PROS
- • Ash body with flamed maple top delivers a surprisingly resonant and articulate tone.
- • Roswell STA pickups offer a convincing vintage Telecaster vibe with decent clarity.
- • Bolt-on maple neck provides a snappy feel and easy playability for faster styles.
- • Die-cast tuners ensure stable tuning, a notable upgrade for this price point.
CONS
- • The ash body, while good, might be a bit too lightweight for some players' preference.
- • Hardware finish, while 'deluxe', may show wear and tear quicker than higher-end alternatives.
- • The 3-way switch limits tonal flexibility compared to a traditional 5-way Tele setup.

Frequently Asked Questions
It's closer to a 'C' shape, slightly thinner than many vintage Tele necks, but still comfortable and familiar.
They exhibit a bit more inherent noise than premium pickups, but it's manageable with proper grounding and isn’t overwhelming.
While Harley Benton strives for consistency, natural finishes can show slight variations in grain and color – this is part of their charm, but it’s something to be aware of.
