Hey a little bit of branding snobbery perhaps? Just the way I heard it, being a "cheap" guitar player Комментарий от : @mototakahe836 |
Just compared directly to a Charvel DK24...sound is pretty similar, but I prefere much much more the cheap HB neck, stainless steel frets are incredible!!! It cost less than half and is better than the Charvel...with 200$ of pickups upgrade is still cheaper but I think it will sounds like USA Charvel or Ibanez.. Комментарий от : @luciacartocci2545 |
I think these sound better than the charvels tho Комментарий от : @mountainman8775 |
You haven’t done any Harley Benton’s in a long time Phil. What gives? Комментарий от : @thelolguy007 |
Living on a third world country, Harley Benton it's a no brainer, got mine for about $6300 Mexican pesos, brand new packed with a gig bag. Going for a Charvel would cost me about 20,000 pesos, for a second hand one. But still great to know the weaknesses of my guitar, hoping to get it better as soon as possible :) Thank you for your insight 🙏🏽 Комментарий от : @ricardorodriguez218 |
Does anyone know if the edge string benders can co exist with the wilkinson tremolo system Комментарий от : @jahblowme4364 |

:30 what? don't call me an ass! I heard you, you said $430, you ASS! why, I've never been so insulted in a YT video!!!! Oh wait.... you meant US. oh.... never mind. :) interesting, these guitars. Комментарий от : @TruthSurge |
Better then a Jackson price range wise Комментарий от : @jayschulz8060 |
The motherfuckers don't do any of the models with FR's of this series for leftyz, damn you Thomann! #Reekety Комментарий от : @Alfredo78666 |
Thanks man appreciate the honesty, I knew I subbed for a reason. Комментарий от : @like-icecream |
Maybe it's just the cheaper models, but so far every Harley Benton guitar I've come across has needed a fret level to be playable. I'm sure there's some nice guitars, but it seems like a bit of a coin flip. I have heard people rave about them so there's clearly some good with the bad. Комментарий от : @tommurrayGTR |
Best harley benton configuration!! The cheap wilkinson and locking tuners didn't work for my carvin and sure won't work with HB!! Floyd system is always superior.. Комментарий от : @vincebu6441 |
Great OD SRV sound with that split humbucker in both the neck and the bridge. That was surprising for me. Комментарий от : @johndollard4189 |
They’ve got Fusion lll’s out now in both HSH S body and an HH In a T body with Wilkinson 2 point trems and locking tuners.. Other than the Roswell pickups are weak, if you were to pull those humbuckers up instead of springs, I think you’ll find foam…. Комментарий от : @REBELSCL |
How can you remove that cheesy ultra shinny Poly from this Guitar? Комментарий от : @bluematrix5001 |
I have the later HB Fusion 2 Pro and it's absolutely fantastic. What's your problem with the frets? I just polished them, and they're like glass, just fantastic. I got super low action and it just works great. This guitar is a great instrument. Комментарий от : @syncro16se |
I have to say...I have owned my Fusion II HH FR now for well over a year and love it. I replaced the PUs with Suhr Thornbuckers (think I paid $225.00 US)and wow! Own and have owned lots of guitars and HB are great guitars. I didn't have any setup issues on mine and absolutely zero running issues. So, I (and probably anyone) would be hard pressed to find an equal guitar for $675.00. If you want a Suhr, you will still want one because of the name. But this guitar is great and will stay. Комментарий от : @dspguitarrebuild5281 |
cheap and nice! Комментарий от : @FL-yg2il |
Well I hope you don't have to return one. They just sent me 2 of the exact same guitar. I informed them right away and now there telling me I have to take it to the Customs office and show them the receipt and get authorization basically to ship it back and I have to pay for the return shipping fee. I paid 66 bucks for 2 day shipping and it took 5 days. This is my 3rd time ordering from them, needless to say never again. Also there website says you have 30 days to return an item but they told me I have 24 days. Комментарий от : @guitarsrcool4922 |
Honestly I had a Schecter sun valley super shredder III fr 7 . Out of the "box" no proper settings. Same problem with the floyd 1000 . Frets nickel not stainless steel, buzz even after set up . Not to mention fretboard was dry like sahara. We are talking about a £900 guitar . Also veneer on the top , so where is the quality for the price? 😎 Ps :volume pot after 1 years Home use!! got broken 👍 Комментарий от : @therockvolution9597 |
What replacement pickups would you suggest? Комментарий от : @knglerxst |
A nice mahogany veneer would look less blingy and a little more serious while still looking great. Комментарий от : @kas1755 |
7:40 clean tones Комментарий от : @SamuelJGleason |
The advice of Charvel being a better deal is not specifically true. For me in europe, the model with trem is 365€. Adding 2 SD pickups on it even if for 250€ more puts the guitar at 615€ish The charvel for me is 900€. Its a third less for around the same specs... Комментарий от : @pedrosilvamusician |
