Harley Benton BM70

View time soon time soon purchased at 249roros should not ask the question.
This is a copy of the special red course.
Difference in size, the pitch here is like Gigi is 628mm and that's what motivated my purchase (the short scale mustang genre is not my thing).
Also, point zero fret and it's a shame but hey, as the nut is perfectly realized move.
Vibrato is a standard to Schaller or maousse sturdy and very comfortable. The springs are back as usual.
The neck is glued and reinforced behind the head that hosts mini grover siouplé.
The pickups are Trisonic burns! Controlled by an on-off slider and phase out of phase each, 6 buttons in total. The dark signal on a master-volume master tone.

The finish is top-flight, is superbly carried both aesthetically and in terms of frets, a beautiful object.

UTILIZATION

The handle is quite large, very comfortable, with everything going on.
The ergonomics are great too.
The ozégu access is perfect.

Now will have to get used to the wiring of the machine, it is not a foregone conclusion!

Here is how it works, each microphone on the signal path in series then. If the locks are obtained 18kohms 3, each micro 6,2k pulling. The middle one is reverse for a humbucking effect (in phase) with each of its neighbors.
The sliders are low phase inverters for each pickup, which changes the sound slightly (micro only) or completely sound (both pickups together).
If I torque acute and severe micro microphone, the sound is in phase but with parasites. Just then invert the phase of a microphone for the parasites disappear but the sound is very dug-spicy.
In short there is plenty to do!

SOUNDS

So rather complicated as use, but the sounds of the queen are in there! This is the royal saturations of course, and goes very well on my AC15C1 ... who would have thought ?!
For clean sounds it lacks slamming, but it is varied.
The ideal would be to have the serious micro parallel with the rest and not in series, I'm working.

So the sound is full, bold enough and pulls dark, perfect for a vox actually that complement perfectly.
I put 10 because it is unique.

OVERALL OPINION

The sounds of the queen are in there, that is both subtle and pan it. A small micro serious parallel option and it's Byzantium, I will update course.

In summary we have a beautiful very well done, rare and recognizable both guitar. No savings miserly also for the brand is the high-price range!
Even the vibrato works without any tune that want?

In short do not throw it over the top. Will have to wait for the color options before falling for a second BM70 ... not easy!
