Poor quality instrument
Disappointing build quality and sound.
Is a plywood mahogany small bodied instrument and unfortunately sound is very poor as a result. The intonation was very poor at the 12th fret.
Build quality on the one I received was not good either. Bridge had thick unsightly paint smeared across half of it. It had several dents in the fretboard which is a rather unattractive composite material. The paintwork on the body and neck were okay.
The instrument has no edge binding and the top is not rounded over where it meets the sides. As a result the plywood top digs uncomfortably into your forearm after only a short time.
Value was not there for me. Does not come with a gig bag as standard.
There are better value full size and travel size instruments on Thomann website that come with gig bags included.
Returned for a refund.

Good tone and size, but disappointing quality control
I bought the Harley Benton Delta Blues T as a small, comfortable sofa guitar. The size is great and the sound itself is not bad, especially for the price.
However, I was very disappointed with the quality control. The intonation is very poor, especially when comparing open strings with the 12th fret, making the guitar difficult to play in tune. The fret ends are also sharp and uncomfortable, and the tuners do not hold tuning well.
It could have been a great little guitar, but the poor finishing, bad intonation, and tuning instability make it frustrating to play.
