Harley Benton Fusion II Range £350 range

Hi All,

Anybody tried these so for example https://www.thomann.de/gb/harley_benton_fusion_ii_hsh_roasted_fbb.htm?sid=b5540201af255830188bad8b2b19e1d5

The specs look quite good, complete with steel frets. What are the guitars in this price range like? I have seen very good reviews and also some good (stating pickups are very meh).

Are Thomann returns good? Thanks in advance folks.

    I’ve got one. Fantastic build but heavy and pickups are VERY microphonic.

    Fantastic modding platform!

    They look like a shed ton of guitar for Squire prices.
    interesting to hear they are heavy think it will stay on the  B list as loath stupid concrete block weight guitars

    @LooseMoose thanks for the info. I wonder if the fusion II are all heavy.

    I saw a YouTube review, he marked the guitar down for incorrect pots and being noisy. The pickups were shielded and he showed how he modified his for action, tremelo and silence the noise. I'll dig it out later.

    Thanks again for any feedback.

    I can only comment on mine - perhaps they aren’t all like it (although I also have a PRS knockoff by HB and that’s a boat anchor too).

    Mine is now sporting a set of nickel covered pickups and sounds phenomenal now.
