Default Harley Benton CLF 200 NT

Hey everyone. I was looking for an acoustic to travel around Asia with, that would be good enough to play shows with but cheap enough to bash it about and take it to the beach.
I opted for a Harley Benton CLF 200 NT and I'm very pleased I did. Thing is I couldn't find any decently recorded videos on YT to hear the guitar before buying it. So I decided to do one myself. Just in case any of you were wondering about the guitar here it is.

The guitar looks and sounds great and was set up perfect straight out the box. Well worth considering for a cheap but great guitar.
Cheers

Really nice video, thanks for posting it. Now you've got me thinking about one for travel. Could you describe the neck and how it feels, I've got small hands and hesitate to order something without being able to personally play it first.

Hey maddchase
The neck is really comfortable, nice round C shape, not too thick, not too thin. I have big ish hands but don't like necks too thick on acoustics as I do a lot of moving around the fretboard on solo gigs and can't be arsed to fight with a baseball bat neck. I can really recommend this guitar. I'm sat here playing it now, it's a treat especially for the price.

Cheers
