Same dude. Good to know there other people out there who are my age who have a sensitivity to this style of music.

The big appeal to me are the stainless steel frets. Might pick this up. Wish Charvel would offer stainless Steel frets in their range that isn't custom shop 3K+ guitars. Other brands like Solar, Ibanez and ESP LTD atleast offers them for around 1-1.5K. I don't feel comfortable dropping the same amount for nickel frets when I have experienced SS frets. They're superior in every way. Feel and wear wise.

I don't think any Fender instruments offer it outside of Japan/USA and maybe Mexico? The more competition that does I'm sure we'll see it creep in. I was looking at the Vivaldi Charvel and it's a made in Korea model so I guess as other brands offer it the EVH/Charvel/Jacksons from these factories will at some point. Though there are plenty of people who don't like SS frets. I notice Chapman are offering SS on some models around ~1k.

What a beauty of a guitar CC! You are playing and sounding better every video. BATM solo of Jake's was superb. May have to pick one of these up myself. Thank you Cameron!

Gorgeous guitar, and great playing!!!

You are an absolutely amazing guitarist!

Insane. Great playing! A great sounding guitar.

Awesome, seemingly effortless fluidity!!!

Great guitar for the price.💯 The bridge tap is definitely significant... Your playing has increased exponentially in the last few years!👍😎 🔥🎸🔥

dude you shred, amazing playing and great review

Amazing for the price. Also your playing is top notch 🙌

Wow, you had me at stainless steel fret’s! Personally I have always loved them. Very smooth and slick feel to them. They will last virtually forever, and I’ve always paid a premium for them. So impressed that they come standard on a value guitar!

Great videoshooting and playing job

What the…?! Fantastic guitar! Stainless steel frets?! Roasted neck?! A Floyd FRT1000? . I thought for sure you would say Floyd Rose Special. But nope. They stuck the good one on it! The specs are incredible. And for 385? How they do it indeed.

Let me attest to the quality of these Fusion series. I've the first run Fusion T HH FNT and it is amazing. Still plays like the first day I got it. Even better. These are amazing and now my most played.

Your playing is incredible.

awesome playing and tone

that ffdp lick at the begining in amazing and well played

Love my Harley Benton Fusion-III HSH. Great video.

Whew! Now that's a playing demo!

Great playing, made my day:) Seems to be a considerably good guitar for the price.

Sounds great!

Wonderful playing and presentation. I will order one next week! It will be my 8th HB...

Awesome Demo Cam!! You nailed Fives !!

I bought a Fusion II used for very cheap and I'm still amazed at the quality. The only change I made to the guitar is to change the bridge humbucker to a Seymour Duncan JB (I guess the Fusion III bridge humbucker was upgraded sound wise). While I own some high end guitars, I'd definitely buy another Harley Benton. PS - I had to use Ernie Ball Primo Slinkys (9.5 - 42.5) on the Fusion II because it played and bent notes way to easy with a 9 set.

Ordered one last night Cam, I watched alot of these reviews but knowing you play these particular style of guitars I valued your opinion more than most. As always stellar playing mate. 🤘

Outstanding guitar playing! You get what you pay for.

Amazing sound.

La chitarra è strepitosa, ma tu sei davvero spettacolare, che percorso lungo che hai fatto, e hai acquisito una padronanza davvero eccezionale. Ti seguo da moltissimi anni da quando eri un ragazzino, ora sei un uomo adulto e hai acquisito un tocco e una tecnica forte. Continua così ragazzo non smettere mai. Non permettere a nessuno di fermare quel l'anima musicale bellissima. Grazie per i tuoi video Harley🎸💯👍🏻🤟🏻

It certainly looks great.

Bought one and love the roasted canadian maple neck. But over all a really great value!

The roasted Canadian maple neck and flame top on mine are just beautiful. It has a lot of features that most pay double for with other brands. I just have alot of guitars with Alnico 5s in them. This guitar is worth upgrading pick ups for. It truly does offer alot for your buck. Well spent on this model. Mine was 369.00 and I bought the hard case combo through thomann. With shipping it was like 504.99. Arrived way fast. Like 4 business days later. It does compare to my 93 pro Jackson dinky that has a branded jackson floyd rose from germany. This is a Japan mode, but rare. Reverse shark tooth inlays. Different then the necks today. Hockey stick neck style.

Cameron Cooper you are amazing!!

Amazing value

Your playing has gone up a gear of two Cam. Love those arpeggios.

I Love it! I'm ok with that guitar... ❤️🎸🤘🏼🍻

As soon as you hit the first power chord I knew where you were goin with it.. Gods Of War.. Best Def Leppard song out there.

Bought my first one (Harley Benton Fusion-III HH FR EB FBLB) for $277.00. Loved it so much I bought a (Harley Benton Fusion-III HSH EB FBB B-Stock) for $199.00. Both guitars are gorgeous and needed NO adjustment. Just excellent! FYI shipping for 2 guitars from Germany to the U.S is only $66.83 if shipped together.

You nailed the Guthrie Govan part!

That guitar seems like a great product especially at that price point !! BUT ... in your hands , I believe , any guitar would "sound" amazing !! Nice work , sir !!

I've just ordered a B-stock and since I do my own setups I feel confident I can make it work. Main reason to get one is to have good Floyd equipped guitar and try the roasted maple neck to see if I like it. I have bought a used fusion ll before and it was really good after some setup. The stainless steel frets are not the highest quality so they'll need care just like other frets, only just not as often. I've ordered a push in arm because I hate those collar tightened arms. It should be good from there on. I hope the pickups are ok, if not I have some Bill Lawrences ready to go 😉

Sweet!

man that bark at the moon solo 🤤🤤🤤

Sounds great

Way to review such an amazingly priced axe with one of Guthrie's best riffs! I might have to pick one of these up.

Sick!!!

Great review. I have this guitar but the II version, the only difference is separate switch for the coils. It is really insane value, the neck feels better than 2k USD guitars. The only thing that seems cheap is electronics (the volume is basically 100% or 0%), but can't really ask for everything.

Maybe change the wolume pod. Don't cost much. If you know how to soldering, or they can do it for you in the shop. or if you know someone who can. If you do it yourself, remember to take a picture beforehand so you can see which wire goes where.

I don't really care about the guitar, I just like watching you shred!

I once bought a guitar for 50 dollars in Bucharest, Romania. I was amazed at how good it played. It wasn't a "good" guitar, but good enough for practise. And the VERY BEST 50 dollar guitar I've ever bought. OTOH £400 for that sounds pretty amazing!

Nice!

That opening section was very reminiscent of Angel Vivaldi, nice stuff!

Brilliant.

I have the same one non floyd rose ultra flametop neck awesome.

Awesome! One thing I've found on the Harley Bentons is most when you get them have slightly scratchy frets. If yours does on the off chance, don't fret about it at all, just play it for a couple hours and they'll smooth out. They're so fun to play
