All user reviews for the Harley Benton S-300

This is a guitar for metal cut
Fully maple body very fine, very light équibrée well, to move with no worries.
The table is maple shower, we perceive reflections through the varnish.
It has a set neck 22 frets, floyd rose a black and black oil bath mechanical.
HSH configuration.

UTILIZATION

The handle is nice, access to treble is very good.
The ergonomics are perfect, light, fine, balanced ...
It is quite easy to get what you want ..
Do not compare with high-end guitars but it really is not ridiculous.

SOUNDS

It is well suited to the style a little while, but his favorite is the metal.
The pickups are a good output level. It is designed for heavy distortion, but she can get away clean thanks to its micro simple, it does not snore too much, and it sounds pretty sweet. As against this, feeling very well the difference in output level over hambucker not.
The metal sound is typed, it can move from acute fatty pluto playing the tone, and may well play rock playing on the volume. It is very versatile I find

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 2 months, I love the ease of playing, can not stand the smell hardly at all.
The value for money is almost unbeatable, but he has readjusted to think, as often with harley benton.
I highly recommend!

- Made in China by Chinese over-exploited (probably)
- 22 frets / micro "harley benton" two doubles and a single in the middle ...
- Bridge licsence as Pink Floyd.
- 7 position selector / vloume / Tone
Round end flat very nice and very fast but could be even more if the resin blue paint does not freinerrai careful hand so the general displacement,,,

UTILIZATION

Access to acute and no little thanks to the handle-Aiser body are one! Design is very nice and, I hope this will not cause me too much trouble in the future and that the truss rod are well shod work ... If she weighs the weight I board a little sick to back after 2 hours of repeated but that will not make the planet farted ... I like enormously aerodynamic ergonomic design and color when the sound ...

SOUNDS

... This is a very cheap and gratoune these days and harley behringer make us see all the color for the unbeatable price-Calita. It has enormous potential if we know very well the rule (I deconseillerrai for a first guitar) The one so that could be very good with better pickups (at least one of the bridge for metals), however, not too ... evil but bavouze around large agreements ... shame ...

OVERALL OPINION

I ais past week and what I like most is that it is primarily grattoune are sober design are wonderfull floyd (I wanted to scratch a cheap one to make me floyd hand) I like least his drooling and numerous finish defects (nothing too worry you 2-3 mini-marks here and there) RAPORT Calita Heum price ... it's going to me as tax-free but otherwise it is a bit expensive (like all the other) so in fact it's going 8-)
I referrer this choice but watch I bought was my own risk for floyd to see what valai harley benton ... not have a scratch that lasts 1000 years

Oh the beautiful blue flash comes out very well ... I have since late 2005, I appreciate the exceptional comfort at all, perfect to play for hours without fatigue.
Access to acute care is extra but, in more than normal so it should be. Nothing to do with Start, Tele, rg.
Microphones, hiss when you push the amp, but at home enough to give good sound base. A change as soon as possible.
The floyd is a disaster (in general, but already more here) because it does not agree, and the set neck so badly not move result is always false. Solution block of wood is good for sustain and the neck does not move. Fixes is very comfortable, nothing to do with Start or Tele (those little screws that you puncture the palm ...).
The handle is very ibanez, wide flat end profile and D. Jumbo frets, plan to file those that stand out (2 on my guitar), but very well finished eighth nothing nor claw.

UTILIZATION

Once it is used royal good weight and form extra volume knob does not interfere. The stem of vibrato is a horror, remove it quickly.
The basic sound is warm and round, with good sustain vibrato blocked.

SOUNDS

I changed the pickups, so good as to say ...
... Except that the middle picker prevents me from properly so I removed.
Originally ca can be a good idea of ​​the different sounds of this type of scratching, but not rotten as soon as whistle is strong.

OVERALL OPINION

Good guitar, and captivating as discrete class, comfortable as hell, but it must block the tremolo. Good basis for good microphones, watch out the spacing of the studs on the purchase of the pickup (52mm for battery under the strings).
Vibrato for a small block of wood, remove the springs, floyd connect to ground and no more worries. Zero kopek!
The handle is difficult to resolve, at least trussrod works tiptop ...
For more 159euros a good bridge pickup is not never seen the picture is without competition.

Updated after 3 years of use: The violin (once blocked the floyd) is remarkable, nothing has changed. The varnish is tough, no chips. The lifts are good agreement (put the strings in reverse ball into the mechanics and it makes the mechanical locking ...) and look super sweet.
The set neck is a treat, it's gloss as in paul-sg is better than satin but hey it's personal ...
I experimented with several microphones, and the wood used does not erase n'acidifient the result. News I have a fender texmex in bridge and a seymour ssl1r in sleeve, nothing in the center, and the sound is fabulous. I tried to mount a similar fire on my rg321 and it did not work at all, the woods of ibanez puffed clarity and articulation of these single coils.
In short, this blue harley has not dated in 3 years, considering the price it was not obvious ...

In what country does she makes? Far too far ...
Bridge: Floyd espce a worthless and I quickly block with a block of wood.
The handle 22 frets is very pleasing, this is done quickly the paint back to CASC Aiges is no one more ais little as it is welded to the body and subsequently falls in nacre are very beautiful.
Micro: 2 doubles a simple, banal, lightweight versatility but it is enough for what I did, 2 volume knobs and pleasant tone, not too strong and ready microphones.


UTILIZATION

It is thin but not particulirement lgre provided I find (compare my and my pacifica JEM). The shape is very beautiful and pleasant it is played standing as sitting for long hours. I use it on AmpliTube and also with a line 6 Flextone III XL which is not extremely Faithful stringed instruments of the instrument. She is doing no evil, we must say that I use to train Plutt and not too user strings on my other gratounes more damage ^ ^, without leave to cts much! The overall sound is

SOUNDS

sincrement not extra, and I'm not going to change the micro m'embter on such a guitar. The bass and treble bavousent left the PCHE at large. However I noticed that we got a very good vintage sound jazzy and creamy, so interresting in Lger clean and crunch.

OVERALL OPINION

I had bought on by curiosity Thomann. I use it now for several years. I t's mostly for the beginners floyd rotten-poo and I knew then force appreciate its qualities as a guitar low-end. I however strongly deprecated for a beginner who ferrai better to move towards simpler and more models rputs!
