The Harley Benton Nashville Nylon Plus Black is a unique stage-ready guitar that combines nylon strings with a solid Sitka spruce top and a chambered thinline-style body made from solid mahogany. While conventional nylon-string guitars often struggle with feedback during live performances, this model solves the problem with a Fishman Sonicore Piezo pickup system, ensuring that every guitarist can cut through the mix in a band context, even in very high-volume environments. In order to break away from the look of a "conventional" classical guitar, the top of the Harley Benton Nashville Nylon Plus is finished in sleek black, while the striking "Flower Vine" fingerboard inlay completes the guitar's impressive stage presence.
Using a conventional nylon-string guitar in a loud band or stage environment is often challenging, but the Harley Benton Nashville Nylon Plus Black simplifies the task with its built-in piezo pickup - simply plugging in a 6.35mm jack cable gives players access to the full range of benefits that come with an electric instrument. Amplifying the guitar's sound becomes effortless, effects can be added seamlessly, and both feedback and background noise are significantly reduced. The two-band EQ with controls for bass and treble also allows the sound to be fine-tuned, while the volume control regulates the signal level sent to user's amplifier, mixing desk, or computer.
Designed for guitarists seeking to amplify a nylon-string guitar during gigs, rehearsals, or recording sessions, the Harley Benton Nashville Nylon Plus Black offers an affordable option that will appeal to beginners seeking great value for money as well as to advanced players needing a versatile, high-quality second instrument. Its flexible acoustic sound and elegant appearance mean that this guitar will provide a reliable companion both on stage and in the rehearsal room - and for those chilled-out playing sessions at home, the guitar additionally features a sound port on its upper bout to allow players to enjoy its pure acoustic sound from the comfort of their couch.

The ability to amplify the Harley Benton Nashville Nylon Plus Black opens up a wide range of possibilities, allowing players to simply connect the guitar to an amplifier, mixer, or audio interface and immediately dive into recording sessions, live performances with a PA system, or amplified practice through an acoustic amp without the hassle of cumbersome microphone setups that restrict movement and often lead to feedback or unwanted background noise. The built-in active preamp not only boosts the sound but also provides precise control over the tonal balance and allows the instrument to adapt to various environments or performance situations. Powered by a 9V battery that is easily inserted at the back of the guitar, the preamp automatically turns off when the cable is unplugged, helping to conserve battery life when the guitar is not in use.
