Harley Benton Fusion-III HH HT Roasted SPP

After trying a b-stock Harley Benton just to check out the brand, I was so impressed, I started looking for one of their higher end guitars. The day the Fusion III came out, I snatched one up. I've been looking for a roasted maple neck for 2 years, but the prices have really gone up. The prices for the HB roasted maple necks make them almost impossible to pass up. I really do love the "sparkle pink" color. It's more on the purple side - which is a plus. And, I love that it's sparkle pink on the front, then the binding, then an antique red for the back. It's beautiful.
Every inch of this guitar makes it worth more than the actual price. The neck is the first thing that impressed me. It's very comfortable. There are 2 frets with fret sprout, but that's easy to fix.
I love getting a guitar that already has locking tuners. I usually put them on my guitars, but don't have to with this one. And, there aren't any issue with it staying in tune. Graphtech nut - can't complain.
The Roswell pickups are decent enough, but I'm a fan of Dimarzio, so chances are the pickups will be replaced. And, I guess I'm a traditionalist, but I don't really care for coil split. I have my single coil guitars for a reason.
The volume and tone pots are perfect. The volume tapers very well and the tone pot works perfectly. I have 2 other Harley Benton guitars and I have to replace the volume on those because they don't taper well. But the volume on the Fusion III is perfect!
For the price, you really can't go wrong. I own several guitars that were over $1000 ea, and I love them. But, after buying the Fusion III and a b-stock SC-550 II, I won't ever buy another guitar in the $1000+ range as long as Harley Benton keeps putting out this kind of quality. I've even gotten my friends interested in checking them out.

It's a great guitar for the money, you defenetly get more for that price.
Mine had some minnor gc issues. There were some tool marks on the neck and the frets need some shining but that's all the negatives I've found.
Stays in tune pretty well. The neck is easy to play.The roasted maple neck is really amazing. Looks great!
The pick ups aren't that hot or agressive but you can split them and get more tonal options for your sound.

En general muy satisfecho con la compra. Nunca habia comprado una guitarra sin antes probarla y aún así viendo videos y comentarios me decidí a pedirla.
El embalaje deja un poco que desear ya que viene una caja dentro de otra mas grande y apenas llevaba relleno y se movia mucho. Aún así la guitarra llegó en perfectas condiciones. Fue sacarla de la caja y ponerte a tocar con ella. Venia perfectamente ajustada a mi gusto.
La guitarra se ve genial la mires por donde la mires. El mastil es muy cómodo y enseguida te haces a el. El sonido es bastante bueno, aunque la pastilla del cuello parecia como que le faltaba un poco de sonido, cosa que solucioné acercandola un poco mas a las cuerdas. Por ponerle alguna pega, sería los trastes ya que no vienen muy bien pulidos y el roce con las cuerdas es un poco brusco, cosa que supongo irá mejorando con el uso. He de decir que después de tocar durante dos horas, la guitarra se mantuvo afinada en todo momento incluso con grandes bendins. Sin duda recomiendo ésta guitarra tanto para principiantes como para músicos profesionales que quieran otra guitarra para su coleccion.
