Harley Benton HB-10G

I use this HB 10 G Combo Amp mainly in my house and I am very pleased about it. Mostly I like the options available on it, the fact that it has a port for headphones but also a port for connecting an iPod or phone or an MP3 player.
The sound that comes from it is quite clean, it has some buzz but only at the highest gain level which not too many, I think, will use.
The HB 10 G Combo Amp is built really good and can take some ruff handling, in case it is somehow necessary. I traveled with it a lot and never had any issues even if unfortunately was bumped to surfaces sometimes.
The weight it's just 4.2 kg or 9.2 pounds and even though it seems to have a bit of weight, the weight is distributed in such a way that it is really easy to be handled by hand from one place to another.
Pros: The sound is so diverse using all the modes on the HB 10 G Combo Amp
The weight, being distributed nicely
The great variety of options available, to turn almost any sound you want on it (for a beginner)
The sturdiness being such a small, yet full of options Amp.
The Cons: Not enough options to change the sound and tone for a Pro guitar player.
Buzzing when the Amp Gain dial is turned at it's maximum level.
Overall I really like this Amp and I recommend it to any guitar beginner that I am sure will use this Amp, until will learn to play the guitar almost a t a Pro level.
I didn't try too much the MP3 function too much, but until now I have been really amazed of the possibility to use this function on such a cheap Amp and it all works great.

As a guitar player, I was looking for a compact and affordable amp that would allow me to practice at home without disturbing my family or neighbors. The Harley Benton HB-10G seemed like the perfect option - and I have to say, it exceeded my expectations.

Firstly, the 10 Watt power is more than enough for practicing at home or in a small rehearsal room. The sound quality is impressive, thanks to the custom-voiced speaker and TEC tube-emulating circuit. Whether I wanted a clean tone or some overdrive, the HB-10G delivered.

Speaking of overdrive, I really enjoyed the switchable overdrive channel. It allowed me to add some grit and distortion to my playing, which was perfect for rock and metal riffs. I also appreciated the 3-band EQ controls, which let me fine-tune my sound to my liking.

Another feature that I found useful was the headphone output. This meant that I could practice silently late at night without waking anyone up. The AUX input was also handy for playing along to backing tracks or songs from my phone.

The size and weight of the amp are perfect for portability, too. It's easy to carry around and doesn't take up much space in my home studio. Overall, I'm very happy with my purchase of the Harley Benton HB-10G. It's an affordable and versatile amp that's perfect for practicing at home or on the go. Highly recommended!

Last year I started playing guitar and bought a Fender starter kit. I was not very happy with my Fender products so last week I bought this amp. I am very happy with it. The sound is great for a beginner. Ofcourse it can be better but it's only 40€. There's many options for your guitar, like a lot of distortion or just the acoustic sound, and there' many options for something inbetween, so you can play whatever genre you want! What i really love is that it's very small: I've put it on my desk and it's extremely convienent for in my bedroom. It's great that you can put both your headphones in and music player.Great for practicing without bothering the family. The handling is very easy: I love the simplicity of this amp. And it can go very loud as well, if you'd want to! Love it.

I needed a small amplifiers to keep good relations with my neighbours and above all, practice in my apartment without risking to go through divorce with my wife.

This little amplifier has an excellent clean, which allow me to play all genres because it "digest" very well my Mooer GE-150 and therefore even in 10 watts, I don't lose any clarity and dynamics and I can practice with an acceptable volume without "playing in the box".

Anyway, the distortion channel is still acceptable for a decent overdrive. Of course, if you're looking for a Plexi, an Orange or a Silver Jubilee you will be disappointed. But if you have a good processor or a pedal board, the infinite quantity of clean of this amplifier is absolutely THE solution if you are looking for a cheap but consistent practice amplifier.

If you looking for clean sound, that's absolutely to take into consideration. Without my Mooer GE-150 I had good time playing some rockabilly and delta blues by placing the pick up selector of my Harley Benton ST-62CC fully at the bridge. And in two second, chicken picking blues was the thing to do.

If I'd buy again? Yes, indeed.
