The Best Benton? | Harley Benton Fusion VS ST Modern Plus
They're both incredible for the price! - imo 😁
If you're torn between the two - let's have a closer look.
A Comparison between the Harley Benton Fusion Vs the NEW ST Modern Plus. With the ST Modern Plus still mostly sold out/out of stock, should you wait or maybe look at a Fusion instead? 🤷♂️
Apologies for the MASSIVE FAIL Re the recording clips of the Fusion. The phasing issue is sorted now, a new switch did the trick - but now the Guitar is gone - So I couldn't re-record the clips 🙈

Random Guitar Chats with Three Chord Dave
Very nice stream. Really enjoyed it (lurking secretly). You're gettin' better every time imo. Please make a video with Colin Scott an turn on the translator. Will probably crash youtube 🙂Have fun with crazy Henning
Weird look and behaviour. Definitely not funny.
Thanks for the feedback mate - much appreciated 😃🙏
Steve, how did u get on with the nut on your js400 mod? Did it fit OK, the graphtec one I mean. I've heard there a funny size o the jet? Thanks
It's been installed by a tech at Agrajag guitars. They've did a fantastic job. I'll need to recheck the nut when I get back from Germany. But didn't notice anything out of the ordinary
I bought 2 guitars, both had issues like bridge wobling, nut being placed 1/4 inch to the left too far and cracks. Don't buy those Harley Bentons one of them is V and plays great but has lots of problems just save up and buy something better
Yeesh - sorry to hear that mate. Thats a bummer 😬
Aologies for any impropriety! 🙏Have a good time on your travels!
None that I can see - cheers mate! 😃🙏
Gear street starts today!!!
Holy moly!!!! I thought I'd made it by just attending gear street.... But now THE Poo Ninja has appeared!!! 🤯🥳 I'm honoured. 😃🙏
@@stevecassidyguitar I’m watching through Bagheera’s eye . Muhahaha
what do you think of the same guitar with the HSS set up ???
I tried the original player series HSS. Very good, but I prefer some of the cheaper alternatives these days. A Jet JS400 with a couple of minor upgrades is a Fender Killer imo 😁👌 I'd still like to try the HSS player ii tho
I love that your right 100 miles away from Cal..... omg there not americans who made it... Can't be good...LOL.... Ridiculous GREAT VIDEO
😜 Thanks mate 😃🙏
Add stainless steel frets to this and it's a masterpiece
Funny you should mention.... I've just had stainless steel frets installed on my Jet JS400. I do not regret it! 😃👌
@@stevecassidyguitar hell yeah
Watching this as I catch up on some TABs I need to get done. Great stream, Steve. The frets on that guitar looked a little shiny, by the way 😁Have a great time at Gear Street 👍 PS... I know exactly the channel you're talking about in your rant.
Cheers mate! Yes indeed super shiney & smooth! 😃👌 Thanks again for the Agrajag recommendation 😎👌
"My partner at the time wanted me to get my eyes tested". Well, that ended well for them, didn't it? Oh, you didn't get bins. My bad
😂🤣👌
When was Germany/Deutschland? What was the store you were going to in Deutschland? Remember, Thomann's, if you can make time. 👍🎸🎶
It's today! 😃 I'm on the road now, on the 2nd bus to the airport after the first one broke down - great start 😂👍 It's Henning Pauly's @eytschpi42 RUclipsr/brand/trade show thing at his house 😃 If I planned better I could have added a day to try and fit in Thomann, but there won't be time this week ☹️
@@stevecassidyguitar Henning is a lot of fun. Enjoy yourself! 👍🎸🎶😊
Good luck at gear street mate, looking forward to the videos etc 🎸🤟🎸🤟🎸🤟
Cheers luv! 😘 Cannae wait 😃 On the road now. On the 2nd bus already, first one broke down - great start! 😂🙈
@@stevecassidyguitar jeez!! All the best 👌
I want to do some midwest songs now
I will never try to stop you - Have fun mate! 😃👍
Have a great time at Hennings, Steve! 🎸🤘🏼🎸👊🏼
Thank ya kindly mate! It's travel day today 🧳✈️ Exciting times!😃👍
Henning loves Puddy Tats ! 😻😻
Prost!
