Harley Benton Single Cut DIY Kit Build with Candy Paint +Review +Demo Song

Күн бұрын

I'm trying out candy paint on an inexpensive DIY Harley Benton Single Cut guitar kit.
Watch the whole building process. I'm also doing a review of the kit, share what I've learned about using Candy Paint and play a guitar solo cover of "Don't cry" by Guns N' Roses.
The choice of colors is inspired by Christmas decoration.
Enjoy

Superb. Wouldn't be Christmas without a Christmas striped Les Paul! It also sounds fine on neck pickup, middle, bridge, and takes distortion well. Nice demo! 🤘

That guitar looks awesome! I agree with the probably better with a bit more red. I started with Harley benton guitars and i love em. Maybe a big advantage i never played anything else.

inexpensive guitars have gotten a lot better in recent years. I guess the manufacturing in China and Indonesia has gotten more modern. Expensive guitars feel nicer and are more reliable, but the difference isn't that huge anymore than e.g. 15 years ago.

Dude! That is super cool! I kinda want to put glitter and lights all over that guitar. I still feel like I am years away from getting on with my own refinishing and painting projects, sadly. But this is inspiring stuff!

thank's man. But maybe you could try out a project next summer (now it's too cold outside for the spray paint)

I had to censor my practical effect at the beginning to make it youtube friendly. It was just raspberries in my palm, of course ;)

¿Would you try to make another Harley Benton Les Paul Kit with the "Frankenstrat" paint job?.

I might do that with an EVH Wolfgang guitar, but I need to finish some other projects first :)

Hi Georg, what kind of tape did you use to cover the binding? Tnx! 👍🏻

3 жыл бұрын

it's called "Fine line green tape" on the specialistpaints.com online shop. But it can be surely found elsewhere as "fine line masking tape" or similar

11:09 so you already broke the pickup switcher ? :3 Anyhow i'm wondering you don't think it's worth it to throw in some more expensive pickups ?

Very good eye. The pickup switch broke while traveling, i didn't protect it well enough. I think the pickups are alright. Brand name pickups might be as expensive as the while kit.
