Wat een gitaar (voor dat geld)
Jan Rorive 13.10.2020
Na een slechte ervaring met de HBO-600NT met mesachtige frets en ruw als een vijl, nu een CLD-15MCE besteld gebaseerd op de vele positieve beoordelingen . En terecht. Een fantastisch ogende gitaar en geen enkel punt te vinden waar ik kritiek op zou kunnen hebben. Action en intonatie perfect en hij klinkt fantastisch. Hoewel pas een dag in huis ben ik ervan overtuigd dat ik er veel plezier aan ga beleven. Afgelopen zomer ben ik begonnen met fingerpicking en daar zal hij het meest voor gebruikt worden.

Wat een ongelooflijk fijne gitaar.
Voor iemand die geen poespas wil. de gitaar oogt sober en is dat ook, maar wel ongelooflijk mooi.

Ik gebruik deze gitaar voornamelijk thuis.
Het geluid is warm en vol.
De afwerking is echt niets op aan te merken, geen enkel puntje kunnen vinden.

Let wel op dat je nergens tegen aan stoot, want bij mij chipte de lak meteen. Heb het nog wel kunnen herstellen.

Het enige dat mij opvalt zijn de tuners, ze doen hun werk goed en houden de gitaar goed op tuning, maar sommige werken nogal stroef. Ik heb hier nog niet naar gekeken, maar kan denk ik met een beetje olie worden verholpen.

Conclusie na een half jaar dagelijks gebruik: Een fantastiche en mooie Harley Benton uit de custom Line. Mijn eerste en zeker niet mijn laaste.

Pros and Cons
Kezz 28.10.2021
I purchased this guitar a month ago, as the better HB model I wanted wasn't available for about 3 months (and still isn't!!). It had plenty of rave reviews and, as I only needed it as a stop gap during a prolonged stay overseas that's keeping me from my other guitars, I decided to jump right in.

I've purchased several items from Thomann down the years, and remain totally committed to their excellent service/pricing. This guitar arrived at my door in Ireland within 5 days of ordering - which is incredible considering Covid. Packaging and protection were great.

Pros: Out of the box, I was immediately struck by its Tayloresque beauty.
The top and body are a deep Mahogany which resonates beautifully.
Finishes to the body, neck, and frets are very good, so all in all, it's a lovely instrument to hold, look at, and hear!

Beyond the tuner, I've not used the pre-amp, so can't comment on electronic performance, but I would add that the battery is easily accessible for replacement - at the rear of the body. I'll move onto the cons now, as there are a few.

Cons:
As many have commented, the tuning pegs are not very responsive. They look fine in chrome finished metal, but they don't operate smoothly and are a bit of a pain if you use plenty of alternate tunings. Joni Mitchell would probably have trashed it in an hour.

The on board electronic tuner is basic, probably with that 5% +/- accuracy, which means that the tuning between 2 strings can regularly be 10% out, so a decent ear is needed or a decent tuning app is required to make it ring - but once in, ring it certainly does. It doesn't time out and switch off automaically either, so the handily accessible battery compartment came in use far too soon!

On playing, it was immediately apparent that the action was set to the higher end of acceptable, and the strings (which were fine in terms of quality) were a gauge higher than I normally like to play. I dropped the action half a millimetre by shaving a mill off the saddle and restrung with 11-52 gauge Phosphor Bronze Elixirs. That's made a huge improvement to the playability. I can slide up and down the neck now without grating my fingertips to shreds. Beginners take note, as there's nothing worse than learning on a finger killer. If you find the 'action' is too high, check out vids on YouTube to see how to improve the set up on your guitar. The out of the box playability was no better than a 2.5 out of 5 for me. It's above 4 now.

I should add that the fingerboard was filthy, too. It took 2 days to wash the black staining out of my shredded fingertips! Obviously I cleaned that off when restringing, and it's fine now.

There is one truly horrible feature, and that is the cheap and nasty strap button on the rear. The very first time I went to attach a strap, the pathetic plastic button just fell out of its hole! It literally is a peg pushed into a hole with nothing to hold it in place, not even a spot or two of glue! Whoever thought that was a good idea needs to have a serious rethink about their career. Luckily, I was sitting down at the time, otherwise the guitar could easily have fallen to the ground and disintegrated.

There is no strap button at the base of the neck, which is probably a good thing considering what happened at the rear! A couple of decent strap buttons would elevate the user experience considerably - as this bit of 'cheap and tacky' besmirches what is otherwise an excellent guitar at this price-point. I think most would willingly pay a couple of bucks more for a reasonable pair of metal strap buttons, properly affixed.

Finally, the scratch 'plate' is a cheap 'stick-on' and would best be supplied as a separate item - on a 'stick it on if you want to' basis. It's nothing to worry about though.

Conclusion:
In a way, I wish I'd had the time to wait for the higher end CLC-650SM-CE VS in Solid Wood - and I'm now tortured in a 'what might have been' kind of way. I don't know what is causing the hold-up, perhaps demand outstripping supply? Who knows, but needs must I suppose.

All in all, this is a great instrument for a beginner - though take heed of the strap button warning and the possibility of additional set-up. Intermediates will be fine too. At this price, the pluses outweigh the cons. Above that, of you can wait for delivery, go higher. An HB guitar at twice the price of this one is going to be really something!