Bless you!
Awesome video have a wonderful day Steve ❤😊
Thank ya kindly mate! It's travel day today 🧳✈️😃👍 Hope you have a great day to sir!
Sorry had to Depart the stream early had to take dog to Veterinarian, spent 2 Harley Bentons 🤣
No apologies necessary mate! 😃👍 Bummer about the pooch - hope they're ok 🤞

53:46 That was comfortably a 🥉 rant, imho mate! Not sure if it was a PB? 💯 sure there’s more to come! 💪👍
😂 Sometimes it feels good to rant and get it off ma chest. Only feels good at the time, then instantly regret putting out negative vibes. My bad 😬
@@stevecassidyguitar Honesty and integrity, mate! RUclips likes authentic and that’s you! 👍
@@derekclacton Aw mate! Thank ya so much 😃🙏
Great bit of banter our chap. Best of luck over in Germany, I'm sure you'll have a blast 👍 Interesting chat about the mortality behind sponsored content and the such. It's a very nuanced topic indeed
Thank ya kindly mate! 😃🙏 The whole sponsored thing is a total minefield. It'll likely be the main focus around Gear street I'd imagine - so, I'm looking to investigate more in depth and learn from the pro's 🤓👍
Got one from fb marketplace about a month ago for 150€! Slapped a Seymour Duncan JB that I’ve had laying on my stuff! I just can’t stop playing it! Took it on the rehearsal she ripped! Man I just can’t comprehend that I’ve got so much guitar for that money! Btw my mini guitar collection contain guitars above the 1000€ mark!
I know - it's crazy eh? 😃 I did a vid la while back of Fender Player HSS Vs Jet JS400 ruclips.net/video/GVidRT0SaLg/видео.htmlsi=G9EBMGNFdGabjho7 Not recommending watching it ... But go have a read of the comments section. Dozens of people rating their Keys higher than their Fenders. Even a couple of people with custom shops! 🤯
@@stevecassidyguitar I’ve seen this video! Matter of fact I’ve checked those guitars at my local guitar store, and I kinda liked them but they didn’t have them in stock (guess why?😝) so I’ve found one on marketplace! However Before I bought it I’ve checked all your videos as they are objectively the most complete reviews on YT! I’ve had a mim standard strat (MY 2010) with the N3 noiseless set I’ve put a lot of effort to make this guitar to an enjoyable playing level!! They definitely they don’t even come close when it comes to comparing them!
@@tony_dms350 wow! High praise indeed mate! Both for Jets and my wee vids 😜 Thank ya kindly sir 😃🙏
@@stevecassidyguitar I’m just telling the facts! You’re welcome my friend keep up the good work and keep on pickin!!!!🔥🤘🏻

32:08 aw naw Deirdre comment made 😮
It's uncanny! 😂👍
@@stevecassidyguitar enjoy your time away. I missed the stream and watched catchup due to overtime commitments. 🤷🏼♂️
Damn, I just bought my JS400 this spring and changed tremolo, locking tuners and alnico pickups. And they made 480, that have it all from the box… I like purple one.
Ah... Bummer. Well hopefully you enjoyed the process 😃🤞 I still prefer the JS400 for the roasted maple fretboard (just in case I didn't mention that 8 times 😜)
Mate am impressed with they geggs 👓 is that Deirdre Barlow’s old patio windows 🪟 🪟fae the 1980’s 😂
Ha! Not far off eh? 😂🤓 Wanted to get something close to the fake ones I'm already wearing 😜
I really enjoyed the Stream tonight - Thanks for putting up with my rants! 😂🙈🙏
Nice one, really enjoyed it as well.
@@gedellis701 Aw Thank ya mate! It was a bit easier with the topic and gave me time for more rants 😂 Got a lot off ma chest tonight 😂👍
Ha! I've got a 1983 He-Man still in it's box... the bubble is cracked and it's got a price sticker on it so apparently not very desirable to collectors but I still want to sell it to buy a guitar! What a coincidence! Looking at a used PRS Zach Myers that is very pretty.
