combination that together with the duo of Roswell LAF-AlNiCo-5 humbucking pickups will ensure a sound with plenty of warmth but enough "bite" to reliably cut through the mix and of course a solid helping of vintage character. Harley Benton has also not cut any corners in terms of hardware, and the EX-76 Classic thus features a WSC Tune-o-Matic bridge and a set of high-precision machine heads to ensure reliable tuning stability.

Punchy and powerful

The mahogany body of the Harley Benton EX-76 Classic GHW AN with its clear Antique Natural finish is immediately eyecatching and also provides the warm, sustain-rich basic sound that players have long come to expect from EX-style guitars. The mahogany neck features an amaranth fingerboard with 22 jumbo frets and has a slim-taper C profile for a comfortable playing feel. On the electronics side, the EX-76 Classic comes with a dedicated volume control for each pickup alongside a master tone control, and pickup selection takes place via a three-way toggle switch located conveniently on the guitar's lower cutaway. Alongside the high-quality bridge and machine heads mentioned above, tuning stability is enhanced still further by the guitar's Graph Tech nut, while its fixed-bridge design will help keep the guitar in tune even in the unlikely event of a string breakage.

Stay heavy

The Harley Benton EX-76 Classic GHW AN is certain to find particular favour among afficionados of heavier musical styles, especially since, unlike some similar models, it comes with branded hardware from the likes of Jin Ho, WSC, Roswell, and Graph Tech - at a price that even those just starting out on the guitar can afford. These features, together with the guitar's excellent build quality, also make it a suitable choice for more experienced Hard Rock and Metal guitarists looking for a reliable backup instrument. As a nice extra, the Harley Benton EX-76 Classic features a modern "belly cut" on the back, which promises significantly greater playing comfort than the original's slab-style body. This guitar will of course also capably handle other musical styles, but what it is really built for is to rock.

About Harley Benton

Since 1998, the Harley Benton brand has been catering for the needs of numerous guitarists and bassists. In addition to an extensive range of stringed instruments, Thomann's house brand also offers a wide choice of amplifiers, speakers, effect pedals, and other accessories. In total, the range includes over 1,500 products. Built by established names in the industry, all Harley Benton products combine quality and reliability at attractive and affordable prices. The continuous expansion of the range ensures that Harley Benton always provides new, exciting, and innovative products that keep players perfectly in tune with the musical world, day after day.

Deceptively versatile

As mentioned above, the Harley Benton EX-76 Classic GHW AN is completely at home in heavier musical styles and will deliver a full, biting sound from the bridge pickup, chunky rhythm sounds with both pickups activated, and singing lead sounds when the player flips to the neck pickup. However, clean and bluesy tones are also on tap, making this a guitar for numerous different genres. The two Roswell pickups are surprisingly transparent-sounding and provide plenty of headroom so that even high-gain sounds will not sound compressed and that the guitar will always cut through the mix properly in a band context, and their humbucking design eliminates almost all unwanted noise.
