  • One thing I forgot to mention is when standing up, it does have neck dive. Not terrible but not a deal breaker. What's your experience with Harley Benton or Baritone guitars?

    Cool! Man I've never tried any Harley Benton stuff, but it seems great! Cool video!

    Great video dude!
    I've been eyeing up one of those for a couple of years now. I'd much rather move to a baritone than play this damn 7 string that makes my arm injury worse haha.
    Harley Benton are doing some amazingly affordable guitars nowadays with awesome specs, so fair play to them.
    You've definitely sold this one to me!
    Cheers 👍

      Great to hear! Bit of a gamble making a video like this, pretty sure people are just hear for plugins haha.

    Hey man accidently stumbled on your great video, i received my first Amarok 7 today. It came with no flaws, everything was spot on. With a 1st playtrough test i was blown away with the sound, luckily i survived so i could tell the tale haha. About the tone knob, it works the exact same way for me. The volume knob works wonders too, by driving it back the sound loses it volume slightly. I couldn"t put the guitar down playing it, and about those cleans man oooch. All in all a great guitar for the money, not dissapointed.

    great stuff! That's a very impressive set of specs for that price. the neck being bowed kinda sucks but at least it's a quickk fix. Setting a guitar up can sometimes be fun.
    cheers man

    Here we go, this is what I'm curious about. These are hard to find in the states unless you want to take a chance on lengthy shipping and customs fees. Can't find a used Amarok to save your life here, let alone a BT model. These beat the pants off the Chinese Jacksons like the JS22 seven string, which I bought and returned a week later. I[m still recovering from that ordeal. There's an old Yamaha BT (RGX-420S D6 "Drop 6") that is difficult to find and is similar in cost that has a great rep for quality, if you can find one. Man, I've been waiting for a rundown on this guitar for quite a while now, I'm glad you covered it with a healthy trial run to report on. What a beauty that is, and it certainly paid off for the price! 👑🎸🔥

    Seems like a great guitar and on your videos it sounds vicious and brutal! (you can really hear the longer scale length tightness in the sound) Have you noticed the new free Tonocracy amp sim thing? It can (should be able to) use the Nam captures too!

    any good info in HB stuff is gold, i cant get my hands on them so i would have to buy anything sight unseen.

  • @MilkoOfficialChannel

    Swaping the switch might even change the sound for good! I mean, many people wouldn't notice but I think you will.

    It's pretty rare that budget guitars are neckthrough. I sort of want to get one but I don't want to get one with sloppy fretwork.

    Hey man did you try out the VTarAmps "Invasion" amp sim?
    I got a sweet Carcass Heartwork tone with that amp and york audio ir-s.

    Harley Benton is not what it used to be 25 years ago. They have grown a lot with amazing quality for the price.

    3 years without changing the battery? Hhmm, interesting 🤔 So do you barely use this guitar for the battery to last you 3 whole years?

    • @resington
      @resington  Місяць тому

      I use it quite a lot. Still works great.

    • @ChakraOver9k

      @@resington Wow really? I'll take your word for it. I've just never had an active guitar that i use all time without the battery dying within 2 months or so. 3 years is nuts tbh

  • @charlesharper7292
    @charlesharper7292 3 місяці тому

    Three years on the battery. Are you sure the battery isn't done? It will play with a dead battery.

    • @resington

      Battery is still going man. Great output still.
