Thank you brother ✌️✌️
Really refreshing seeing someone trying this guitar not for djent or metal but for other genres.
Soloing is wonderful as always.
Thank you brother✌🤓
Nice Choice Mr. Koh... and amazing playing as usual 👍👏
Thank you ✌️❤️
I’ve never really considered a baritone..... until now 😀. It’s beautiful, deep and rich toned. Just when I think I’m finished buying guitars 😂🙏🏼🙏🏼❤️
Lol... interesting instrument ✌️❤️
Stunning guitar playing and review as always Jonathan. Always when I get that bell notification that you uploaded a new video, I instantly get happy! Have a wonderful rest of the week :)
I’m glad!! Thank you... you too✌️
Every guitar sounds amazing in your hands
Thank you ✌️❤️
Please note that @7:24 I meant to say the neck is Maple not ebony
GO Mr.Koh fantastic as usual..hope you been well,And bless you sir..🙏 🙏
Lol.. thank you ✌️✌️
You reminds me of Tony Iomi. The legendary 3 fingers guitarist.
✌️❤️
Thank you.. Tony is a legend!!
That solo was an absolute beast!
Thank you ✌️❤️
Look at you rocking out!
How are you doing darling?✌️❤️
@@JonIsJustTooLoud doing good! No fire evacuations lately! I see you're doing well. Always good to watch your videos.
Ok that’s good to know.. stay safe sweetheart✌️❤️
2:40 delicious lick fratello!Thanks for testing this!Un abbraccio!
Grazie Millie!!✌️❤️
Hi Jon, you are not only a soulful musican, you are also a genious fretboard wizzard :-)
Thank you for your kind comments ✌️❤️
Im getting this model bcz winter is coming \m/ Great review, Jonathan.
Nice✌️❤️
@@JonIsJustTooLoud you should try it with ambient tones in the lower notes
Dang Johnny you melted my face off. Cool stuff.
Lol
Fantastic looking and sounding guitar, i have a Cort KX16 with EMG Retro active pickups which sound great.
Harley Benton make some superb guitars capable of taking on the big brands at more affordable prices.
Another one for my wishlist, Hope you are keeping safe and well Jonathan.
Thank you Allan!! Be safe✌️❤️
I like this tune Jonathan.Your using it in non metal tune...!!!! And !your NOT hammering the low b or a...love it
lol...Thank you Phil!
Impressive also the guitar is nice to great playing
Thank you ✌️✌️
Hi Jon a very nice and hot guitar i like it. LG Detlev
Cool ✌️❤️
That shoe sounds extra good!
Shoe???
Thanks for the video. Guitar looks & sounds great. Have always sat on the fence about a baritone & I think you’re right, would be fun to try out some ambient sounds with chorus.
My pleasure Nathan ✌️❤️
I own the same guitar. They are fun to jam on. Not to mention monster tones. Great video.
Thank you✌️❤️
I just knew that guitar would stir up your inner metalhead - I could see it bubbling just below the surface lol.
Lol... I guess it’s still not metal enough lol
Beautiful instrument love the set through neck and pickups but would've liked tremolo bar or Floyd rose. Great playing as ever Jon you're fantastic man. Blessings from Ayrshire Scotland.
Thank you brother ✌️❤️
I know you're not a PRS fanatic, but I would wholly recommend the PRS SE 277; it is a wonderful baritone and is a bit more elegant/classy looking 🤘 I love mine!
I’m glad you do ✌️❤️
Mine will be here tomorrow. I've never seen a baritone. Now I have to figure out what to do with it! Alternate tuning is something I have no experience with. I'll figure it out.
Enjoy!!
@@JonIsJustTooLoud got it today as planned. Mine is black/silver? Very dark. I can't find any flaws anywhere other than it shipped without the usual tools.
Not a problem. I haven't played it yet. I will sit down tonight and figure out tuning. The guitar is beautiful, and lighter than I expected.
My HB35 will have to wait...👍🏁
WOW...so glad I found this video. Never saw you with a baritone. That's a pretty guitar ! Love the finish. Curious how heavy it was ? I recently purchased a Squire Classic Vibe Custom Baritone..Great custom purple sparkle finish..still taking a while to get used to heavier strings. 0.14-0.68. Thing I like the most are the various drop tunings. Standard of course is BEADF#B. - AEADF#B. - AEADEA (DADGAD equivalent). - GDADEA. - ADGCEA
Glad you liked it✌♥
I Love It Thanks
My pleasure ✌️❤️
This is the first Harley Benton I have ever considered getting
Nice✌️❤️
You rock the Amarock mate, nice!!!!
I’ve only been playing 2 years (46) and never knew there was such a thing as a baritone guitar.
Firstly the guitar looks stunning, if I was buying just on looks I’d have an order for one right now!
I’m more a bluesy player so I’m wondering what I’d use this guitar for, the active pickups sound great and those heavy tones get right in your soul (I love the bass guitar for that reason).
Is this guitar just a metal guitar or could I get some nice tones for other genres?
Great video as ever, I love your channel 😁🎸
Thank you for your kind comments.. I’m sure you can play other genes with the baritone guitar✌️❤️
If Harley Benton guitars are as good as they look then big manufacturers better watch out
✌️❤️
The Harley Benton guitars made in Indonesia are really good instruments. Many US manufacturers have their mid-priced guitars manufactured in the same factory. But don't tell anyone. I just wished Thomann would make an alder version of the Fusion II. Perhaps call it Fusion III?
Yep.. alder would be nice ✌️❤️
great! awesome lead tone! would you reccomend this guitar ?I search a good baritone gtr
Yes “It’s A Great guitar✌️❤️
Would you say amrok guitar is just as good as a schecter hellraiser or red reign apocolypse?
almost as good as the Schecter...✌♥
@@JonIsJustTooLoud cool may look at buying one thanks 😁😁😁😁🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸
did you import HB directly from Thomann?
I wish they're available here in Indonesia, because they're made in Indonesia. paying the shipping and import fees for harley benton are just plain stupid for me.
I know.. it is ✌️❤️
Sharp looking axe. Bit on the modern side for me but still cool !
Thank you Malcolm ✌️❤️
👍
Is it me or the neck pu is too bright ? Is it active ?
I think they are pretty balanced✌️❤️
10:50 slipknot- vermilion??????
I wouldn’t know.. I don’t listen to them✌️❤️
Tunning for this guitar?
D
That fretboard looks dry! As was my HB fusion II was when it arrived.
Yes it does.. I didn’t even check the setup.. guess the strings needed to settle in more ✌️❤️
But...but...I thought this was a metal guitar??
lol... guitars are just..... guitars ✌️❤️
Gorgeous guitar.. The only thing I miss there is a Floyd Rose bridge.
🤓✌
