    Wonderful playing, Jonathan! One word that says everything about Harley Benton guitars... *value*!
    Here’s a *partial* poem "The Man with the Blue Guitar" by Wallace Stevens. I always liked his imagination.
    The man bent over his guitar,
    A shearsman of sorts. The day was green.
    They said, 'You have a blue guitar,
    You do not play things as they are.'
    The man replied, 'Things as they are
    Are changed upon the blue guitar.'

    Few days ago I ordered a Harley Benton HB Custom Line King-CE VS, for a friend. I was blown with the quality, and the sound, for such a price. Amazing Fishman pickup system, grover tuners, and nicely set up. Amazing guitar

    Thank you very much, Jonathan, for this interesting and sympathic review. ;)
    A friend of mine recently bought this guitar, I had the chance of checking it out yesterday night. I am a real bad guitar player, but a keyboarder for decades, so I know a bit about music.
    I was really impressed by the sound of this cheap instrument and the great overall looks no video can render correctly. I did not like the looks of the EQ part, cheap and plasticky, with an old-fashioned 9 V battery as the power source, I found the sound a little bit harsh, especially via pickup - but it's brand-new strings and probably not the best ones.
    Nit-picking aside, overall and given the real low price, this is a real great instrument. In fact it looked and sounded much better than I expected.

  • @DenisAhmet
    @DenisAhmet 5 років тому +1

    It certainly looks great, but the sound is lacking - it can be improved. You can't complain of the cost though, great value for someone just starting out or on a tight budget. I assume you did not change the strings? The cheaper HB's normally have their standard ones, a decent set would improve the sound, plus change the nut and bridge to bone and a decent set of tuners. That would cost about £40.00 roughly if you shop wisely, do the mods yourself and do research on what is good value avoiding the well know brands. If the guitar feels good it's worth the upgrades. It's OK to learn on if it's easy to play. You have really got to compare with a few to judge it better. Your playing though was exceptional, love seeing the motion of your right hand, intricate skills and use of dynamics. Well done Jonathan making this video for us.

    • @JonIsJustTooLoud

    I'm heavily split between getting this, or the HB Delta Blues MJCE. I thought I had finally decided on getting this model, but when you said about having issues with tuning & requiring help from someone else, that's kind of threw me off a bit again. I'm basically still a beginner, so if any adjustment work was needing done I fear I may mess things up if I attempt to do it myself, but I don't know any guitar players that could assist me either.

    • @bigpurm
      @bigpurm 4 роки тому +1

      I have the HB Delta blues and it also has a few issues, tuning stability is quite good but the fretwork and fretboard isn't great but for the price its still a very good guitar. I also have an epiphone Dreadnought, the quality is much higher but the HB is still my most used acoustic.
