Nicely made, but not necessarily a drop-in replacement
I have also reviewed the matching pickguard and much the same comments apply. If you are buying this to replace the backplate on a Harley Benton guitar and hoping that the screw holes will line up, they won't (or at least the didn't on mine). This is a little smaller than the one fitted to the guitar, so I had to drill some holes. I had to drill four new ones and could reuse two existing ones, but didn't need to plug any (the unused holes were all covered by the new backplate). The cutout for access to the strings also doesn't line up perfectly with the block, so I will have to remove the backplate for string changes. I could have made it line up, but that would have left unused screw holes exposed and required more drilling.
Despite all this, it looks the part and seems to be well made.

I had no issue with the existing part, I simply bought this to go along with new pickgaurd.
Perfect fit, and excellent value.
