Hey Cory, why dont you make videos anymore?

[@PippPriss]

Cory works either in Health care or in senior residency care. Not sure which one. So he is probably loaded totally up with the current pandemic

[@stevehanham9266]

Nice one Cory. Good to see you back! 😁

[@steveroberts]

Glad you're back Cory

[@rajsmells0215]

my friend why arent u uploading anymore? :( stay safe

[@Katira-KR7]

So many years since you posted something ;-)

[@CoryMura]

0.3 years to be specific :D

[@tudoot]

Really what happened dude?

[@AllanGildea]

There he is! Good to see and hear you again Cory! Happy 2020!

[@stainlesssteve25]

Good review, the tv yellow/ mustard version is a very good guitar too...i was amazed by the quality of finish and sound for such an incredibly low price. Harley Benton are making lovely stuff. Its a good time to be a guitarist...but we all have to still practice practice and practice some more ✌

[@edgardbrulh6187]

Did anyone knows why Cory doesn’t post anymore ?

[@CoryMura]

i am back, check the new videos

[@riffdigger2133]

Mine just arrived, Dec 2020. Great all around. The vintage burst has a slight green tint, with faint green lines in the yellow, not as classic and solid color as yours. Definitely noticeable but acceptable.

[@MrKnucles]

Why did you stop? We need you! Come back! Tell me more about de 7sb! Iam buying one on December

[@sergio76]

Good to see you back MR. Mura.

[@davidwake5453]

hey cory everyone on u tube is asking where you are. hope you and the family are well. miss your vids.

[@manoskf]

Dear Sir, Looking Forward to see a detailed review of the Dullahan HB with the maple fretboard...

[@littlewoodenboy1971]

You got me - I’m sold on it. Much appreciated.

[@steveshears890]

So good to see you back Cory , was worried great vid ijust got H B double cut smokin right out the box my favorite is the sc450p90gt classic. These are great hard workin gigin guitars

[@shawndouglass2939]

Bought that p-90 gold top a few weeks ago, just waiting for it to arrive 🤩

[@valleywoodstudio7345]

I’ve just got the DC Junior. Apart from a small adjustment of the G string and lowering the nut (subjective) I totally concur with this review. A shim on the pickup made it beefier and moving the capacitor to 50s wiring made the controls more interactive for me (again that’s a personal preference). Just something to consider!

[@grayfool]

Good to see you Cory. Been a while. Very cool guitar too. Hope to see more from you soon.

[@stu-j]

Welcome back dude hopefully you have a good 2020! I dig this guitar and I also like the new hb headstock shape it's much better that before

[@bjornwolf6653]

Geil endlich wieder ein neues Video, ein schönes Rockbrett. Schön das es auf deinem Kanal weiter geht. 😎

[@adrian_V99]

Greetings Cory, I've tried the 2020 Gibson and the 2020 Epiphone and this is no worse. Can you review an SC-500 one day? they seem to be out of production, in particular alpine white.

[@malcolmhardwick4258]

Hey he's back !!

[@fender1000100]

Great video Cory. You presented it really well. And showed the full scope of the guitars potential. Thankyou.

[@robmontier639]

A review that tells us what we want to know. No mountain of pedals!

[@PooNinja]

P90 players pick! Simple elegant functional and affordable AF🤘🏽

[@stephaniea5156]

These are great but you need to swap the bridge out for a Musiclilly one and use a pickup shim on the pickup.

[@Doug5524]

Cory, thinking of you in this trying times hope you are keeping well

[@dainiusvysniauskas2049]

I wish EMG made their active pickups in dogear format, perfect fit for this guitar. Yes, I want to watch the world burn.

[@bedroomjamrecords4962]

thx for the vid cory, great job as always 👍 how about the string action, ive heard that the bridge cant be lowered enough to get a proper low action?

[@CoryMura]

the height of the bridge can be adjusted. i could go lower on mine but its already low. bad setup(especially neck relief) or a wrong angled neck pocket could lead to the issue you mention.

[@klv400]

Awesome demo. And great playing..

[@Doug5524]

Thank for the demo sounds good information for you Did you know that Epiphone is changing their headstock to the Gibson shape!

[@lorenzob249]

Thanks for specifying the weight! I love that

[@stephenwhiting6475]

I got the black with tortoise pick guard. Love it

[@SkepticGamer]

Addicted to HB's.

[@captncrunch1726]

yeah, new video! good to see that gear head back.

[@Doug5524]

Cory, Just a line to see if you are OK As I know what you do for a living I wish you well from Suffolk UK

[@tolvajakos]

missing your videos mate. hope you are staying safe and healthy.

