Harley Benton - Custom Line CLG-48CE Wide NT -

[@robertbielak2057]

I bought this guitar four days ago thanks to this video and I really can't wait to play it. The guitar should arrive in two days. This will be my fourth Harley Benton guitar! Thanks Benedikt and thanks Thomann

[@junhalili9132]

I ordered one from Thomman and got it in almost two weeks, in perfect condition, I'm happy with the nut width which took me a lot of effort to find one and finally found it now.

[@vince8081]

I always thought the nut width on acoustic guitars were too thin for my fingers, i prefer the classical guitar fretboard dimensions. This guitar is made for me !

[@chrisgmurray3622]

I want one! I've liked what I've heard so far with the spruce walnut combination, and this is no exception.The cutaway , I feel, often helps cancel summing resonances in the larger acoustic guitar bodies,and the wider fret-board is perfect for string spacing in finger-picked passages.Greetings from New Zealand, thanks Benedict.

@@ReneRitchie... Hi, Chris G Murray responding to an answer to a two year old comment I left after watching a KZbin video from Benedict presenting for Harley Benton guitars. I don't have telegram, Facebook, Instagram or Tim tok but use a phone to watch KZbin. Please send more details of this "out of the blue" "selection". I need confirmation of origin before I'm able to claim this prise.

[@PeteAxeShields]

That's one lovely acoustic guitar Benedict. Very nicely constructed and an excellent tone, Very well demo'ed as usual x

[@HarleyBentonOfficial]

Thanks so much Peter, glad you enjoyed it :)

@@HarleyBentonOfficial Hello HB person. Have you not noticed that someone has hijacked your company name and logo? They left a message under my comment here saying I had won a guitar. I've reported them.

[@simonandthelyricalpoets]

I came here to see and hear the Guitar, but it was the finger-picking segment towards the end which left the biggest impression on me.

[@CSantosMusic]

Nice look and sounding guitar Benedikt! Well done!

[@ebookpioneers]

"The wider 48 mm nut gives beginners more room on the fretboard for expressive playing." That's got to be the worst advert line for a guitar I've ever read. ALL beginners want a THIN neck because they have it in their minds that a thin neck is a _fast_ neck (whatever that even means). It's the seasoned fingerpickers who want a neck wide at the nut. Chet Atkins, Jerry Reed, Phil Keaggy, Richard Thompson, Buster Jones, Lenny Breau on and on. When you're playing really intricate chords at breakneck speeds you need more room to play them. You should be marketing this guitar to fingerpickers. And please make it available without electronics so we can chose our own. An all solid wood version would be very welcome too.

[@ebookpioneers]

@@detroitfunk313 The thing is, they could really fill a much needed niche for fingerpickers. The only inexpensive guitars with wide nut widths are tiny parlor guitars, but most of us want at least a concert or auditorium sized body, and you just can't find one with a 1 7/8" nut width unless it's very expensive. Like, Taylor has several models you can order with that size neck for an extra $200, but you're already talking guitars that are close to $3000 to begin with. That's part of the reason so many fingerpickers have gone to nylon. They have wide enough necks for fingerpicking and they can be found affordably. But I think most of us prefer the sound of steel string for most songs. Sigh. . . .

[@silverderf]

Yes exactly, and actually most of the parlor guitars made today or targeted to electric guitar players I think and don't have a wide width. But Harley Benton actually make some of their parlors with a 45 mm not wet

[@arnieus866]

I bought a Taylor 815 with a 1-7/8" nut back in 1985. Best decision I ever made. I have been looking for a less expensive wide nut guitar because I don't take my Taylor just anywhere like on our sailboat. SeaGull made a Peppino acoustic but it is also to expensive. I will order one of these today.

[@arnieus866]

Got one last week and it is better than I hoped. It is not a Taylor but it looks very good and is a perfect practice guitar.

[@adolfoagudelo8462]

Sounds beatifull. Thanks Benedict!!

[@HarleyBentonOfficial]

Thanks so much :)

[@joeabstractjoe]

Thanks for also using a pick! 👌🎸👏👏

[@HarleyBentonOfficial]

No Problem :)

[@PooNinja]

Power outage ready. 🤘🏽it’s so grand!

[@jos7006]

Bought it to try out, looks awesome & sounds awesome, wish they made this one with a 44/45 mm neck. Returned it because the neck was just a little too much to hand-le

[@wildbillhackett]

I see it's sold out. Will you make anymore? Any chance you'll come out with a more pro version? I couldn't care less about laminated back / sides, but an okoume neck is bottom of the barrel. I've never seen one on steel string before.

[@wildbillhackett]

@@ReneRitchie... Yeah . . . right. . . .

[@bobertogonzalez2827]

very nice on the eyes and to the ears... added to wishlist lol 😁👍

[@HarleyBentonOfficial]

Yep :) 👍

[@fernanm.l.5411]

Sería una gran idea poner estos mastiles en las guitarras electricas

[@lotusmark2]

Is it a V neck or C please?

