Excellent for the price, but...
This is very well made and I think it sounds pretty good too. It has a neck that, as an electric guitar player with some arthritis, I find very comfortable. It's like an oversized strat neck, sort of. I like it.
The guitar needed some work to be made to play nicely, and as I do guitar setups that isn't a problem for me. But anyone buying one should be aware of this. Mostly it was OK...good construction and finish, tuners and piezo electrics worked...but there were some very rough fret ends and, although the fretboard is radiused, they put a flat nut and bridge on it like a conventional nylon string guitar so the outside strings were very high. I did some filing and polishing to curve them to the radius, and now it plays great...but it shouldn't have been necessary to do, especially as someone could do it poorly and damage their guitar.

After watching hundreds of Youtube reviews on HB quality, I'm disappointed
For the money I expect a few minor defects. One at the base of the neck below the fretboard was extremely obvious. The rest of the finish was fine.
The setup was poor. The action was high, the neck bowed and a good deal of buzzing. Also the frets on both sides of the fretboard will bite you they're so rough. If I keep it, it will take several hours of work to get it in shape.
Maybe it's the luck of the draw. It's my first HB and the reviews online were all raving about overall quality of their products.

Basic but fine
It's a basic guitar, but the relation quality/prize is very good. I've change the original strings and the sound is better. I think it's a good choise for start to play a guitar or to have a spare guitar.
