Okay but some manufacturing issues
I purchased this on backorder in April and ended up reciting the first guitar about a month later. The first guitar was okay but had a large chip out of the neck by the nut, which looked like it had been done at the factory. There were a few other issues also, such as swirling all over the finish, a chip on the headstock and the tone pot had no resistance at all and just spun by itself.
I returned for a replacement with thomann promising to do additional QC checks to make sure these issues weren't present and also reduce the action, which was high on the previous guitar.
The new guitar arrived with a slightly smaller but very similar chip in the wood by the nut, so seems like this is someone being a bit heavy handed at the factory when installing the nut.
The new guitar also has a few other issues: a hairline crack at the neck pocket, a very wobbly selector switch, tooling marks and scratches on the frets, a squeaky tremolo (resolved by wd40), and the high e string is too close to the edge of the fretboard meaning it slips off often and a very badly mismatched flame maple veneer. Nothing major but still frustrating issues. I will be getting the guitar set up at a local shop to improve the playability, so hopefully some of these issues will be solved then.
I took a small partial refund instead of returning because I can't be bothered to get a replacement and then have the same issues again.
However, overall the guitar plays quite well and sounds really good. I love the roswells with my modelling amp as they sound great with all the presets. The guitar is nice and light and the neck is very playable, chunkier than my Fender modern c, but very nice to play.
I think 3 stars is fair, because although it is a nice guitar that has been made with nice components, the quality of workmanship and qc is behind the competition. I won't be returning this but in the future I think I will just stick with higher end squiers, as they haven't let me down in the past.

Nice guitar for this price
It sounds awesome. It has a small quality rate as it has scraps and some technical debts. But I would like to recommend it

Ok, this was better than I hoped for.
I’m impressed, really! Been looking for a guitar with Wilkinson and this hit the spot. It playes great, it looks great and it sounds great. It stays in tune surprisingly good even with wammy abuse. And the pickups are hot and articulated. What more can you ask for? It’s quality better than the price point .
My only con is that it’s got some paint errors in the cut aways but I don’t mind. Then it’s a unique guitar.And it’s mine!

Overall very satisfied
This guitar feels great to play, sounds amazing, and looks awesome. I’m very happy with the purchase of this one. Only real complaint I can give is that there are tool marks further up the neck on the fretboard from filing fret ends. The fret ends themselves are very nice though.

First new guitar in over 20 years
After many years of not playing and growing older I woke up one morning realising I really wanted to play again. I came across Harley Benton from advice from a friend. It is a beautiful guitar to play and the diverse richness of sound I can get with the various pickup settings keeps my moods entertained for hours. The price and versatility this guitar offers is just incredible and it looks stunning. The quality of workmanship is excellent. So pleased I made the purchase. I highly recommend.

Great guitar for the price
I bought this after seeing alot of good reviews online. l play mostly blues and classic rock stuff. My main concern was the neck would be more of shred or metal type but it's not. It's alittle bigger then my strat and feels great in the hand. Overall outstanding guitar for the price and great specs.

גיטרה שנשמעת טוב
A guitar that sounds great and is easy to play and fun. What I didn't like is that the color is less bright than it looks in the picture and the finishes are not that nice, but the sound covers up the shortcomings.
