шикарная гитара за с&#1074

Rem666 26.10.2021

despite the fact that Russia, with Thomann order to become more and more expensive because of the decision to send the item only ups shipping
let's talk about the guitar
the guitar is made of very high quality
active pickups show itself is very good and clean channel and the Overdrive
good form but it has its drawbacks
horn causes inconvenience in the game at the lower frets
glued the neck behaves well
I can note one more minus
the port for jack is quickly loosened

I made a wise choice!

Anonymous 19.01.2017

I am amazed, to be honest; this is 150 euros and somehow a super dense, mahogany metal guitar with active pickups.
I can only speak for my own experience, but the guitar I received was practically perfect - low action, beautiful finish, just great to play straight from the box!
The guitar gods were smiling on me I guess, I am only using a Blackstar Fly 3 Mini amp, so I cannot really say how well the pickups perform at high volume, but that said, the Fly 3 can kick out a decent sound, and I had no noise issues from the active pickups (which have been reported by some tests last year - (check out on Youtube).
That is impressing me, no noise, clear sound, and a heavy sound on the fat strings. Again, its my perfect metal guitar for 150 euros... There has to be a catch, right?!
Bridge is really nice, nobs are smooth, toggle switch is decent and seems like it will last. No cheap nasty parts, Tuners are all good. I cant find a fault at all.
Its a fantastic guitar and for the price, jesus....
If you like heavy, solid, black, metal guitars, no reason on earth I couldn't recommend this.

I love mine!

Josh B 01.04.2022

I am so happy with this guitar! I would definitely recommend it to anyone interested. Cool shape, and active pickups at a more than reasonable price. Mine was flawless out of the box. I love the tone of the pickups, especially the neck. The guitar is all gloss black; there is just a glare in the pictures. If there was one in white with a Floyd rose, I'd pick it up no hesitation.

Dirty sounding and i LOVE IT

Wolfie23 29.04.2018

I use this for when im in the mood for a good old shred out in the garden to annoy the neighbours at 5am in the morning,

This thing is an absolute beast as i run it through a Line 6 Spider 2 150W On the Insane setting, it the Harmonics you can pull this off with are absolutely insane.

The only thing i can find wrong is the nut, as its plastic ill be replacing that with Tusk or Bone but other than that... I can find nothing wrong with this guitar, A nice thing is that it comes with a 9V Battery in the box so you can plug and shred straight away overall i'd happily recommend this to any aspiring heavy guitarist ^^

Studio quality

George87 02.02.2022

This Guitar packs a punch, the HBZ active pickup give it a smooth but punchy tone. This is now my go to guitar for tracking all my bands Riffs.
It doesn't matter if you are a beginner or a seasoned player. Grab yourself one of these guitars.

Decent guitar for the price

Branden666 30.01.2023

When I received and unboxed my guitar I was abit worried of what could be wrong with it. Overall it's pretty good for the money. Only thing would be the tuning machine heads are to close to the top edge of the headstock and paint on the downward point by neck feels abit rough. My first guitar with active pickups and I like the HBZ pickups so far. Would definitely order another one just wish they had the progressive line in white as well black is nice but white would be nice. Ordered on the 20th shipped on 23rd and was her on the 27th

Bang for your $$$

joweerocks 01.10.2019

Even though the big box was punctured deep in 3 areas the inside box was just fine. Guitar came in tune, intonated and clean as can be. Fretboard is a little dry, no biggie. No sharp fret ends and nice crowned frets. Didn't come with a 9v battery, again..who cares? It's my 4th Benton, with my 5th on the way. Love these guitars! Oh and the finish on all my Bentons have been just perfect. Even the 2 "B" stock models.

My second HB guitar and i love it

DThonian11 02.08.2020

I originally purchased this guitar as something cool to have around the living room and not have to worry about some stupid dings and all that on my main guitars I use. Well I discovered I really love the way this guitar feels in my hands, I have already decided that I'm going to do some upgrading and add this beauty to my rotation.
really the only cons I have found are the tuners aren't the best and the pick ups are really over the top hot if your pushing at band volume. the fretboard needed some love. a little bit of sanding off some really minor glue spot near a fret and it needed a good oiling.
new locking tuners, nut and a new single PU and she's a flyer.
I recommend this as a great buy for the money. If i didn't already have one I would.. well......
