Harley Benton Fusion-IV HH LH RW FR WM

As an owner of some great rock/hardrock guitars from Jackson & Charvel, I wanted this guitar for its apparent versatility. To have an instrument that I can use to play different musical styles. In this regard, the Fusion IV does not disappoint! The Tesla pickups are great, with switches to get an enourmous amount of possible sounds... From clean jazz to heavy metal sounds, this pickups can do almost everything.

The body is very comfortable and light, and I realy appreciate the compound radius. A very premium feature for this price-point, and something I've grown to love on my Jacksons and Charvels. I would have liked it even more if the neck was a little bit thinner... But that's something I can get used to.

Everyhing is super high-quality on this guitar: The build, the feel, the pickups, the tuners, the frets and also the Floyd Rose 1000, which provides an incredible tuning stability.

In conclusion I can honestly say that this guitar gives you much more bang for your buck than you would normaly expect at this price-point! It's a great 'workhorse' you can use to play almost any music style, and a real professional instrument. Highly recommended...

As a lefty, there's 1 thing however that I would ask of Harley Benton:
Please don't use LOGARITMIC pots for the volume and tone knobs...
When connected for a left-hander, the logarimic pots work REVERSED, which feels absolutely wrong. You have to turn the knobs almost all the way down before you hear any difference in volume/tone. Most manufacturers get this wrong. I would be perfectly happy if they use simple 'LINEAR' pots, which give a much more natural curve...

Also: thank you Harley Benton for not forgetting us south-paws!
