Same here. For that price, I couldn't pass it up. If I like the character of those pickups enough in person, I may end up getting rid of my EVH 5150 and pocketing the extra $450. Such an insane deal on these things.

@ryant3600 2 года назад

I own 5 and it seems every year they just keep getting better and better.. I do put upgraded pups and hardware on some of them. They're EMG line of guitars have been amazing for me. But let's be honest when you can get a really good playing guitar for under 200 bucks..insane.. but yeah the EMG retro active pups on the one's I got turned me onto EMG's. and roasted maple necks some w/ stainless steel frets and locking tuners. they're awesome. Happy to see you doing this w/ HB

@enthused7591 2 года назад

Ordered the T style the other day. Think this guitar finally puts us at a point where you don't have to spend $750+ to get a fully professional quality guitar. I think this one genuinely competes directly with $1,500 guitars in terms of hardware and we've never seen anything like that before. That's a $200 set of pickups on a $380 guitar. Absolutely wild. You're not getting a flamed roasted maple neck on any other brand for under $1,200.

@bucketofnoises7810 2 года назад

first thing first: awesome playing dude!! HB guitars were pretty "basic" to me in the beginning, but now they are amazingly good. Two aspects are beneficial for the customer: 1) normally the dealers have a 30% marge and because HB is a Thomann brand, the end customer does not pay it, and 2) they are QC at Thomann which does a better job in my opinion that the quality department of many other major guitar makers. A guy I know opened an HB superstrat-type guitar once and I was astonished to see that they even shielded the cavity, which for a 300€ guitar is quite unusual.

@weistonaski6924 2 года назад

Sounds strange, my 80 € guitar was already shielded when i bought it 15 years ago ...

@nunolance23 2 года назад

@@CameronCooper Hey Cameron. Thanks for the video! Quick question if I may: I have one of these with the HSS Roswell pickups, 2pt tremolo and shell pink body - although I like the guitar, I am still looking into the Charvel DK24 models - I feel like the Seymour Duncan pickups and Gotoh 510 would be a lot more reliable than the ones in these models, and the 12'' - 16'' compound neck radius would come closer to the RG style necks I am used to. However, the price difference is huge - you can literally buy 2 of these and still keep some change for the price of the Charvel.. What would you do in this case? Thanks in advance.

@CameronCooper 2 года назад

I own the Charvel DK24 2pts and they're awesome guitars! You might prefer to your Harley Benton given the higher spec'd hardware. However the Charvel will feel more like your HB than an RG. RGs are a lot thinner by comparison. Imagine the DK24 as an HB on steroids

@hayden2356 2 года назад

@Pantherjonvideos 2 года назад

Cameron, I bought this guitar after watching this video. I wasn’t crazy about the EMGs through my rig. Swapped them out for a set of Seymour Duncan Thrash Factors. Now it sounds great with my setup! The guitar is cheap enough to make it worth upgrading the pickups.

@therealjohndoe3862 2 года назад

I have to admit...I bought one which I received about a week ago. And, I am super impressed. Build quality is great, and the neck is insanely good and ultra playable. And it sounds insanely good. I have been an EMG user since the late 80s, and was very pleasantly surprised by the Hot 70s. Super dynamic, sparkling harmonics, and even the cleans are really warm and tweak able. I have and have had some rather nice guitars, but this was the best 400 bucks I have ever spent on guitar gear. I love it much more than I expected to, and fellow players who also own insane guitars were shocked at how playable it is.

@allyemeraart 2 года назад

we're at a point in time now where there information and resource is out there on how to build a good instrument. if a company can cut costs and still make a good product ie what harley benton does with direct distribution as opposed to retail, then there's nothing wrong with that. there IS something wrong with huge companies making massive profit purely on brand name alone though, and there IS something wrong with the recent attempt from these big companies to push down brands like Harley Benton with paid critics from bigger youtubers/ distributors with a platform (this has happened recently, a lot of corporate youtube channels owned by retail stores have essentially made slander videos on HB, and it's 100% because these stores don't make the money off harley benton guitars as opposed to other brands)

Since I heard about this brand I am more and more interested in it and I can't wait to receive the two guitars I ordered in the next few days A ST-20HH Active SBK and a ST-62 SB Vintage Series Thank you for talking about this brand which has one of the best quality price ratio that exists There's just one thing I don't understand, it's that when you look at the tests of Harley Benton's modeling amps, it doesn't look great and knowing the brand, I wonder why Instead I took a Fender mustang LT 25 which seemed to be of much better quality

@TheLinuxExperience 2 года назад

I just can't believe this... Whenever I have seen these guitars before, I always assumed a higher price and lower quality... I have now taken a bit more time to check them out and even if it is just to test one out, I have to get one. It is kinda scary that they can be that good at that price.