Just bought one, im thinking Seymour Duncans with coil split knobs and a killswitch in the Middle great review!🤟 Комментарий от : @wissewester1276 |
That's alot of money for a harley benton. That said I have a hb lp junior that I put a antiquity p90 in and I'm in love. That guitar plays amazing ,super nice fretwork from the factory and I'm all in less than 350$.. I'd imagine a gibson junior is pushing 2k now Комментарий от : @FastSloW-qt8xf |
I have one of these guitars and i love them. The Floyd is awesome and stays in tune Комментарий от : @bareldvandervlis9744 |
how is this guitar compared to a EVH Wolfgang WG Standard?? Комментарий от : @juanocybe |
I have a harley benton and it plays better than my hh USA Stratocaster. Комментарий от : @basiliskbro4078 |
Good review Комментарий от : @lacuerdaalaire2558 |
I always look at these Harley Benton videos I’m waiting to see a bad one . I think because HB is such a huge company they can afford to sell them much cheaper Комментарий от : @Alanoffer |
just realized you cannot test play on of these, no shop seems to stock em, i know where to buy them, thats easy, but testing it out before buying...... i would love to play afew of these fusions. a lot of other guitars are overpriced. these are honest prices. seems lke a good guitar too. Комментарий от : @idealmethod |
Just a cosmetic preference; brass/gold hardware looks better on wood look guitars in my humble opinion.. When you get into the upper stratosphere of price and quality it seems you are paying for not just quality but also durability. My Land Rover will probably last longer than my Hyundai Accent. Wait, I don't have a Land Rover...never mind. Комментарий от : @oatnoid |
The Floyd Rose on these guitars are rock solid. It does not have any tuning stability issues whatsoever, as you said - as a matter of fact, the guitar was in perfect tune when I got it. I did have to lower the action and tighten the truss rod with the included tools, though. An easy thing to do. Комментарий от : @bigredracingteam9642 |
You can throw a set of wilkinson, entwistle, GFS, Carvin, Mighty Mite, or what-have-you nice off-brand pickups for less than $100. I personally would probably put a pair of entwistle HVX in that guitar for ~$45, they seem to be in keeping with the vibe (med output voiced for rock/80's metal). Комментарий от : @brianburke808 |
Ps. Floyd Rose locked some of his patents for 50 years. Just sayin'. Harley Benton brings superb value for money, no matter what. Комментарий от : @peevee605 |
I love music man necks as you mentioned especially the Van Halen (or axis) one because of the profile bus expecially because of it’s narrower than classic electric. If you’ve tried it do you think it can be near that feel? Комментарий от : @sand69 |
I bought the one with the regular trem unit when they first came out. It has just set in its box ever since. The neck is so thin that it isn't stable and just feels awful to me. Roasted Maple is a total waste when there is so little of it. Thomann accepts returns, but you have to pay the shipping, which is prohibitive in cost for an individual in the USA. Комментарий от : @voxelraster |
INMHO I don't think you can honestly judge a pickup without adjusting its height and the polepieces ... on the other hand, I think you should have cut the treble on the amp a bit so it wouldn't sound so shrill ... the sound is in the ears and in the hands… Sorry but I think you have not been so fair in this analysis… good video anyway… Комментарий от : @DanieldeBlas |
floyd rose 1000 is 300£ gbp brand new and stainless steel frets only the frets will cost your around 300£ if you were to get it done . Комментарий от : @akaalgaming9537 |
I have one HSH and LOVE IT! I changed the pickups, and added strap locks, that's it. I'm not buying one more $1000 + guitars again, maybe a little guitar snobbery here Phillip. Damaged guitars are usually damaged in shipping. Комментарий от : @Watzline |
I‘ve got this guitar. It often stays in tune for weeks at a time, no Floyd Rose problems Комментарий от : @mountainman8775 |
Hi whats the blue strat with walnut neck top right of screen buddy Комментарий от : @ashleyf1817 |
You said you're not going to scrutinise but I think you just did😂😂😂😂😂. HB just showed the world guitar can be sold way cheaper that what we used to pay. Комментарий от : @rockingstar3534 |
you can do better buying parts and sticking them together... the bridge is junk the pickups are junk.... nobody puts a toggle switch in to split pickups!! either you put in a push pull switch or better have a 5 way switch that splits the pickups. getting a lutheir to setup the guitar would cost 100+ and not everyone knows how to install and wire pickups (again a lutheir job) buy a charvel, get warmoth parts or buy a kit from solo or something and build it yourself Комментарий от : @skydogstudio |

So is this the Fusion "II" or "Pro"? Комментарий от : @Yanthungbemo |
