Harley Benton Fusion-III HSS Roasted FNT

I purchased this after several weeks of research and going into box stores where I live in the U.S. I couldn't find anything in my price range I wouldn't regret buying due to good sound but low quality that would bother me down the road. Straight out of the box, the action was what I wanted, and still have yet to swap the strings out.

To speak on the aesthetics and feel for a moment. I love the neck on this thing. It is satin smooth and had no sharp frets or damage during shipping. The quality components and roasted neck in your hands make this feel like a much more expensive guitar than it is.

This is my first personal guitar with Thoman. I spent a long time choosing among many other guitars and finally settled on this one. The order was placed very quickly and everything was sent in the shortest possible time. It took about 3 weeks to reach Kazakhstan. After arrival, the customs clearance process began. In the future, if you order a lot of goods at once, ask that the parcel be divided into equal parts in value, so customs clearance will cost less. The guitar itself came well packaged, upon opening no defects were found, but at first glance it seemed to me that the neck was slightly bent. I twisted the truss rod a little and hung it on the stand. The next day everything was fine. I took the instrument to a guitar maker and he polished the guitar to perfection. Therefore, in any case, I advise you to do exactly the same after receiving it, since in some places fine tuning is required. The single-coils are very high quality and easy to read, but the humbucker is a little windy. The master said this because they regretted the windings. And of course, immediately change the existing strings, they turned out to be very hard and not of very high quality. Overall I'm very pleased with the guitar. I've wanted it for a long time and I like the appearance, the comfortable neck, the quality of the product, and of course the sound. My rating is 5!
