"Looks dangerous"
I did not meet my expectations in full, I do not recommend taking this guitar in a set. At the same time, for a beginner, this guitar is perfect. If you want to know what Les Paul is, then this is your choice, but if you are a person who has already dealt with electric guitars, then this is not your choice.

Good for the price but with a few QC issues
The good:
pickups sound good. Finish looks great, frets are not sharp. Tunes and seems to stay in tune. Sustains like a monster even without any amp FX.
The bad:
a few QC issues which should have made it B stock,
very minor paint finishing marks where the side of the fretboard has been painted black but not completely.
Perhaps not quite as minor- the tuners are fitted really badly, on one side of the headstock rear they are kind of aligned, on the others they are what could best be described as higgledy piggledy, as in allover the place. The tuners work but they feel super, super, super cheap.
Overall, sounds good, looks nice but not in close-up, finish feels like some kind of powdered matte and when you move your hand over the top you can feel inconsistencies in the finish, like the coating was applied a little unevenly. A bit disappointed to be frank- I'll be returning it which is a pain in the neck.

Les Paul style guitar.
I had bought several other Harley Benton guitars and had been more than pleased with them so I wondered what the cheapest model would be like.
From the moment I opened the box I was unimpressed with this one. It looks dull in it?s matt finish. It is very heavy. The tuners are poor in operation. The feel of it does not inspire me at all.
After saying all that, there is nothing really wrong with it, it seems well put together. It has a very thick neck.
I suggest if you want a low price, high value LP style guitar, save up the few extra pounds or euros and buy the SC450+ model instead, they are really great guitars!