[@davidlacroix6769]

Followed the link on the guitar and it’s not available now - 3-4 month wait. You should demo guitars that you have for sale.

[@NicholasColdingDK]

Sorry - I bought the last two..

[@djr3000]

Does this guitar have a truss rod?

[@dragonclaw88]

nice...id have one...sounds good

[@jjvcjjvc]

got one coming next week :)

[@TheKleinstein2100]

Sounds really nice when being picked with the fingers. But I felt like I was missing some highs while you were strumming it. But overall a well sounding instrument!

[@Iwrote1Hit]

I often think the strumming sounds a bit thin in these videos, but with a firmer pick and flatpicking style the guitars sound much fuller... Not a criticism of Benedict, he just prefers a lighter touch....

[@davidbishop7341]

Do you offer any wide neck guitars with the cut away?

[@brankobida9229]

I like Martin headstock....

[@gregmeeks2753]

need a wide nut 12 string !

[@rafaelsanchez3499]

nice

[@LikeAGroove]

i'm still waiting for that cst-24 video

[@ryant3600]

there's quite a few of those on YT those have been around for years. I bought mine like 3-4 years ago.. great guitar

[@LikeAGroove]

@@ryant3600 how do u feel about it? Tremolo or fixed bridge?

[@ryant3600]

@@LikeAGroove I have the trem one and I love it. I use the bar on it often sometimes I get carried away w/ it cause i'm more of a floating trem player anyway and it stays in tune pretty good. I did put in different pups and locking tuners recently. What I love the most about it is the neck.. it really feels good very comfortable guitar to play. Looks good too

[@VitalyGG]

Picking song name?

[@VitalyGG]

@@ReneRitchie... I don't need your guitar. I already have Cld 30

[@dragonclaw88]

not one word on the electronics???

[@HarleyBentonOfficial]

They are equipped with the fishman flex Presys II!

[@AndrewAHayes]

I saw the scarf joint and all interest faded!

[@michaelsmyth5877]

Its an affordable guitar you absolute donut, plus I have 2 Taylor guitars that have scarf joints so you don't know what your even talking about, its a more robust joint due to the grain direction.

[@yetimatzenightcat8702]

Oh ja, ich mag sex seiten 🤩👍 Die gitarre klingt sehr schön nach walnuss, aber wenn ich so guck,.... macht die Fingeraua oder geht's ???

[@sassycat]

Made for picking, not for chording (at least for my hands). Nice sounds.

[@faustogamez9208]

After 70 days my guitar finally arrives. BROKEN 😡, so if you guys has some knowledge about what ethics means please contact me, i dont want a refound or a change cause dont want to wait for another 70 days, the only thing i want is you send me the parts to repair my guitar.

[@pdp977]

You will not get a response from Thomann here - you need to complain to them via the Thomann site. Do you think they just "know" where you are, what your guitar was etc from your comment on a demo of what is probably a completely different guitar? Go to the Thomann site and click on Customer Centre at the top left-hand side of the screen. It's pretty self-explanatory from there on. Then again, look at where we are...

[@faustogamez9208]

@@pdp977 your customer service sucks, dont sell guitars if you can not delivery on time and good conditions, the best publicity for any business are the clients and you are not give me a thing for free, I pay for it, so thank you for responding at least, I can repair the frikin guitar without your help, and also i dont care were you are, you sell harley benton guitars so i complain with you, if you dont like it, dont let people to coment, i was really exited about to get my third HB guitar, now im just disapointed.

[@ebookpioneers]

@@faustogamez9208 Why would you be talking about it on a product video? Surely you've contacted the manufacturer by phone, right?

[@HarleyBentonOfficial]

Hi, sorry for the inconvenience, please contact [e-mail] !

[@faustogamez9208]

@@ebookpioneers I like to speak with people, in good way and politely , so yes I try to contact thomman but the only response was something about the COVID situation at first time, then they said DHL has a container retention on Colombian custom service, I contact DHL they say not, your package never leave Germany so contact thomman. I know this is a demo channel, but as a channel people put their opinions about your products, and also I dont need an attitude answer like the first time when I was only asking for a little help, I was said I dont care where you are because you dont even got an idea of the almost epic journey that is for me to get a guitar right here where I'm living, you are on a city but I live on a forest area several hours ago from the city. I don't personally order the guitar was my sister but I got all the documentation, guide number and all the legal stuff to make everything honest and clear, finally I was just asking for the pots and tone and volume knobs, simple parts to replace, dont want refound or another guitar cause first don't wanna wait another 72 days, second even with parts broken and scratches I loved the guitar at first sight and the neck and fretboard are flawless even better that my sc 450 LD. So to finish this the guitar is now repaired, has Seymour Duncan's pickups, all new wiring, pots, knobs, pickguard and looks like a gothic les paul ☺🎸 and sounds even better. Thanks for your attention and have a nice day.