[@zaverino]

Hello my bro Cory! I hope you and your loved ones are allright! I just wanted to say that I miss your videos. Keep on rockin and hopefully see you Soon

[@mannysgamingadventures2686]

So - I bought a Harley Benton SC 450Plus VB Vintage Series Les Paul which arrived with damage to the neck veneer on both sides of the nut. After painfully trying to speak to someone I finally received an email asking for photographs of the damage. After sending 31 pictures of the packaging (near flawless) of both boxes and the damage this is what I received from Thomann ... “Hello, Thank you for sending us the pictures. Unfortunately, from the pictures you have provided we can see that the order was damaged during transport. We would like to claim this with the transport company, and in order to do so we would kindly ask you for your help. Please go to the local Post office and ask them to sign the attached, prefilled damage report named "11211150_CN24.docx". Should the post deny to sign the CN24 document, please let them sign and stamp the document named "Post doc ENG.pdf". Also, please write a short damage report yourself using the document named "damage report ENG.pdf". Please write the address of the Post office as well as the day and the hour of your visit using the document named "Post refused to sign.pdf". We will also need a declaration signed by yourself. You can find it on the second page of the document named "Post doc ENG.pdf". This gives us the right to claim the damage with the courier and it will be used against a replacement item or a refund. This way you are spared of the long waiting time that comes with the official claim. Please send us the pictures/ copies of the documents via this e-mail. The documents need to be signed by hand as computer signatures are not being accepted. Important: the damage report needs to be signed by the Post immediately after the delivery of the parcel, therefore please send us the documents as soon as possible. Once we receive all the required documentation, we will arrange further steps for the return of the damaged product(s). Then the product(s) will be replaced or refunded according to your wishes. Should you have any other questions, do not hesitate to contact us. Kind regards Customer Care International” They have clearly fore gone responsibility for the merchandise and are trying to blame the United States Postal Service for the situation. The packaging is near flawless - both boxes, outer and what the guitar was packaged in. The inner box was inserted into an outer box twice its size with no stuffing to keep it from shifting during transport. The paperwork I have to complete for a return is not worth my time and effort. I believe I will be laughed at when I try to get this paperwork signed. And I feel Thomann is aware of this as well. I am very disappointed in Thomann and will not but anything again nor will I recommend them to anyone. Customer service is a very important piece of the puzzle. I am a small fish in a big pond and I hope they spend my money with pleasure!

[@Lutzilla_]

Hey Cory! ich hoff du nimmst es mir nicht krumm das ich deutsch schreibe..ist auch offtopic, aber irgendwo muss ich ja reinschreiben..also Frage: was hältst du für besser bei einem Gitarrenhals: wenn er komplett aus einem Material ist (zB die ST62 CC ) oder wenn zwei unter schiedliche Hölzer (geleimt) verwendet werden..wär dir sehr dankbar für eine aufschlussreiche Antwort :-)

[@powermouze]

Thanx for your review!

[@tolvajakos]

Hello, Cory, your SC junior and doublecut links don't seem to work for me (other links do)

[@CoryMura]

hm..i rechecked them and they worked. will see if other viewers will complain too

[@presoonjames438]

Corey how well this plays metal ? Or is it a better straight up metal machine ? I mean I haven't tried out p90s that much. Only twice or thrice and it was all with other musicians set up, I always had wondered if this thing good for metal or not , I know p90s aren't great at that but still tell me your honest opinion bruh

[@martinhroch344]

If you're used to playing metal on modern hi-gain amps, you will be really disappointed. P-90s are kinda "Lo-Fi" pickups that aren't meant to be used with much gain: *1.* They will emit a lot of noise. Not just 60hz cycle hum, but they are also very sensitive to RFI (radio frequency interference), so if the guitar isn't shielded thoroughly, they will pick up waves from phones, Wi-Fi's, radio broadcasting etc. *2.* They will get really fluffy and "untight" with a lot of distortion. If you play black metal or stoner/doom, good for you.

[@presoonjames438]

@@martinhroch344 thank you brother ... You explained that to me correctly . I never used it personally all my guitars are HH or Single H. Bye the way I don't play doom or black so often. And thank thou so much!

[@martinhroch344]

@@presoonjames438 P-90s are great pickups, but they are totally different than humbuckers. Of course they are not *only* for black and stoner metal, but it will take a lot of effort and trying to get something useful for other metal genres out of them. They are simply not made for it. Invaders or EMGs would also sound bad for blues and jazz.

[@MetalJamesK]

Hey bro hope all is well!

[@jasujokelainen5073]

Can i replace this stock mic lets say, a humbucker? Does anybody know? Thanks!

[@dambrooks7578]

Sounds good, classic look with what sounds like a very classic sound.

[@appetiteforguitar]

Hey Cory, love your videos! Been watching and enjoying since you started posting. Just wondering what's happening with you/your channel. Hope you're ok!

[@danio4794]

Where are you? Still alive? Let me know please

[@JareddarArt]

Nice looking guitar and a well made review. I always enjoy them. Personally for me that guitar would work better if the pickup was more central between neck and bridge. I wonder what sites under that scratch place that in all honesty seems pointless with this guitar.

[@nuneko11]

I totally agree with you on this!

[@raffaelesix1819]

Hi Cory, I hope you're good

[@chipgutar9235]

Hey! You are cool man. Thanks for a review from Russia!!

[@knarzerbarzer]

Hallo Cory, weiss du zufällig ob der Hals aus einem stück Holz ist?

[@diezelvh4133]

I'd watch you over agufish any day. I don't watch him at all actually. Your why I bought my first and only Harley. Wish they would have paid more attention to you. You were one of the first that sold a lot of guitars for them. Rock on bro. Also, that jatoba (color) they use for fretboard now is a crime against humanity.

[@raptureomega1912]
