- Hi Guys, How's It Going!
Today I have another Harley Benton review for you! In this video I will be reviewing and unboxing the Harley Benton TE-20HH SBK. This guitar is very versatile as you will see in this video! It is a great beginners guitar OR a great modding platform for anyone wanting a cost effective project.
I have never seen a Harley Benton Guitar go out of stock so quickly due to high demand! I thought the EX-84's went out of stock quickly, but this is on another level so make sure you get one as soon as they are announced to be back in stock!

God damn... Harley Benton is delivering guitars that at a price point that NO ONE competes with! I'm buying two as soon as they are in stock, one for me and one for my brother 🔥🔥🔥
Not only are they at a great price point, but they are fantastic guitars even if they were £120-£150!! They play, feel and sound fantastic!
They should be arriving in stock again in March all being well 😄🤘
Thanks for watching

Good old 2691 what a legend that dude been checking guitars so long he became a model number
I know! So lucky to have such a master QC my guitar 😁👍
Mine shipped this morning! Awesome video brother....just gets me more pumped up! Probably drop a vid myself lol!
Wow, sounds great!! Harley Benton really have been one to watch for affordable guitars which sound good!
Omg the guitar is sooo great, cant wayt to get me one of those baddies🤘
Awesome video as always brother! rock on🤘🔥
Just bought it. Was a great choice!
Thank you for making this video!
Good review!
Great video as always bro!
Thanks my man!! 🤘🔥🤘
Just got mine in the mail a couple hours ago. Super pretty and great sounding. Also looks like they changed it a bit sense this video. Cause now it's a string through body.
That’s awesome 😎 I’m glad you like it!! Oh it’s a string through now? I’m glad they changed that. The string through will be so much better 👍👍
Good to know, I'm just about to order one.
Tasty playing, amazing guitar!
Great review and playing! At the price I thought this might be a mod-platform guitar, but nothing wrong with those humbuckers at all and it looks great!
Thank you so much Alexis! Might thoughts exactly! Might need to change the tuners but I’ll see after a couple of weeks of playing it 👍
oh yeah its great a great candidate - I bought 2 and done massive body mods on one to convert to a travel guitar.... bolt on neck and spare strings and it is super transportable....
Hi Wesley, love mine, after 5 months sounds better , amazing guitar for the price !whats the best cheap mode to make it better ?
Maybe lower distance strings to freet and polish the metal parts ? Keep the good job in your videos 🤘💪
I need one!
Now that looks proper nice, dare I say it nicer than the other!? Will you mod it like the strat type? Plus do you know if they do replacement scratchplates for them? Too work my friend 🤘🏻
It’s fantastic mate! HB are making guitars that are exceptional! Not just for the price! I tried a £330 guitar I wanted to buy the other day and it was horrible compared to this one!
I don’t think they do replacement pickguards, but they are pretty standard I think. Might need to drill a hole or two like I did with my St-20 but the TE style ones might fit better 👍
I might do but I’m not very sure yet, may keep it as it is as it’s really not bad at all! Or I may keep it for a special occasion 😜
Thanks mate and keep those covers coming!!

3 years later would you still recommend it? I’m planning on getting it as my first guitar to learn on, if only ever seen great reviews on it, plus it’s pretty sexy looking 😂🖤
Wesley is the human version of korg from ragnarok.
Hey, hey, hey. Hey. Take it easy, man. Over here. The pile of rocks waving at you. Here. Yeah, I'm actually a thing
I said that when I first found him too, it seems I’m not the only one that agrees then 😂
I ordered one this morning as the bundle with padded guitar case and cable for 99. Supposed to come this week!!!
How was it? Did you like it?
Love it! I bought it expressly to mod. The stock pickups have fake pole adjustment screws. No matter because I upgraded $190 in parts: Guyker Guitar Locking Tuners, Tonerider Birmingham Humbucker Set, CPB500AF Bourns Pro D500K Audio Taper Guitar Speed Pot-Fine Spline, CPB500AF Bourns Pro D500K Audio Taper Guitar Speed Pot-Fine Spline, NWPJ1-12 Dress Nuts & Washers For Pots & Jacks-Black (3 used), Cornell Dubilier Orange Drop .022 Microfarad Tone Capacitor, Graph Tech TUSQ XL Guitar String Trees Sleek (2), Graph Tech Black TUSQ XL Flat Bottom Slot Nut PT-5010-00, CRL 3-Way Pickup Selector Blade Switch for Tele Style Electric Guitar w/Black Strat Tip, Black/White Cloth-Covered Pre-tinned 7-Strand Pushback 22awg Vintage-Style Guitar Wire, Copper Foil with Conductive Adhesive 2" roll EMI Shielding (4' used), Switchcraft 11 Mono Female 1/4-Inch Jack with Nut and Washer Nickel Finish, ZoSo Vinyl Decal Sticker Black.
Can you swap out the current pickups for some EMG's without having to route out anything?
I wanted to try this one, and tune it drop C and to put new set of pups like Gojira's Joe duplantier signature set
Do it! What I do to make it easier on the guitar is keep it in Standard tuning and use the Digitech drop pedal. Then you can Neón standard tuning at all times and if you want to go to drop c, drop G or even E1 you can by the flick of a switch 😃🤘
The Gojira pups would sound sick in this 👍😃

