Harley Benton Agufish STD Signature BK

I was eyeing a Harley Benton to buy myself for Christmas for a while. The choice was between an Amarok-6 and Guitar Max signature Fusion. But then, I saw it. The Agufish custom signature. I knew I HAD to get it when I saw it, but unfortunately they were out of stock when I got all the money necessary. Then I decided to get this one. I was praying for it to arrive in one piece and good condition, knowing how HB QC can be. I was stunned. It feels and sounds better than any guitar from the big G I have played which is about 10 guitars. This one came pretty much perfectly set up out of the box - action is to my liking, the neck is straight and the guitar is intonated.
BUT: There are some pieces of dust under the finish here and there. The frets are level but are scratchy. And the biggest problem for me is that the saddle for the 6th (thickest) string is all the way back, and I am afraid that I won’t be able to properly intonate it with thicker strings like .056 or .059.
Outside of that - the guitar looks amazing, feels amazing, the fretboard is gorgeous and the neck is perfect. Also the tuners feel similar to gotoh.
8/10, would recommend but be prepared to re setup and polish the frets

Honestly, I’m extremely impressed with this guitar. I can barely describe how much I like it. I’ve never seen a guitar arrive this well prepared and ready to play straight out of the box.
I ordered it around 1.5–2.5 months ago and this time used DHL instead of UPS. Delivery took a bit longer, but the customs process for Kazakhstan and CIS countries was much smoother and easier overall. Everything was solved through the local postal service without major issues.
When I opened the guitar, I was honestly surprised. Everything was perfectly clean and well assembled — no scratches, no chips, no defects at all. The guitar arrived in excellent condition. Maybe some people would slightly adjust the truss rod because the strings felt a little high for my personal preference, but that’s already individual setup and personalization. Overall, it was perfectly playable right out of the box.
The first thing that really impressed me was the sound. For this price range, the tone is incredibly big, powerful, and full. It immediately feels like a completely different level of instrument. The sound is tight, clear, and very enjoyable to play.
The build quality is also excellent. All the details feel carefully made and well finished. Even the factory strings were surprisingly good.
The instrument fully matches the description and honestly deserves 5 out of 5. I’m genuinely impressed and very happy with this guitar. You can simply take it out of the box and start playing immediately.