he Phil did you end up keeping this or selling it or sending it back? Комментарий от : @robbievalentine8239 |
Hey Phil, you definitely have to check the new HB Dullahan headless .... But the one with a flat top witch looks like Kiesel Osiris... Комментарий от : @dan14legolas |
Here's the thing, why wouldn't you scrutinize it just the same as a $3k guitar? There is quite literally no difference. In fact I watched a blind side by side of a Harley Benton Deluxe Tele and an American Fender version, roughly what $2k now? We're talking truly blind, you did not see the guitars only heard the tones. I picked the HB Tele sounds above and beyond the Fender. I was shocked! We know for a fact wood adds only a tonal characteristic to the sound, it does not define it. On electrics, it's the sum of the whole. So if my woods are the same, the feel is the same, the sound is better? Why in the hell as a player would I spend $3k+ on an electric when I can spend an Nth of that for the same and if not better quality than a Fender top end, well beyond Gibson capabilities, on par with PRS? I love ya Phil but this one...would've rather just heard the guitar or a truly blind comparison between it and a similar Ibanez or Schecter. Комментарий от : @Canabai |
Recommending $900 Charvels is not a fair comparison at all. Plus Charvel doesn't have steel frets, AND uses the same Floyd 1000. Floyd's are not my thing anyway, as I am one of the hapless victims of the Speedloader debacle. Floyd will never get another cent from me, he's a shyster and should be run out of business for leaving thousands of people high and dry. Комментарий от : @supernoobsmith5718 |
Roswell Alnico V Humbuckers are shite. Комментарий от : @peppik |
I recently bought one of these and cant stop playing it,came straight out the box ready to play no set up required,the floyd does not go out of tune despite its constant use. i love it to bits.... Комментарий от : @kramersurfer5280 |
nice video! Do you think that this guitar is better on quality than a yamaha pac 611 or jem jr? thank you! Комментарий от : @JBEJSting |
Pretty nice for the price!👍👍😎 Комментарий от : @mikenaykki2173 |
yes i have two harley benton fusion hh guitars . great guitars but it's like suhr modern pro series not like charvel or ibanez. Комментарий от : @piotrkochanek2178 |
I love the stainless steel frets but I am concerns about them being leveled right for this price, normal frets I can fix them myself but steel is another story, anyone out there can tell their quality? Thanks. Комментарий от : @edigabrieli7864 |
I've wanted a fusion for a while. Those necks and the frets with split coils. Комментарий от : @robertclarkguitar |
These guys built a HOT CHEETOS GUITAR out of a Harley Benton 🥵🤯🎸 youtu.be/8PxxXAz50DI Комментарий от : @rodthebod1890 |
Phillip, seems to me the pickups sound fine, roasted maple, stainless steel frets, decent trem, really good finish alone, could not touch anything like that, in that price range, I mean come on, I don't care if its made on Mars. I bought a HB CST 24T, for $207 dollars. I love it. I will never pay $$$$ again for a guitar. Selling s few guitars, and I know I will not get half what I paid for them Gibson, Gretsch, Fender, Epiphone etc. The HHS pickups, can allow for a lot of styles, without changing guitars at gigs. And if I wanted to change out the pickups, would still be ahead of a 'Name Guitar' Thanks, Комментарий от : @Watzline |
These "low-end" guitar critics, smh. If this guitar had fender on the headstock and sold for $2500.00 it would get far more respect, but no Harley Benton has to go and sell them for $450.00 and force these "critics" to nitpick them to no end. Some of the best music ever recorded was played on guitars that were no better than this one. Комментарий от : @jzznup8664 |
What kills me is when anyone does reviews on a guitar with a trem and doesn't test the trem. If you have experience with a specific trem fine but the guitar it's in and how well it's anchored etc makes a big difference. Let's face it anyone thinking of buying this guitar would be specifically for the FR. Otherwise they would just buy a fixed bridge guitar. All we got a review of the trem is how loose the arm is not how well it functions or the stability. Комментарий от : @axegrindin |
Well after looking at thoman, I can afford one of these. Way better than the 300$ hondos i could only afford back in the early 80's. Комментарий от : @hadleymanmusic |
I want to order a Harley benton but I feel like it won't arrive or something will go wrong ? I'm in California had anyone ordered one and never got it? Okhad any problems? .. Комментарий от : @EnvyOw |
Is this the next sharpen my axe? Комментарий от : @morgangatto1001 |
I'm not sure I follow your logic completely. I can't find a Charvel or Music Man with these specs (roasted flame maple neck, stainless steel frets, floyd rose 1000) anywhere near this price range, even including the cost of a pickup upgrade. If anyone has more specific examples of what he might be talking about with the guitars this could be competing with, can you give me a link? Комментарий от : @theharvardyard2356 |
