)
There is something particularly appealing about the rich, room-filling character of a 12-string guitar, and the Harley Benton RB-612CS makes this sound accessible without breaking the bank. Featuring a solid wood body and neck and equipped with two Artec Classic Mini humbuckers, this 60s-inspired hollowbody guitar is sure to deliver a full and articulate sound. Its attractive and robust hardware also makes it a real eye-catcher for fans of the traditional look, while the internal sustain block increases stability and helps keep feedback under control. The guitar's set neck in turn features a slim-taper C profile and a 22-fret laurel fingerboard that ensure a smooth and comfortable playing feel across all registers.

Easy handling
The foundation of the Harley Benton RB-612CS is a combination of an okoume body and a set maple neck, which allow the sound of the 12 strings to come into its own. Two Artec Classic Mini humbuckers offer a generous dynamic range, capturing every detail and faithfully transmitting it to the amplifier, while the well-placed three-way switch makes it easy to individually select or combine the pickups. The chrome-plated hardware, featuring a Casino tailpiece, a classic Tune-O-Matic bridge, and 12 die-cast tuners on the headstock, perfectly complements the appearance of the RB-612CS, ensuring reliable tuning stability and guaranteeing clean intonation across the entire length of the fingerboard.
