Budget Telecaster with a Filtertron Twist - What's the Catch? - Harley Benton TE90 FLT Review
Рет қаралды 68,624
Күн бұрынIf you are looking for something a little bit different, the TE-90FLT Black Blast from Harley Benton sure ticks a lot of boxes. It's cheap, it sounds good and it feels great. What's the catch?

You complain about the tuners feeling stiff. In case You don't know: The Philips screw in the tuning knobs is not only there to hold them in place, but to adjust them to your taste. Just loosen the screw a little bit, and the tuner turns easier. Another Tipp: most cheap machine heads need some breaking in. Before you change strings next time, take a string winder and tune the old strings a dozen turns down and up again, just some fast turning, no need for accuracy ;-). After that, the machine heads usually turn much smoother.

Nice review Andy, it looks and sounds great. Unfortunately, I have just,2 weeks ago, bought a cheap tele by K & K whoever they are. Either the neck was routed too deep or the neck itself is too shallow, I had to put a 3.5mm shim in to be able to set it up! I have also just had my favourite guitar refretted. If I was to buy this one I think I would have to stowaway on the next rocket to space and blast off from the planet! 😎🎙🎸✅

Had enjoyed reviewing this one even though it did not reach me in a playable state. Also the blue burst for me has now faded to a green burst 1 year later. Let us know if the colour turns to a new shade due to light / sunshine. Even after all that, really enjoy the guitar still. Planning on upgrading the tuners to reverse hipshots and want to attach a bigsby style trem system but unsure on what will fit on it.

I’m presently blasting off with the Green Blast, and loving it! I think HB have purposely gone for a Marmite guitar, hence the reverse neck and Filtertrons. They already make lots of great ‘standard’ guitars that will nicely ‘fit in’. This feels like an alternative for guys who already have that covered. This is my fourth HB guitar and they all sound usefully - and markedly - different from each other. Best value out there. Thanks for the great review!

The fltr t vw is maybe the most impressive at $157, like yours the neck is incredible. The edges are rolled 😳 the pickups are very nice. All 8 that I have are bitchin , I've got 45 guitars with most of the big names in my collection... the last 9 guitars I have bought have been a g&l fallout and 8 HB'S.

I’ve had the older, white (non-blast-off) version of this guitar for about a year now. It’s fantastic. I play it all the time. Great neck, great pickups. My version has a different set of tuners, and they work perfectly and the guitar stays in tune like a champ. Highly recommended. The only issue I’ve had is one of the string trees popping out. Easy fix.

@@TheGuitarGeek I agree with the comment above. Feel-wise, would you prefer this sandblast or the (rather newly reviewed) daphne blue SG with Gotoh tuners? I know those Gotohs are quite game changers and I guess well worth the €50 gap, but I was mainly referring to body, neck and finishes. Tone-wise, those pups are so different from the "Tesla" it's like comparing apples and oranges, I guess. For heavy, thick, Hetfield-esque riffing (and the like) I guess there's no contest, but I'd love to hear some Johnny Marr repertoire through that Tele! Keep up the good work, btw :)

I've wanted a Filtertron guitar for a while now - just based on how they sound, I think picking between single coil, humbucker, or filtertron style is a complete no-brainer. But Gretsches cost a mint and mostly look very country-rockabilly, so I was looking into buying a cheap Harley Benton or similar and modding in Filtertrons. And then it turns out HB make a perfectly solid piece with twin Filtertron-clones for €199, and it looks absolutely smashing to boot. Welp, I guess there goes that money. Blast off!

Blast Off! I've had mine in Greenblast for a couple of months and it's now my number 2 (by just a small margin) behind my Harley Benton CST-24T P90. I agree with everything you've said about it, pros and cons. With pedals and the right amp settings you can get rock, even metal sounds, but where it shines for me is in the cleans. It plays so well and easy it's just addictive. Tuners are the big negative but I can live with them. Also, the fretboard tends to pick up dirt and gunk from the hands and the grain tends to turn dark, so it needs a cleaning quite often. I'm in love with it though. It's also chambered and very light, also slightly smaller than a traditional tele body (a bit smaller than my TE-70 RW9). Blast it all, it's so good Andy!!!

I didn't hear you mention the one major feature that contributes to that airy sound. The lower half of the body is chambered. I have this in the same color, under the pickguard and the oversized control cavity is hollow. To me this setup serves a function for ambient styles, The Edge, Andy Summers, 80's Alex Lifeson but also gives off a Johnny Winter vibe.

I disagree with the statement "not for classic rock". With the reverb on, I was hearing Rush and Pink Floyd sounds. 👍👍👍😉😉😉

I have always wanted to buy one of these TE90 models (since 4/5 years), but i just don't like the reversed headstock, as well as the (sort of) maple fretboard, i wonder if or when Thomann will decide to propose this model in a more conventionnal configuration, each his own after all