Seems like a fair trade to me 😜👌
JT-30 Gold - yep, pickguard looks like it should be on an F1 car more than a T style guitar.
Ha! Glad I'm not the only one that thinks it's a bit off 😜👍
the never mentioned reality of guitars is does it stay in tune? locking tuners DO NOThold the string in tune,its just a lazy way of stringing a guitar.. the shredder making silly bugger noises only goes for a minute...the nut gets the blame a lot, but really, any old guitar roadie will tell y, the new string tensions will WANDER up n down , y have t stretch each string and properly wind in the old way to get a reliable tuning setup that will handle mannish bends and chug, the best ive found so far is ibanez/gotoh zeropoint trem , its floating in BOTH DIRECTIONS, once you get it stretched in ,its gunna stay in tune even if you get all albert king on it...i had a prestige ibanez ,it could NOT stay in tune, stringlocks?nup. wilkinson? made of old cans and sinkers.
I mentioned in the individual review of the ST Modern that this one does not stay in tune. I don't think locking tuners are Lazy. they're definitely more convenient, but for me, they're a godsend if I break a string at a gig and need to change it rapid 😁👍 I've never made any claims they're better for holding tuning 🤷♂️
@@stevecassidyguitar yes ...i agree with what youve stated in your response..as far as breakin string at gig ,i always had another ax .for me anyhow, if it wont hold tune its basically useless.doesnt matter if its a prs ,a gibson, or a player series..but i have been told that i do punish guitars, soif i get one i trust,ill refret, refit bridges, pickups. saves wastin money on guitars ill just wreck like that jet 850 and the prestige.all th best x
Got it yesterday. Having problems when i change my strings to 9-46 .. the action are high to avoid fret buzz. Any tips?
Sorry mate. Hard to judge without seeing it and taking some measurements 😬 It depends where the buzzing is happening too. If it's on the lower frets, could be the nut or neck relief if it's on the higher frets it could be the bridge saddle height or a combination of both 😬🤷♂️ I'd probably start by loosening the truss rod a bit, to add more relief (this will make your "action" higher) then try to take it down a bit at the saddles. Also if you've changed gauge, the bridge could be at more of an angle. If that's the case you might need to adjust the trem springs. Take a note of any changes you make and if they improve/worsen the feel/buzz. For what it's worth... I have all of my guitars set up with low action and there is still buzzing. But that's just the price I'm happy to pay for lower action 😬🤷♂️
@@stevecassidyguitar thanks alot mate, i think it worth it if im the one who set up my guitar. Instead of bringing it to my local shop. Thanks again ..
@@johnvregantena159 I'd definitely recommend doing better research than listening to me though 😂 Phil McKnight's channel is fantastic for guitar set up stuff 😎👍
Watching the rerun 🙂 I don't mind you don't read all the poll comments, and I don't mind if you don't read all the comments in the live chat. I think you should just pick the ones you think is interesting. And I can't wait for your #42gssix content. please do a daily update as a shorts video here or on instagram... If you get the time 🙂
Thankks for watching the catch up mate! 😃🙏 and thank ya for the feedback. I have all the best intentions of vlogging at 42GS - I'll do my very best to not get too excited and forget 😂🙈
An excellent and honest review. Congrats!
Thank ya kindly mate 😃🙏
Hi Steve, did you have to do some kind of routing for the Gotoh tremolo to fit in?
I had my tech do the work. It didn't need routed. But... You do need to file away about 1-2mm in the corner of the trem block cavity, so there's enough clearance for the trem arm barrel to move freely. I had to do the same thing when I installed a Gotoh 510 on a Fender body 👍 Hope that helps
@@stevecassidyguitar ah that shouldn't be too much work. I'm thinking about getting one JS400 like yours and slapping in a Vega trem, although the thought of the tremolo being more expensive than the guitar itself is haunting me. lol
@@greedbc Ha! I hear ya mate 😁 I've just had this guitar modded even further. Had it refretted with Stainless Steel Frets 😂🙈 Someone on the Jet Guitars club facebook page also recently put a Vegatrem on thiers 😎👍
@@stevecassidyguitar holy cow, SS frets? Now that's a proper upgrade! I still am deciding between the Jet or the HB ST Modern Plus for a modding platform. Or maybe scrap all that and go straight for a Ibanez AZ prestige. What is your opinion on this?
