The guitar came in one piece. Only the toggle switch was affected. Otherwise, I did not find any chips or defects. The guitar is exactly like the photos. The heel smoothly connects the neck with the body, there is a recess in the abdomen. The frets are smooth, it was almost not necessary to tune the guitar. After the acoustics, it feels quite heavy. But it is quite comfortable to play sitting down. In my opinion, this is a wonderful musical instrument. I admit, I was going to make a smaller headless guitar out of it, but my hand does not rise.

My favorite purchase
DTCW 17.01.2022
Bought a couple guitars from HB with the intention of maybe selling them on Facebook if they turned out to be a let down. I have been pleasantly surprised but not more so than this specific guitar.

The other TE style guitars were safe bets as long as they were built well. However, to see an Explorer style guitar at this price range had me curious. Most other brands it's hard to get a guitar that looks like this for under $450, with Jackson's Kelly model being relatively similar for about $100 less than that.

This blew me away. The neck is perfectly rolled and the frets are filed down to be very comfortable, if maybe a little messy from tool marks. But that is where the negative feedback ends because at it's current price of $139 I didn't even expect anything remotely close to that.

HB has impressed me greatly with all 3 instruments and how they can offer a satisfactory experience for entry level prices. In the future I am looking forward to buying a more expensive model to see what their higher end work must be like.

Love it!

I love this guitar. I got it a month and a few weeks ago and it sounds very good. Everything came good and it was not damaged. I waited more than a month for it to be on stock but it was worth the wait.
In conclusion, this is the best purchase i have ever done.
Thank you thomann for everything!

Awesome quality for the lowest price!

Everything is said in the title : you get what you paid for, and it is more than enough for begginer to intermediate players.
Packaging is solid, guitar wasn't damaged during shipping and overall quality is nice : only a few dents on the fretboard, and the white coat isn't 100% fixed to the body. But other than that (which is not even noticed if you don't specificaly look for it) you get exactly what's shown in the pictures.
Bridge was a little too low, so the strings would touch the frets and emit unwanted noise. Luckily, the bridge's height can be easily adjusted with a screwdriver, so it's not an issue anymore.
Switch is responsive, tone and volume controls have a nice grip, pickups are just ok-tier (what did you expect?). Tuners are a little loose but nothing too bad.
If i had to change the gear, I'd go for tuners and pickups first, the rest is more than acceptable (and good looking!) to play.
Was a little worried about the quality of the strings, but I ended keeping the factory ones.

Overall, I'm really satisfied with this guitar. It probably won't last me a lifetime, but I can always change parts or one day decide to upgrade and get a higher budget guitar.
If you're a begginer or occasional player like me, this guitar is everything you need to do some quality rock or metal.

Perfect.
Vladimir Ponamarev 14.08.2021
I am very pleased with the guitar. Awesome tool for your money. After a few months of the game, I can tell you for sure that you can't find better for this money. The guitar does not make phonies and does not emit any extraneous noise. It keeps in tune well after the bands. I can immediately advise you to take the cover for the guitar right away, I didn’t take it now, I’m very sorry.
Thomann and Harley Benton, thank you very much for the instrument and the emotions you have given.

AMAZING GUITAR!
FlyersFan26 15.11.2022
It looks killer and plays great. I live in the U.S. I just needed to tune out of the box. My musician friends are all amazed by the price I paid for the guitar. The transaction was professional and quick! This is the 3rd Harley Benton in my collection. I plan to buy other models.

Awesome

My daughter talked me into this guitar and I'm glad she did. I have an sg400 pro that cost over £300 when I bought it. Playing the 2 of them you wouldn't be able to tell which one cost more. The only issue I had was a slightly dry fret board and the frets felt rough but other than that it was set up well, the action was exactly where I like it. I bought the Harley Benton extreme metal pedal too and they go well together. This isn't my 1st Harley Benton and won't be my last either.
