I was ordering a Harley Benton sc550.. when a saw & heard a review from another you tuber, last night ..which totally convinced me this is the one I want .. I ordered today its winging its way to me .. However ur video just endorsed I made the right choice.. the sheer joy you both had playing the guitar..the fit and finish was amazing.. can't wait to receive it .. As a post note I rang Thomann to enquire if there was any likehood of fitting, in the future, emg pick ups in the HB35 plus .. because I'm ordering that guitar next week in lemon 🍋 .Great review very forthright .. 👍

It was terrific that the guitar was tested with different amps. That proved that is sounds great in different situations! I made a modest review of this Harley Benton and I agree 100% with Henning that you just need to buy it NOW, it is worth it! (if you need a les paul-ish type of guitar, of course) :)

I love your channel man :) you're as honest as it gets :) my only Harley Benton is an Emerald Quilt Burst Amarok 6 :) I've also been thinking of buying one of their basses. Their single cut guitars are amazing :) seriously considering the SC550+ as my next point of call :D wish they'd make a CST 24 + model :)

[@countblue]

I have an older model of it (SC-550) with Wilkinson Pickups, I think they were used before they used Roswell. They sound very smooth. They are actually three wire versions although the split coil/tap coil function has not been implemented by default. I am think of putting either switches or push-pull pots in to make them "switchable". However this guitar was a real bargain (I bought it used for 170 EUR) and I dont see me getting any other Les Paul. This one fits me perfectly.

[@chrisdaviesguitar]

I do like your blunt honesty.

[@themplar]

You can see Henning is impressed, he is way less chatty then normal and seems to enjoy playing it more then i ussually see on the channel (other then shabat/macmull). The guitar looks so freaking nice and sounds really good too. But i have a SC550 tabacco fade.... but but butt... i want this one too... Or better if Harley makes a few more modern with exciting colours. (flames and bursts) very nice review, it genuinely looks like you enjoy them. (conspiracy mode on: well thats because of the big bucks thomann pays him) (i cant believe some dumbasses would actually claim that....)

Well, I tried ordering the Kramer Aztec Nightswan and the Ibanez Rg 565 here in the states. Both are on back order for a few months or longer. I was going to wait for either to become available and I told myself those two are the only guitars I'm going to get this year and maybe near the end of the year the Kramer Tracii Guns Gunstar. But, I logged onto youtube this morning saw your video and I was I enjoy watching your video's they put me in a good mood, so I'm watching and of course I ordered a 550 plus. Says it should be here in a week. But, seriously man. A nice looking maple top single cut, w/ locking tuners and EMG's, built by Cort who know how to make decent guitars & shipped to me here in Alaska for under 450 bucks. WHAT!! I felt it was my economical responsibility to order one... Thanks Henning.. however if my wife finds out.. I'm blaming you!!! as I always do.. :) Great video, great sell. I used your link to order it as well. Can't wait to hook this up to my headrush...

I've just got a new guitar last week. It's also a HB (TE-52) and I am very happy with it. This one is tempting as I don't have a singlecut but do I need it? Not really. Do I want it though? That's another story but my wife would probably kill me if I bought another one so quickly!

This is the best HB SC 550+ review I have seen. I love your emotional and at the same time measured videos. As for the guitar HB SC 550+. They sound good. Better than the old SC 550. But inspired by the 2020 Gibson Epiphone, this is a more faithful replica of the LP. And they have more thorough packaging. I'll see if your channel has an Epiphone 2020 review. Then I'll make a choice. Good luck.

Now that they changed the SC-550 later this year they can do an SC-550 2018 Reissue and charge 3x as much for it because it has vintage 2018 features like non-active pickups and that wonderful 2018 SC-550 neck profile.

[@VesiustheBoneCruncher]

Definitely a notch up from my 550 deluxe - in several ways - good thing I love it or it would be in trouble ;-). At some point they’ll figure out I’d pay another hundred on top of the new price for stainless frets and a really nice nut. 150 if the bridge was better. At that point we’d be talking about a legit high end guitar through all the bits that really matter.

[@alburner2665]

Henning, thanks a lot! Great review, as always. When can we expect your review about the custom II EMG? I'm very curious about it. Actually I can't decide whether to order the 550+ or the custom II.

Nice guitar. Have a Harley Benton GT P90 that I love-cheapest guitar I’ve ever purchased. I put slash Seymour Duncans in my HB-35 and while it doesn’t play anywhere as nice as my Slash LP it barks at the amp more frighteningly. My only question is aren’t you a celebrity?

You are a no shit kind of guy and I can appreciate that, plus you are a really good guitarist. I absolutely love music especially classic blues and blue grass rock. I've seen the Grateful Dead over 100 times starting in 79 as well as a couple dozen other bands. The Stones, The Who Deep Purple and many more. I became disabled a couple years ago and I've been sitting on my ass very depressed. However about a month I snapped out of it and decided to do something about it so I started playing guitar and I freakin love it. I bought a Shecter C6 plus but I'm not very satisfied with it. So I think I'm going to try the 550 plus. Now I noticed there are two versions one is 550 plus pdf and the other is a ftp I think those are the letters after the word plus, what is the difference between the two.

