Thanks for everyone who participated!
The winner „skizzenmonster“.

[@guvnafied]

I didn't see any comment left on this video by someone with that name @Harley Benton?

[@Mullewarp]

Should'nt the raffle end on 24th of July? That would be in 1 week from now on. And the announcement of the winner was 2 weeks ago? That would be 3 weeks too early.

[@dobaolamdo]

3 week early ?

[@alehawkthunder9012]

John Mayer's Slow dancing in a burning room ❤

[@AakashHaider3000]

I'd play November Rain by Guns N Roses if I were to win the guitar.

[@joseaviles3300]

Excellent video and guitar. It looks Awesome and Sophie has done a great work with the adjustments. If I would win this guitar I would play at first some solos and riffs from Mike Oldfield's discography, like some parts of Ommadawn or Amarok. :)

[@shinkangyoon]

If I somehow did win, I would play The Wombats - Moving to New York. It just gave me a really nice vibe. And also, beautiful guitar and incredible sound! 🎸🤘

[@Dave062YT]

Great stuff .My SC Custom plus arrives today ,cant wait !I've bought a kit to make sure I keep my first new guitar looking and playing like the day I got it .

[@guvnafied]

I'd like to play "May the Fourth be with You" by Guvna (yes, one of my originals!). What I would do, if I won, would be to record my next track on Spotify with this guitar and name the song with a reference to Thomann/Harley Benton. Isn't that what it's all about - creating new music?
Thanks for doing this series of setup videos for us, Thomann - they were super helpful in my new kit build, and the presenters were excellent.

[@TheBrunoleocoelho]

Great video! I would like firstly to play "Hosanna" (from Hillsong United), if I should win that. It's a beautiful song to play with an amazing guitar like that!😃
It's very import to know how to setup an electric guitar properly, and Sophie has showed up the main adjustments everyone can do, for example with that Harley Benton's Kit!

[@stavrosnikidis2380]

Thanks for the video,if i win the guitar i would play santana

[@SlitchTobi]

Seems like „Black Magic Woman“ is a solid choice to play. However my skills might just be enough for „Blitzkrieg Bop“

[@MikeSingSing]

I'm a bit confused. Fret crowning is good and all, but i would not do that with eyes only, and do a proper leveling job and get some markers out first. Also I'd tape the fretboard.
Still a cool guitar though. Probably would play some "Black Magic Woman" on this one, since it reminds me of Santana.

[@jasonquarles1258]

That guitar looks like it would scream!! So I’d play where the river flows- collective soul!

[@dobaolamdo]

I would play U&I k-on if i win the guitar , thankss forr giving away such a nice guitar

Use the best strings you can get and afford. I myself go with Optima Gold. Dont save money on cheap strings. They are one of the most potent and important components in the chain of sound.
Optima have one ofthe nicest Sound I ever encountered.
The last 6 Months even if you play a lot(like 8 hours a day).

[@RJsCave]

@Text on Telegram @HarleyBentonYT Respond to a channel with no content... how does that work exactly being that this is a 300K subscriber giveaway but the contact channel doesn't have any content or subscribers? and if you're giving away 1 guitar why is there a "short list of winners?" that includes every person that has commented on this video? Go away troll.

[@nel1705]
