Harley Benton Fusion-III HH FR EB FBB

I've been playing guitar for 29 years now...f*** I'm old... :)
I'd just like to point that out so you'd know that I'm an experienced player and I have all of my dream guitars (Les Paul, Strat, Tele, Gretsch, Martin), and those are not the low end ones...so, I'd like to think that I know a thing or two about guitars...
So, let me tell you...
A couple months ago I started thinking about Floyd rose style guitars again (I've had my Steve Vai/Satriani period in my teens), so I wanted to get a guitar with 24 frets and a Floyd, but I was really low on budget, so instead of buying an Ibanez, I opted for this guitar.
I've seen many reviews of it on You tube and some people had some complaints, but let me tell you....I can't see one bad thing on this guitar. It's amazing to me how it costs 300euro and it has an original Floyd Rose which, by the way, stays in tune like a charm. It's got a really nice dark ebony fretboard (in my opinion it sounds better than the roasted maple), stainless steel frets (somehow during all my time playing guitar I've managed not to play one with stainless steel frets, for some reason I avoided them for no good reason...) and a well balanced and contoured body, so you can reach 24th fret easily.
I saw some people complained about frets not being perfect, but I have a totally diferrent experience. They are flawless. As the matter of fact, the whole guitar is flawless. All I did when I received it was a little set up (I tightened the neck because it had a little bow, and I lowered the trem because the action was too high) and now it just plays like butter...actually, like melted butter...it almost plays by itself.
Down the line, I guess that I'll be replacing the pickups, but I really am not complaining, these Roswell pickups are not bad at all.
If I have to make one complaint, which is really more like a sugestion for Thomann in the future, I really think that it would be nice if the back and sides had some see through finish and not just black, it looks like plastic to me, and really cheap this way. Oh, and one more thing...the back plate could be routed in, not just screwed on and sticking out, looks weird when all of the other parts are ergonomically shaped and perfect. So, as I said, those are not complaints really, just sugestions...
Why are you still reading this....go and get one for yourself, you won't regret it!

My Fusion FR arrived flawless!!! Amazing paint job, the neck has a pitch black ebony fretboard with full polished stainless steel frets! The neck is 1mm thicker (21mm at the first fret) than the Fender Strats or Charvels. The Floyd Rose 1000 tremolo is amazing, the tuning is 100% stable. All the electronics work perfectly. The knobs are the metal ones with the allen screw. The guitar came in tune and with a full set-up, I just lowerd the action to 1,6mm which i prefer. Although i have some DiMarzio pickups i will not change the Rosewell HAF-Alnico-5 set. I love them. They are PAF style pickups medium to high output, clear but a bit dark with a nice growl and bite with overdrive which i really like. I have the guitar from May 2023, and still is my best FR guitar to play.
Approved and Recommended.
