Harley Benton JA-60CC Lake Placid Blue

You will not get better Jazzmaster under 400$. It's unbelievable how good guitar this is. The colour is gorgeous! It's much more brighter than on photos, and the glitter is so charming that you won't be able to look away.
It's factory setup was pretty good. About 2.3mm on 12 fret on the 6'th string. I have not tried to change it yet, but from what I saw it won't be hard to work on that.
Sound is fantastic. It's much more better and deeper from a Vintage v65 or Squier Jazzmaster that I player, and yet it's still cheaper. I wouldn't be suprised if Thomann/Harley Benton were losing money with every sold piece.
I've checked this guitar inch by inch, and still I was only able to find minor flaws, like: a small piece of crude neck (it has a little bit more texture that It's supposed to have) only on one side, stained strings (that's kind off interesting), neck plate is covered in micro stains.
This guitar has a real potential. The fret work is legendary, not a singe sharp edge. Strings slide without any (ANY!!!!) problems, it's just like they slide on their own.

I am truly shocked by the quality of this guitar. No joke.

I've owned lots of Harley Bentons, many of them came with oddball QC problems but I'm not exaggerating when I say there is none of that here and the model I received was flawless. Aesthetically the neck is GORGEOUS, feels so smooth, the finish is amazing, and the blue colour is a looker!

No sharp fret ends, nut seems to be cut decently, was setup really good for E standard right out of the box. I played it for hours and had no complaint with the setup. The tuning stability was rock solid. I genuinely cannot come up with a single complaint. Even the pickups aren't microphonic like I was expecting, I've been playing mostly the bridge pickup on my Boss Katana MK2 head and 4x12 cab with the presets I use for Thrash and Doom and while there is "hum" like all single coils, they're not reacting horribly and even sound exceptionally competent and usable to someone who's normally and EMG 81 guy!! This is a personal bias comment but even that the guitar has only 21 frets has actually made me more inspired to create music as I have "less to distract me" and let's face it, I'm usually playing in E minor or A Major and generally never go higher than fret 20 when soloing.

I've fallen in love, and I can see myself getting this exact guitar again in other colours for different tunings. To anyone on the fence, if you're looking for a guitar with rock solid tuning stability, the most versatile set of stock pickups I've ever tried, 25.5" scale with a tuneomatic bridge (which is unique in my opinion for JM style guitars) and no nonsense features in between to distract you from making music, then I strongly wholly recommend this guitar!

@Thomann, I really hope you keep this model in stock and production for a really long time, and that the QC stays this good because this is genuinely one of the best guitars I have ever played and probably for the best price I have ever payed for an instrument. Well done!