I really hope Harley Benton will deliver more "plus", Indonesian-manufactured products. With Fusion II they proved they know how to do it. This SC550+ confirm it once again. Higher grade wood, better QC, all in the 400-500 euro range. A CST-24 plus (without active pups though) would be nice.

[@shooter4473]

If you live in the US returning a guitar to Thomann because you don't like it isn't a practical option. The cost is well over $200. The cost of the return may exceed the cost of the guitar or at the least be a loss of $200+. I have purchased multiple guitars from Thomann and received both good and bad guitars. The only returns that are free in the US are damaged or nonfunctional guitars. If you don't like the guitar it is on your dime. If it weren't for this issue I would probably purchase a few more but because of my negative experience I doubt that I ever will.

[@matereo]

Actually they all were made in cort owned/run factories. Easy to see because they all have the elipse (where gibsons have the diamond) that Cort has had on its guitars for a long time. The elipse in the HB sc models is a cort symbol

[@221b-l3t]

Awesome I just ordered this guitar because my absolute favourite guitar ever is my LTD Les Paul from that factory with Seymour Duncan PAFs. I got that as B stock 300 bucks off (display model with a scratch) and now I found this as B stock for 348 with name brand PAFs, which in the LTD are an absolute highlight, way better than my Epiphone PAFs. And only 50 bucks above budgwt, I was going to get the 550 II in DFB or BCF, which would have been 20 bucks less but no EMGs... you see I had to. There was simply no choice.

[@martinkrauser4029]

I wish they had used steel frets on all their higher value guitars. Refrets will easily cost you 200€ and are bound to be necessary within a few years if you play the guitar regularly.

[@ryant3600]

Thats why you get many guitars.. don't have to worry about the frets.. :) But my oldest guitar still in my collection that got played everyday for 7 years was a Chibson and the frets are still great. I have a 94 Fender Strat it doesn't get played every day but they still look and feel brand new. I think people give the cheaper frets a bad name cause they're not stainless. I mean if you're going to play aggressively everyday for hours I can see them wearing down. But I have never had that be an issue yet.

[@martinkrauser4029]

Man... I was going to get one of the new IIs with Teslas, agonising over which to get and then they had this as B stock for 348€. 20 bucks more than the BCF SC550 II with EMG PAFs.... I was going to mod it with better tuners and PAF style pickups, which would have easily raised it to 500 bucks, with the Irongear pickups I was looking at, and this actual EMGs... they must sell so many guitars that it's worth it for EMG to give them a great deal. With name brand PUs like that and better hardware it would have been 600 bucks, twice the original cost. And I have an LTD single cut from alledgedly that same factory in Indonesia and it is by far the best sounding and most beautifully built instrument I have (even against a high end Epi and a limited edition Gibson) at half the price of the LTD, which was heavily discounted B stock and 1/3 price of my heavily discounted Gibson (I'm happy to spend less and accept a few scratches, all my guitars suffer them sooner or later so may as well get them scratched up from the get go). I hope this one is good. Very excited. Also with the money I "saved" it's easier to justify getting a slightly cheaper one to ad P90s. Been working overtime and I will justify this as, occasionally treating myself to something (at great value like this) keeps me motivated to work harder. If it works and I maintain my current hours I'd be earning a lot more and in a way you could say this guitar is going to raise my standard of livibg substantially! Haha... so much so I can afford a mini Plexi :). I do understand it when some people react in shock to my 6 guitars, but they're all very unique and pretty at least I don't have 12 Strats. Them I might question myself. I do need a second Strat though... but an Affinity, let's stay fiscally responsible.

I find the impedance mess on guitars weird. Manufacturers should have agreed on a nominal impedance that every component in the signal chain is designed to. Often it is 50, 75, 100 or 120 Ohm. Could also be 1k. This would allow to design to a common standard, so that you know what to expect sound wise and make stuff better interoperable.

[@ces69]

I liked the original SC range that were much more authentic looking Les Pauls. The ones in recent years are a result of “caving” to Gibson! Regardless of what Henning says, the SC are bought mostly by people wanting a more affordable “Les Paul” alternative! I recently acquired 2 “Les Paul” type guitars which are more authentic looking, an “Artist LP59” by “Artist Guitars” which is very competitively priced with the Harley Benton models.And a Burny RLC85JP Jimmy Page Les Paul (a bit more expensive), both of which look stunning and play beautifully! Don’t get me wrong, I like HB guitars, I have 3 of them but they are all more authentic looking representations which I have upgraded! Personally, the only SC models I would buy are the “first generation” models (which are quite accurate Les Paul copies and sought after) which I was looking for when I came across the Artist LP59!

It felt and played better than the SC550 and despite noisier that P90 sound is awesome. The SC550 also had several flaws. Maybe I was just unlucky with that one I got.

Hi Henning, ich habe mir das Teil gerade über Deinen Link bestellt!! So ist Ostern vielleicht doch noch zu retten!

Ostern war zu retten!!!!! Ein echt gei.es Teil. Dein Video war in keinster Weise übertrieben - ganz im Gegenteil! Bleibt natürlich bei mir!! BTW, ist natürlich längst ausverkauft - und das mit Recht (oder heißt es zu Recht??) ;-)!
