in ST Style Guitars

Darker, heavier, and louder

With its classic ST shape, the Harley Benton ST-20HH Active SBK electric guitar cuts a striking figure in terms of look and sound thanks to its matt black finish and two active high-gain humbuckers, which promise an enjoyable playing experience with a louder, darker, and heavier sound. This guitar is stripped down to the most essential features, such as a single volume control knob rather than complex tone circuitry, and built from standard woods that include poplar for the body – a simplicity that is in stark contrast to the crushing sonic potential that it harbours. Players who want to add some variation to their sound can use the three-way switch to select between the neck and bridge pickup, or activate both pickups at once.

Rock-solid with a perfect shape

Its bolt-on maple neck with a matt black finish perfectly matches the overall appearance of the Harley Benton ST-20HH Active SBK, and its fingerboard, which is made from thermally treated maple, adds to the guitar's dramatic, dark looks - perfect for Metal. The hardware, which includes die-cast machine heads, is also designed entirely in black. The white dot inlays on the 22-fret fingerboard provide a strong contrast against their dark background and visual orientation for the player. The ST-20HH Active SBK comes with a dual-action truss rod that allows the guitar's neck to be precisely adjusted to a more concave or convex shape for optimum playability.

Fat riffs for newcomers

The Harley Benton ST-20HH Active SBK offers newcomers a great deal of style and sound at an extremely affordable price. Thanks to its standard dimensions, which are based on the classic ST-type design (a 648mm scale, a 305mm fingerboard radius, and a 42mm nut width) the ST-20HH Active SBK is the ideal solution for newcomers who are looking for an authentic practice instrument that allows them to seamlessly switch to an upgraded version later on. The fixed bridge ensures that riffs will sound fat and punchy while also preventing the strings from going out of tune too quickly, but this design means that the ST-20HH Active SBK is probably not the ideal choice for fans of whammy bars and dive bombs.

Metal, Thrash, and more

The Harley Benton ST-20HH Active SBK is perfectly configured for Hard Rock and Metal, and covers the full range of tones that players of these and similar genres need - from singing lead lines and powerful melodies through to chunky rhythm parts - thanks to its duo of high-gain humbuckers, which provide an incredibly high output and surprisingly strong attack dynamics for a guitar of this price category. The ST-20HH Active SBK is the ideal guitar for budding rhythm players with a passion for Metal in all its guises - from classic Metal and Thrash through to Black Metal. Its active pickups are powered by a 9V battery, which is located in an easily accessible compartment on the rear of the body. To ensure a long battery life, the cable should be unplugged from the Harley Benton ST-20HH Active SBK whenever it is not in use.