It sounds really good ! Комментарий от : @HermelThePolyglot |
Do you recommend Harley Benton guitars I'm considering getting the 52 reissue of the Telecaster I believe it's like $120... and replacing the Wilkinson pickups with the fender Tex-Mex pickups Комментарий от : @RCSkunkWorX |
How does it stack up against a pre se? Комментарий от : @biggkahuna3867 |
I'm taking a very hard look at the Wilkinson model of this. The neck specs look really close to my contemporary Strat which I love. Комментарий от : @BenjaminRoethig |
I think pickups sounds surprisingly good in my fusion - no need to upgrade for sure. Комментарий от : @x430c5 |

Love your honest reviews. But your math is a little suspect. 400 + 250 does not equal 900. Rounding up by 200 dollars when comparing a 2000 to 2200 but at this price point I think its a little un fair. Комментарий от : @gregorymurphey2115 |
I have the Sterling JP150 and you'll need to upgrade those pickups as well, so factor that into your cost/benefit analysis when comparing the HB. (I will say that I LOVE everything else about that guitar...except the pickup selector placement) Also, since the Floyd equipped Fusion is going to give you tuning issues, I would suggest going with the Wilkinson equipped version which is $366 USD (at the time of this post). Then slap in some quality used Seymore Duncans or DiMarzios and you're set to jet. Комментарий от : @daniellowrie2289 |
I think when you're under, say, eighteen, a higher budget might mean months or even a year waiting. At that age that's a long time in which a lot happens and you may easily lose precious time practicing and playing. Playabilty is paramount, you can catch up with quality later, and by then your fingers will have learned to judge that better. Комментарий от : @fritsvanzanten3573 |
I don't have an OFR or a 1000, but how bad it could it be? The base plate is hardened steel. Provided the knife edges aren't totally messed up in profile it should stay in tune just fine. I mean the Ibanez Edge works just fine (I have like 4 of them) and those are just cast steel with the exception of the knife-edges (which are hardened steel). They totally work fine. I feel like there is no reason this 1000 unit shouldn't function adequately. Комментарий от : @Zerimas |
Whoa! Phil can you talk more about the Floyd Rose license expiring? I haven't heard that. I'm sure that caused some shockwaves for builders/manufacturers. Комментарий от : @BigHairyGuitars |
Great review bro! I really wan't to say thanks for the honest review of the Harley Benton guitars. All I ever see in other reviews of them is that there the greatest thing since sliced bread! Lol, I always wondered how they made any money since there so nice... But after watching your honest review, it makes sense... Cheap electronics and hardware. I like the sound of the neck pickup when split... Man I've been subbed to you for a few years now and I gotta say Phil, Your playing has got alot better in a short amount of time! Rock on bro!! 🎸🎸👍 Комментарий от : @MikeCindyWhite |
That color scheme is so 1970's furniture. Goes great with the avocado guitar hanging on the wall behind you Комментарий от : @johnnybravoski7048 |
I see guitars like these as modding platforms. Yes, they are fine out of the box (as in with a basic setup) but down the road they are pretty easy to upgrade by simply changing out the trem and pickups. Having said that, this is pretty much the upper end of the price bracket that I would consider for this and would more likely start with a more basic model. The things that make it seem worthwhile to me in this case are then neck and the body woods. Комментарий от : @jameslewis2635 |

Great review, and another reason to avoid low priced Floyd Rose guitars. Thankfully it is available with a standard trem. As you have said by the time you have upgraded all the cheap parts , you are getting close to better options. Комментарий от : @Barbarapape |
I love the stainless frets. Great video as always brother :-) Комментарий от : @Chinaguitarsceptic |
Thanks for the honest review. Not having played those instruments, I 'm sure that those superstrat style Harley Bentons are great instruments, not only for younger players starting there journey with music, but for the more experienced ones as well (I wish I had something like that at this price point when I first picked up the electric over 20 years ago). But Phil is right, if you consider doing upgrades, then overall you get to Charvel, LTD and Schecter money. Especially those Pro-Mods from Charvel are fantastic instruments! I 've played an HH DK24 recently which I 'm considering over a Solar A2.6 (tried that one too, both are great guitars). Комментарий от : @grinder2401 |
i don't think, that the pups sounded bad. At least for this price spot. I've seen similar roswell pickups new for bout 40 bucks the whole set - definitely nice. Комментарий от : @xRegularJohnx |
