Well what can I say about this Harley Benton custom Line CLJ-412E 3SC.
Living in the UK this is a guitar I’ve had to buy blind and on reviews, so you can understand that I was unsure on the production and with it being my first 12 string guitar I want to get it right.
After going to PMT and trying out Martin, Faith, Gibson & Taylor 12 strings, so these were all very different prices.
So I decided on taking a punt on HB and having the 30 day money back guarantee I might as well give it a go.
However when delivering by DHL and the box was damaged my heart dropped thinking this is going to be broken, but the well package box by Thomann save the day.
Straight out of the box wow what a stunning guitar and the neck felt better that any I tried at PMT and some of those were over £4000 ( Gibson, Taylor)
I check over the guitar there no sharp frets, crack, dints or dings, tuner works fine to a bit tune tune up but that was me as never owned 12 string.
Might need few little tweaks for my own personal playing style but out of the box sound awesome with very playable neck.
My conclusion is for the money it’s an outstanding lump of wood, looks, feels sound brilliant and with a guarantee 30 day money back it’s a winner 👍🏻
Do your homework and research try some other brands and make you own Decision you won’t be disappointed
That my honest opinion
Hope this help and you can understand my review being dyslexic
Enjoy HB CLJ-412E 3SB