I dont know, the only thing that makes it really stand out is the roasted neck with ss frets, which in itself can had for abouz half the guitars price if you know where to look. Even with a proper fender headstock. The rest is as basic as can be. Not worth the price tag
Comparing the two necks, is the Modern Plus thinner? Because I feel too "chunky" the Fusion one.
It is a wee bit thinner and flatter with it being a D shape Vs C shape. But it's not like Ibanez or Charvel thin. Chunkier than that but feels slightly thinner than a Fender modern C to my hands. Hope that helps 😬👍
@@stevecassidyguitar Yes this helps Stivi! Because basically you said it's not like Charvel, and I'm a lot into Jacksons necks who are basically like the charvels 🤣
that baritone looks kind of sick. i'm not a huge shredder axe person as you know but Chapman guitars have always had a nice vibe
Yeah the baritone does look cool..I've got a soft spot for Bari's 😁👍 Finally got round to filming the old chapman hybrid review, but it won't be out until we'll after the gear street stuff 😬
lol this has been on my watch later for ages, it's such a mess i'm only watching this now
Ha! No worries - thanks for watching 😃🙏
@@stevecassidyguitar yeah i keep hitting near 5,000 on my watch later lmao. was going through my older saved vids to clear stuff off. i need to make multiple different sorts of watch laters
I have the old harley benton fusion II HSH its a great guitar but the pickups are kinda meh. Recently i changed the frets on my old takamine gx 200t and now im thinking selling the benton and getting some SSS strat maybe jet js 300 or 400 with aftermarket SSS pickguard and some tonerider pickups.
Yes mate - that's the way to do it... Go for the JS400 and convert it to SSS . Well worth it for the JS400's sculpted neck heel and better 2 point trem (imo) 😁👍
@@stevecassidyguitar Yeah thats what i was thinking. The sculpted heel and the trem is worth the extra cost of pickguard and pickups over the js-300
Despite the looking, Do you think its worth one of those instead Jet JS400?
I personally prefer the neck on the Jet JS400. But If you like the specs of the ST modern and the neck, and you can get one without issues... It's pretty hard to beat imo 😁👍
My HB Fusion 3 HSS is my favourite guitar, but it doesn't sound like a strat. I have put Tonerider single coils in it and a Shijie bridge humbucker, but it still doesn't sound like a strat because of the direct mount. The HB st modern is a really nice guitar however the jumbo SS frets are disappointingly low. One of the best things about the Fusion is the high frets. I will also need to get the ST modern plekked as there are high frets on it. My unexpected current fave strat is an Eart with Entwistle pickups. The Entwistle AS57 is a great pickup and works well with the Eart.
Great recommendation for the Eart - Cheers! 😃👍 I had an Eart Corsair NK-C3 (x3 🙈) And wasn't a fan of the stock pickups either. That particular EART has feels like the same size fret wire as on the ST Modern too. I think the Fusions might be advertised as medium Jumbo - But they feel bigger than that to me. Fender medium jumbo is about as big as I'm comfortable with
@@stevecassidyguitar ruclips.net/video/0h2aKgMUw4A/видео.htmlsi=nNzmCqzTgY9w4SpH I uploaded a demo of the AS57
The fender sounds better
It's all subjective innit? But to be totally honest... I had a huge fail in recording the audio for this one 😬 I recorded both guitar signals too hot, and ended up with clipping on all the sound samples 🙈 So it wasn't an ideal comparison in the first place, My bad - lessons learned 😅👍
If I had to choose between the two it would have to be the ST Modern Plus for me. I have a thing about pickups mounted directly in the body like the Fusion's - needs a pickguard or pickup surrounds.
Looks wise - I totally agree, I prefer the more traditional strat look too 😎👍
I am the proud owner off a fusion 3 strat, changed Pick-ups and trimpotts, now its my nr. One guitar to play! Thanx for posting! 🎯
Awesome mate! 😃👍 That's how I think of these Guitars - fantastic mod platforms. Can end up with an unbeatable guitar 😃👌
