Excellent guitar after a few tweaks
madis 27.12.2022
I really like the sound of the guitar (my first Harley Benton): the pickups are actually much more versatile than I expected. I love the neck, both the profile and the matte finish are really nice - it probably feels as good as the best guitars I've ever held in my hand. Finish overall is done very nicely and no issues can be found there.

There were some negative sides as well - it's impossible to properly intonate, even after flipping the saddle on the G string (which isn't really doable on the bridge the guitar comes with as the clip holding the saddle screw will deform once you remove and replace it). It seems like the bridge is positioned too close to the neck.

My guitar needed a fret leveling out of the box.

I'd also love if they'd compensate the Tune-O-Matic style bridge saddle slots to match the radius of the fingerboard, otherwise it's hard to get a low action without the two middle strings buzzing. It's an easy thing to fix though by cutting the slots in the saddles lower with nut files.

I wouldn't recommend it as the first guitar unless you are willing to take it to a decent luthier for a proper set up and fret work.

JA60CC is a true strummer
Cal B 02.05.2024
Versatile and good looking, this offset slams into the grunge sound on a budget. Two things: mine arrived with a cracked pickup and was an obvious demo model- there were scuffs on the base of the fretboard. Tone is fine and fits well into the mix. Good be alye, but my experience could have been better.

Juste incroyable...
Philounours 22.11.2022
Une copie Jazzmaster lake placid blue gaucher... vous ne rêvez pas, vous n'êtes pas en train de consulter le site du custom shop Fender... Merci à Harley benton/Thomann de proposer des guitares de ce type avec des coloris vintage pour nous les gauchers !!! J'ai eu beau la retourner dans tous les sens et l'inspecter de près, je n'ai trouvé aucun défaut de finition : une peinture pailletée magnifique, appliquée dans les règles de l'art probablement car sans l'effet peau d'orange qu'on voit sur certains modèles d'autres marques plus chères... Le manche hyper confortable, le dos caramélisé et satiné est un régal pour la paume de ma main droite ! Niveau son rien à dire, pas de souffle, un sélecteur 3 positions qui n'a pas de jeu et fonctionne nickel (bien vu l'orientation du switch qui à la fois évite que la main ne change par erreur de micros et facilite le repérage du micro sélectionné...). Ces micros sonnent clair, avec un bon niveau de sortie... J'ai dis à mes amis musiciens : quand j'ai vu ce modèle jazzmaster "vintage" à ce prix là, j'étais "obligé" de craquer !!! Et je n'ai aucun regret, c'est une guitare géniale et magnifique à la fois... Si Harley Benton continue de sortir de chouettes modèles en gaucher et surtout avec des coloris d'habitude réservés aux droitiers... alors je vais bientôt avoir des ennuis avec mon banquier !!! Allez... pour chipoter, j'ai retouché un peu l'intonation, mais c'est un réglage à faire sur toutes les guitares, quelle que soit la marque...
