An okayish guitar
Humanoidtyphoon47 13.02.2019
My first guitar from thomann and my first harley benton guitar

When the guitar arrived and i unboxed it, i noticed bits and chunks of the nut all over the guitar and i noticed the nut was like kinda rushed when someone tries to filed it. There are some minor inperfection here and there but what could you expect from this price point.

Pro
1.Looks good
2.Good high gain sounding pup
3.Neck feels nice, no sharp edges
4.Its quite light and thin (for me)


Cons
1.The fretbar is a little too rough (bending feels very rough)
2.The fretboard is little dirty and dry (probably normal)
3. Very minor paint issue on both tailpiece and the bridge
4.The tailpiece have a little metal sticking out that is pointy and sharp
5.The pickup are...too distorted
6.The nut was filed down in rushed manner
7. It got neck dive...

Despite the cons of this guitar i still recommend it TO PEOPLE WHO KNOW HOW TO FIX SOME OF THESE CONS definitely not a beginner guitar IMO, personally some of these cons can be easily fix anyway.

шикарная гитара за с&#1074
Rem666 26.10.2021
despite the fact that Russia, with Thomann order to become more and more expensive because of the decision to send the item only ups shipping
let's talk about the guitar
the guitar is made of very high quality
active pickups show itself is very good and clean channel and the Overdrive
good form but it has its drawbacks
horn causes inconvenience in the game at the lower frets
glued the neck behaves well
I can note one more minus
the port for jack is quickly loosened

I made a wise choice!
Anonymous 19.01.2017
I am amazed, to be honest; this is 150 euros and somehow a super dense, mahogany metal guitar with active pickups.
I can only speak for my own experience, but the guitar I received was practically perfect - low action, beautiful finish, just great to play straight from the box!
The guitar gods were smiling on me I guess, I am only using a Blackstar Fly 3 Mini amp, so I cannot really say how well the pickups perform at high volume, but that said, the Fly 3 can kick out a decent sound, and I had no noise issues from the active pickups (which have been reported by some tests last year - (check out on Youtube).
That is impressing me, no noise, clear sound, and a heavy sound on the fat strings. Again, its my perfect metal guitar for 150 euros... There has to be a catch, right?!
Bridge is really nice, nobs are smooth, toggle switch is decent and seems like it will last. No cheap nasty parts, Tuners are all good. I cant find a fault at all.
Its a fantastic guitar and for the price, jesus....
If you like heavy, solid, black, metal guitars, no reason on earth I couldn't recommend this.

My review for the Harley Benton Extreme-84
LukaZ 12.11.2024
So I've ordered this guitar about 10 days ago, and was really looking forward to it. I watched a lot of videos saying it was good and had a great sound etc. When I first got it, the package was damaged, and when I opened it, there was another box (which is good). The guitar itself looked really beautiful and was protected well. But when I first started playing it, the neck was good, but also a bit damaged (not much) and the strings were very low-quality. When I plugged it in, the sound it had was very good. The pick ups are very well made and the overall sound fulfilled my expectations. But when I switched to the neck pick up, IT DID NOT WORK. I suppose it is probably because of bad wiring (not sure, I'm not a professional for electronics) because sometimes it makes a sound and sometimes not, but 95% of the time it's not working. I thought I could improvise and use it as a kill switch which was really cool. Overall I don't recommend this guitar to beginners, but it's actually an okay instrument.
