Harley Benton Custom Line Chrome Resonator
Description
Description
This second hand resonator guitar is in very good condition.
The Harley Benton Custom Line CLR-Chrome is a resonator guitar that combines vintage aesthetics with modern playability, offering musicians an affordable entry into the world of resonator instruments. Designed for genres like blues, bluegrass, and folk, this guitar aims to deliver the distinctive resonator sound without breaking the bank.
Build Quality & Design
-
Body: Constructed from a nickel-plated iron body, the CLR-Chrome boasts a striking, reflective appearance. The chrome-plated metal not only enhances its visual appeal but also contributes to its characteristic tonal qualities.
-
Neck: Made of mahogany, the neck features a "D" profile, providing a comfortable grip for various playing styles. The wenge fretboard, adorned with dot inlays and cream-colored binding, adds to the guitar's vintage charm.
-
Resonator Cone: At the heart of the CLR-Chrome is a single 240mm cone with a 30mm height, responsible for its distinctive resonator sound. The maple "biscuit" bridge further enhances tonal transfer from the strings to the cone.
-
Weight: Weighing approximately 4.0 kg, the guitar has a substantial feel, which some players might find heavy during extended sessions.
Sound & Performance
The CLR-Chrome delivers a clear, bright tone with the metallic resonance characteristic of resonator guitars. It's particularly well-suited for slide playing and fingerpicking styles prevalent in blues and folk music. However, some users have noted a "tinny" sound emanating from the cone and sound holes, which might require adjustments or setup tweaks to achieve the desired tone.
Playability
While the guitar offers a comfortable neck profile and smooth fretboard, its glossy finish can make it prone to slipping when played seated. Additionally, the absence of a strap pin on the neck side means players may need to improvise with alternative strap solutions, such as tying it to the headstock, reminiscent of early blues musicians.
The Harley Benton Custom Line CLR-Chrome offers musicians an affordable and visually striking option to explore the world of resonator guitars. While it has some quirks, such as its weight and potential setup needs, it delivers a distinctive tone and classic look that can inspire both beginners and seasoned players alike.
