    Serious question, though. Who else thinks the Combat Shotgun is stupidly OP in Call of Duty: WWII?
    And you can grab the Harley Benton FanFret-7 2017 DLX from Thomann here: bit.ly/2FfPVrH

      I think the semi automatic aka the brecci 3.0 is worse because,well, it's a two shot kill and semi automatic.At least the combat shotgun still has a good bit of air between the shots

    I've had one aswell and the pickups are garbage indeed. But then again - what would you expect? Mine had a superb setup aswell, but tuning stability issues and to me, the neck profile was just too chunky and had nothing in common with a thin wizard Ibanez neck (at least my impression). Great review and pretty funny asking people's opinion who don't have a clue about guitars :D
    Also the pickups being soapbars doesn't give you much choice in replacing them, however their 2018 models have passive mount (normal) pickups which is a great improvement.

    • @agufish
      @agufish  6 років тому +5

      You would know better than me, this is definitely more your style guitar than mine lol. The neck seems pretty similar in chunk to the Jake Bowen I just got in, so that was my basis haha. As for pickups I think most of the actives come in soapbar form right? I hope so, they have to go!
      P.S. Your gear reviews rock!

    • @yaboirico5221
      @yaboirico5221 6 років тому

      I think Seymour Duncan makes some Soapbar shaped passive pickups, but what I've been wondering is if the lowest string sounds out right, like since it doesn't exactly look like if the hidden magnet poles are effective enough for the string? and the 2018 models have slanted passive mount pickups, so they might not actually be too easy to find....

    You are dissapointed you are gonna have to replace the pickups in a budget guitar.. ? Do you understand the contradiction and the fact that electronics are usually one of the low points in budget range guitars. The construction and features are fantastic for that price range so its not really a surprise that pickup and electronics would need an upgrade. You wont get £/$100-200 pickups in a $300 guitar dude. Come on, be reasonable.

    Great review! I was wondering, if when demonstrating pickups on a guitar, you could play all those great riffs, but in addition, hit a chord and hold it for a few seconds? That would give us an idea of the decay of the instrument (without a compressor, of course).

  • @s.davidbarretogonzalez4650
    @s.davidbarretogonzalez4650 6 років тому +1

    I have one of those and is my "go to" guitar (the only one I am playing actually) and it's a very great guitar for the price: it just has all the right specs for the money. I swapped the bridge pickup for a Seymour Duncan Blackout neck (yes, a neck pup in the bridge) and it sounds amazing now with tons of clarity and not too much output (I don't like pickups with lots of output). My only complain is ONE high fret: the 15th fret is a bit high but c'mon... for the price is just impossible to get a better 7 in Europe.

    just got a HB CST-24T in emerald flame, waited for about a month as it was the holidays, its just amazing that it sells for 229 usd, stays in tune, the set up out of the box is incredible, and the pickups are not that bad. i had thought that i would change them for some SD, but i don't need to, and it comes with push pull pots. next purchase will likely be a extended range.
    For the 2018 model they changed the pickups to fix what you pointed out in the video.

    Yeah I played a Jackson fanned 7 string at my local music store once. I tuned it down to drop A and I just messed around with it for a while. I couldn’t exactly do the shredy power chord thing that I like to do with normal 6 strings in something like drop D at first but I figured it out. I mean I mostly just play the first 6 strings and added the low A to make weird power chords. It was fun I might save up and pick up one of these Harley Bentons.

  • @ollimoore
    @ollimoore 6 років тому

    Hey Hunter, you mention a .009 string potentially being a problem at 27" scale length. I have heard (although cannot confirm) that strings of differing gauges actually break at similar pitches, a .011 string for example is gonna be stronger but also higher tension at a given pitch than a .009.
    I would recommend next time you have a long scale guitar around that you try a .0085 on the first string, it might be fluke but I have a 25.5" scale guitar tuned up to F# standard, and a couple of guitars at around 29" for the first string (standard tuning) and initially I put .009s on them, but those broke with relatively little use. I replaced them with .0085 and those are lasting just fine so I'm thinking that the .0085 is just a bit better on the tension/pitch/strength ratio

    I love Ibanez, and would love to at least try their new 8-string fan-fret, but seems like Harley Benton can do a very good job for just about $100 cheaper! I'd probably repaint the Ibanez, but the HB look really cool! Decision, decisions!

    Good on HB for using wilkinson pickups, surprised they didn't use them in more guitars, though I don't know if they make any soapbar 7 pickups. Maybe they could even use some entwistle in future models....that would have them giving double and triple price guitars a run for their money on all fronts instead of having a weak point in the pickups.

    We had a jam session last night and the guy playing guitar had a PRS he paid over $1000 for, I have several Harley Benton guitars and he liked them better than the PRS he had. In fact he played the prs clone Harley Benton almost all night and put his disappointed PRS back in its case. I just ordered this 7 string last see what's thought of it. My opinion Harley Benton guitars are rock solid and a killer guitar regardless of the low cost.

    Can you try the Legator fanned fret 7 string? I forget the model but try the cheapest one and rate it against this one

    hey Hunter, would you rather use a 6 strings with a digitech drop tune or a 7 strings guitar?

    • @agufish
      @agufish  6 років тому +1

      Digitech with a 6, definitely. They feel like different instruments to me, and I'm still more comfortable with a 6. The thick 7-string neck still feels a little unnatural.

    I've been thinking about remedying the weak pickup problem (which my 2018 model also has) by putting another ceramic magnet underneath the current magnet to possibly make it hotter, or finding some neodymium, any thoughts on possible results?

    He said headstock and I was like "Right on, Simon!"
    Now from an economical standpoint, is there any reason not to get the 8 string fanned fret over this one?

    • @agufish
      @agufish  6 років тому

      I'm not sure what you mean by economical standpoint.. like money-wise? More range for the money? Even the 7-string neck feels much wider than a 6-string (it almost feels like a different instrument to me) so I can only imagine an 8 lol.

    How do you afford all these guitars?

  • @johncrafton8319
    @johncrafton8319 6 років тому

    Yeah, I agree. Kind of. Mine wasn't as good as yours, unfortunately. It needed a lot of fretwork, the back of the headstock was rough and poorly sanded, and the nato stripes on the neck felt rough as well.
    I changed the pickups with some Lace blade-style pickups, sanded the neck and headstock, upgraded the electronics (new pots and caps), and redid the frets. Unfortunately, that meant that I spend as much on fixing the guitar as I did on the guitar itself.

    • @dainiusvysniauskas2049
      @dainiusvysniauskas2049 6 років тому

      Damn, tough luck. If there was really a need for big fretwork, you probably should have sent it back

    • @johncrafton8319
      @johncrafton8319 6 років тому

      Maybe, but it was too much of a hassle sending it overseas. Instead, I kept it as a project. The other Harley Benton I got at the time, a CST-24T, was in much better shape.

      Probably Fishman Abasi or Carpenter pickups. I'm curious how they compare to the Moderns. EMGs are always a good choice too!
