Harley Benton Mods! (From Harley Benton to Homer Benton)

A Harley Benton TE-40 goes from Harley to Homer with a new finish. Not sure what happened during the sound samples but some of the footage is a bit off but I'm not sitting through another 10 hour rendering so that my terrible playing can be seen in greater detail.
This was a lot of fun and i recommend any enthusiasts try something like this for themselves!
I hope you enjoy this video, check out the other videos on my page if you do.

the pickups i'd guess are the HAF set (whole lotta humbucker copies). those come stock in a fair few bentons i think

[@DaveViner]

That's the ones!

[@BadMotivator66]

@@DaveVineryeah they're decent PAFs but not much for modern clarity!

[@DaveViner]

Yeah, for sure, just felt "muted" if that makes sense? Lol

[@BadMotivator66]

@@DaveViner yeah as if the tone was slightly rolled back

[@charlesnix6066]

Would u recommend the HB Fusion HH or the HB TE-40 with DNAfx GiT? I WANT the Fusion but I feel I will get more bang for the buck with the TE-40/DNA combo. What do u guys think?

[@DaveViner]

I'm not overly familiar with all the Harley Benton models but i understand the fusion models are well spec'd instruments. What is the rest of your set up like?

[@charlesnix6066]

@@DaveViner right now I only have a Firefly 338 with a Orange 20RT.

[@DaveViner]

So the DNAfx would expand your tonal capabilities. Do you want more tones and effects OR are you just after a new guitar?
If the tones and effects are needed the go for the TE40 and DNAfx route.
If you're happy with the sounds from your amp but just want a different guitar go for the Fusion.
✌

[@charlesnix6066]

@@DaveViner excellent advice! I guess I want a little of both! I want a new guitar of course but I also want lots of tones! I ordered the TE-40 but not the DNA yet.

Awesome, enjoy!
