Most people associate TE-style guitars with musical styles like Country, Blues, and Western. The Harley Benton TE-20HH, on the other hand, breaks away from this much-trodden path and combines a traditional design with modern features - a synergy that makes this affordable guitar perfect for Rock and Metal music. At the core of the TE-20HH's sound is a combination of solid woods and a pair of humbucking pickups, and the result is a powerful-sounding instrument that will handle clean tones well enough but whose real specialty lies in the field of high-gain sounds. What is more, the slim-taper maple neck ensures a comfortable playing feel, while the hardware - comprising a set of reliable DLX die-cast machine heads and a six-way DLX TE bridge - provides optimum tuning stability and accurate intonation in every register. In addition to the guitar, this bundle also includes an instrument cable and a padded gig bag with external accessory pockets and backpack straps.
The TE-20HH brings a fresh and imposing look to a traditional body shape thanks to its matt black finish and red tortoiseshell-look pickguard, into which the neck pickup is also directly set. The high-output bridge pickup in turn is housed in the bridge plate, and the two are governed by a simple control layout comprising a three-way selector switch and a single pot each for volume and tone, all housed on the typical TE-style control plate, which together with the rest of the guitar's hardware - bridge, control knobs, and of course machine heads - is finished in black. The neck with its comfortable modern C profile features a 22-fret roseacer fingerboard that completes the guitar's dusky vibe.
One glance at the TE-20HH's price tag makes it clear that this is a guitar aimed primarily at fans of heavier genres who are just starting out on the electric guitar and want to get their hands on a robust and well-built instrument despite only having a limited budget at their disposal. Besides its great value for money, players will also appreciate this guitar's playability and sonic flexibility, though as stated above it is most at home in high-gain territory, covering everything from precisely-picked riffs through to singing lead sounds. The build quality of this guitar is impressive - and not just for an instrument at this price point - meaning that players can look forward to having it at their side for many years to come.
Since 1998, the Harley Benton brand has been catering for the needs of numerous guitarists and bassists.

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.
As mentioned at the start, TE-style guitars are not historically noted for being common in Rock and Metal music, but the Harley Benton TE-20HH's combination of a basswood body, maple neck, and two powerful humbucking pickups makes it perfect for precisely those genres. Despite its extremely affordable price, this guitar leaves nothing to be desired in terms of sound or playability, and its matt black finish means it will cut a dashing figure everywhere from the living room to the stage. The guitar gig bag included in the bundle has sturdy backpack straps and allows the instrument to be stored and transported securely – whether you want to stow it among your other gear in the back of your car or maybe carry it on your bike. The accessory pockets also provide space for all manner of extra items, from tuition books through to tuners and spare strings. The only thing left is to combine it with the right amplifier (with enough gain on tap, of course) and the fun can begin.
