Harley Benton TE-52NA LH Vint. Series Bundle

Classic looks, classic specifications, classic sound: The Harley Benton TE-52 NA is a typical T-style guitar for left-handed players, whose special feature is its price-performance ratio. With an American ash body and, since the model’s 2021 facelift, a roasted maple neck and fingerboard, this guitar matches the characteristics of far more expensive models. Other features include high-quality single-coil pickups from Roswell and vintage-style hardware that sounds as authentic as it looks. If there’s anything that doesn't quite fit about this model, then it's the low price. In addition to the guitar, this bundle also includes a padded gig bag with external accessory pockets and backpack straps.

Pricewise, this left-handed guitar is in a range aimed at beginners, but advanced left-handed players may also be tempted to get a hold of one if they are looking to add a solid T-style sound to their setup without having to invest too much. If you are more into Classic Rock music, Blues, or Country than Heavy Metal, you will find a more than suitable partner in this guitar. The Harley Benton TE-52 characteristically offers a very direct, bright, and crisp sound (great for these music genres), which is further enhanced by the wood combination and AlNiCo V pickups from Roswell. The bridge design and metal plate under the bridge pickup also ensure that the sound is not too thin.

Whether as a guitar for rehearsal spaces, as a backup or beginner's instrument, or simply for classic T-style sounds that you can't get with your existing guitar collection, the list of possible applications for a Harley Benton TE-52 is long. And the quality of this model is just as attractive as its price tag. A feature that is unusual at this price point is the use of roasted maple, which was introduced as part of the model’s 2021 facelift. It should therefore come as no surprise that this is one of the top-selling left-handed guitars. The classic design means it is also compatible with a large number of parts, including a wide variety of pickups, pickguards, and machine heads, making this a model with considerable potential for customisation. Yet even without any modifications, the TE-52 is still a powerful instrument. The guitar gig bag included in the bundle has sturdy backpack straps and allows the instrument to be stored and transported securely – whether you want to stow it among your other gear in the back of your car or maybe carry it on your bike. The accessory pockets also provide space for all manner of extra items, from tuition books through to tuners and spare strings.