Please make a review of HWY-20BKS Progressive series HH :')
Wesley, what are the pros and cons of this guitar?
hey, whats the size of the humbucker hole/mount on the bridge? hearing that it wont fit a humbucker that has covers. thanks! :)
Quite a sub jump after that last video lol
Isn`t it amazing, how much guitar we can buy nowadays for 100€/90pounds ? Thanx for the chops.
Incredible right!?! Thanks for watching and I’m glad you liked it 😄👍

Received this guitar yesterday. It feels great to me, but I'm a bit disappointed with the a lot of buzz I hear. Though when I put my hand on my laptop or sound interface the buzz is not so loud. Maybe the stock cable is also a source of trouble?
How would you describe the neck profile? It says Modern C in the description, but I've been reading reviews where people are saying it has a very chunky neck. How would you describe the neck: slim C, medium C, chunky C?
watch him reach for the whammy bar at 2:03 .....old habits die hard
Haha yup, I’ve done that too many times to count 😂👍
I 've always loved Teles and my favorite one to play is my HB Fusion-T HH. I wanted a guitar that I could setup for C standard so I purchased one of these. I can't wait until it arrives here in the US. I'm not a big fan of the pickguard color, has anyone replaced the pickguard on one of these that they can recommend?
Ah man I really wanted to try one of those Fusion T’s. You will not be disappointed! It is a great great guitar 😃🤘
I haven’t changed the one on my guitar but I did replace the one on my strat and I had to drill new holes into it. I’d probably say that if you’re going to change it, be prepared to drill new holes (just in case)

Just Paint it the color you want
I dont mean to be off topic but does any of you know of a tool to get back into an Instagram account..?
I somehow forgot my account password. I would appreciate any tips you can offer me.
@Immanuel Ameer instablaster ;)
@Miles Fox Thanks so much for your reply. I found the site thru google and I'm trying it out now.
Seems to take a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
What’s the pickup output on those medium or higher? The Roswells in my CST 24t’s from HB were pretty hot!
I just got my HB and did a quick output-measurement: they are insanely high at 38.6K (bridge) and 39.5K (neck)! They sound quite good tho, and I'm not yet sure what humbuckers I want to replace them with and whether I want to replace them at all...
Dude where can I get a HB T shirt?
The new ones have the strings through the body.
has the paint on the fret board come off or anything?
It has indeed. After a bit of playing and a good clean you won’t have to worry about a job fingertips anymore 😄👍
Does anyone know what type of frets are on this please? How tall?
Hi Mei, normally most guitars are made with nickel frets. However they are only called nickel frets but they most of the time composed of 18 percent nickel, 80 percent copper, and small amounts of such other materials as zinc, lead, and cadmium. This being said it is not 100% confirmed on the HB site of the Thomann site of what material is actually use but this is my guess.
As to how tall they’re I would roughly say 2mm.
I hope this helps
Wes \m/
Do you reckon it could handle 12 gauge strings?
I don’t see why not. As long as it is set up correctly 😄👍
these ever gonna come back
I can confirm that these are indeed coming back 😄 I have had confirmation from Harley Benton that they should arrive back in stock around March all being well, but they cannot pin point a specific date due to COVID
Thanks
Wes \m/
My biggest regret this year so far. Not buying one before they disappeared from the site.
Do not worry, I have spoken to Harley Benton and they are coming back into stock around March time all being well 😄🤘
@@WesleyGuitarWebb awwwwww sheeeeeiiiiiit! I'm so excited!!!! I purchased the strat one instead so now just have to make room for another bundle of joy!! I really enjoy you tutorial videos too. Keep up the awesome work
They will be back in a week. You can pre-order now.
How much did they pay you? 😂
At the time of this video I had less than 800 subscribers 😂 so no, I did not get paid for this video and I actually bought the guitar with my own money! 😂 even now with 1200+ subs I wouldn’t get paid for videos 👌
