Nicely Packaged
Opening the box was event as i said well packaged. This was a thing of beauty. Looked and felt awesome. First thing first strings came not my gauge , no problem. The action was nice but i setup guitars for a living so a tiny little adjustable required on the Floyd Rose .. And we are good to go..
I have had the guitar for three weeks now and i honesty say this is one of the best guitars i have ever played .. Dare I Say ? The Best
Build and finish 100% Feels great in the hand and sounds incredible.. I have Fender and Gibsons among others this is Better in every way .

Best budget guitar
I found the Harley Benton SC-3 Custom FR to be an excellent guitar for the price. It looks and feels far more premium than expected, with a sleek design and a comfortable, fast neck that makes playing effortless.
One of my favorite things is the black finish with gold hardware—it gives the guitar a very classy, high-end look that really stands out. The vintage matte black paired with gold-plated details makes it feel much more expensive than it actually is and adds a strong visual presence on stage.
The Floyd Rose tremolo adds a lot of expressive potential, staying stable and allowing for smooth vibrato and dive bombs. Sound-wise, it’s very versatile—the pickups deliver warm cleans and powerful high-gain tones, making it great for a wide range of styles, especially rock and metal. The coil-split feature is a nice bonus for extra tonal variety.
Overall, it’s an impressive, feature-packed instrument that delivers outstanding value and performance well beyond its price range.

It’s its own model guitar
Beautiful guitar. The neck is thin perfect for fast runs feels like a modern D not a C. The action and sound is impeccable! With a Grover tuner and a Floyd Rose 1000, how can you go wrong. For the build and quality of this guitar, it’s a bargain!

That's simply an amazing guitar
The guitar arrived arrived today.
No flaws detected apart a minimal scratchy feeling on the 3 string on 22nd fret.
The guitar feels great. Well balanced, no neck dive and nice weight. I performed a setup as it was a bit high for my taste( btw don't adjust Floyd rose height without removing springs and detuning strings, to avoid damaging the blades). The pickups are really nice( I put them against my esp and they held great). Grover tuners and even strap locks included.
After jamming for an hour, I'm super satisfied. BTW the guitar is huge and I like it a lot( I'm 183cm) but keep it in mind as it can be a surprise.
I was trying a very very similar four times more expensive guitar the other day and I do prefer this one🙂
