Harley Benton guitars

[Henry the Hoover]

Hey folks!

I've been looking more and more into HB guitars and I must say there's some cracking looking guitars in their line up. The HB-35 plus in black with gold hardware looks fantastic, and I had a look at the Rickenbacher copies they have and I think they look great too.

What's people's experience with the HB brand? Curious to hear people's thoughts.

I did find out at the weekend if you buy a HB guitar from Thomann you can ask them to inspect the guitar before shipping and they'll do a full setup on it before sending it to you for around 50 quid which I thought was pretty good.

Any thoughts/experiences on HB guitars?

Thanks all! 🙂

I have a PRS copy Harley Benton (Harley Benton CST-24 Paradise Flame) and it's a beautiful looking guitar. The volume/tone buttons are a little loose and the tuners are not too bad. I have since switched to a Jackson, mostly because it's lighter (and well... better lol). So the HB a bit too heavy for my liking. But they are incredible value for money. I also have a HB bass guitar, it cost about 100 quid, and that one cannot be faulted at all.
