Im still amazed on how well it does from smooth clean tones to extreme high gain. The roasted maple also looks sexy, i would recommend this instrument to anyone going for budget or not.
Yes! Man.... awesome guitar, and KILLER playing. Love your style. Subbed you- and looking forward to more of your music and guitars and gear. Rock on Bro! Good vid!
That's insane. 339???? Wow. My fusion T HH FNT was 400.00 3 years ago. It's every bit the best I have regardless of price. It was the first run. So much flame on the roasted neck it's crazy. Hahah. Same apmt as these you have. I just want a strat shape now so I listed trade locally. Hahah. Had some awesome offers but usually get too trade shy to lose it and refuse. Hahaha. Great review man. I need a DSLR so bad. Hahahah. I love your lighting too. Great playing.
Just found one for $350 + shipping, ships monday. Been looking at these for years and to buy one for at least 18 mo but no luck till now...I just snapped it up. The G.A.S. is real. $420 shipped with these features!...still a killer deal. And like most of you, I have a box of part to hotrod it with once I feel like tinkering.. Stoked.
Hey dude great playing! I may get one of these tomorrow in a trade...i have a collection of some decent guitars and im wandering if getting this would be redundant or even counterintuitive. I have a couple VERY nice warmoths...a ⅞ build(24¾scale/24 frets) and a 25.5 build, both with SS frets and very high end specs...also have a carvin dc400, a bc rich mockingbird legacy ST, and an ibanez AZ242f. I know these have the hype, but im really wandering if ill play it past the honeymoon faze.
Seriously looking at Harley Benton but never played one. How would you compare the specs and quality compared to say an Indonesian made Schecter or Ibanez?
I'd say they are about the same, however. HB has been known to have quality issues from time to time, more so then I've seen from Ibanez. BUT, if you get a good one, they are pretty freaking nice.
Allen key is not used, but rather, a round metal rod inserted in what looks like a collar. Simple to do and nothing is in the way. I enjoy playing mine - have not needed to adjust anything as yet. Off topic - I love the locking tuners.
Did they know you were ordering it as an influencer? I’m trying to figure out if they sent you an exceptional example or if they had no idea who you were
Nope. I purchased a Fusion 3 from them as well which was NOT anywhere near as refined. Still needs some fretwork... and was one of their most expensive guitars around $370
I have a fusion 3 HH with floyd rose and it was perfect straight out the box, I was expecting to do some work on it because of the cheap price but I genuinely can't fault the guitar in any way, hold up against any of my much more expensive guitars. Harley benton are killing it at the moment.
Man, that is a great question - both are good. I've played a few Sires, they are seriously underrated guitars. Think it would come down to personally preference at this point, but I will say build consistent build quality would be the determining factor.
@@Krisinized so which of the 2 has better consistent build quality?? Also, you did notice that I said s3, and not s7, right ? (similar price to the HB Fusion 3).
Because they have zero quality control and they need everything done to them to even be playable. Complete fret job and polish. New pots to replace the scratchy shit pots it comes with. New pickups to replace the dogshit ones it comes with. And to finish it all off a complete setup. That's if it even shows up in one piece shipping with UPS

Great review!!
Beautiful Guitar . I did hear a slight Fret buzz , once or twice . Just a tickle-up on the Saddles I reckon .
I have the twin to your guitar. It is a wonderful instrument and it is my #1 player way behind my Gretsch Semi Hollow Body.
I like the looks and sounds of that guitar, but sadly i don't like the PUs directly screwed into the body without frames, looks very odd to me...😢
second review ive seen & NOBODY has mentioned the roller string trees!!!
Love the guitar in the sound what kind of effects are you using ?
I use the AXE FX 3 - its a modeling amp, which is fantastic. Check it out if you haven't yet. www.fractalaudio.com/

some people complain about the Pickups. Do you thinik they suck. They sound good to me.

Go get the Guitar max sig guitar from HB $444

Are these sold at any stores in Milwaukee, WI where I can try one out?
GC sells them.
@@Krisinized : Thanks, I’ll have to try one out!
Is it me or is the neck Pickup in the way to adjust the Trust Rod with an allen key
Allen key is not used, but rather, a round metal rod inserted in what looks like a collar. Simple to do and nothing is in the way. I enjoy playing mine - have not needed to adjust anything as yet. Off topic - I love the locking tuners.
Can you get the strat out of phase sounds with this guitar?
not quite.
Any uneven frets?
not on mine, but I have seen a few that need a little work.

This or Sire s3....how compare??

Was this a paid review?

You got those positions backwards, bud.. Position 1 is bridge, and position 5 is neck.
yep, saw that Lol. Never went back to fix the edit :P

Some one had a bad week.... sorry bro.

@@Krisinized i mean it's tremolo is like on the Ibanez Gio?
Yes very similar
@@Krisinized oh so it's floating bridge
@@nags546oh no, the wilkinson is farout the best trem you can buy!
