Large, modern, and elegant

The Harley Benton CLJ-503CE WN features a Jumbo-style body complete with a solid spruce top and an elegant high-gloss natural finish together with modern touches that include a cutaway and a pickup. This instrument combines classic looks with a sound that is even fuller than may be immediately apparent, thus giving players everything they have come to expect from a contemporary acoustic guitar. Gone are the days when a comparatively low purchase price and high-quality looks were incompatible, as the Harley Benton CLJ-503CE WN capably demonstrates: With its walnut back and sides, mahogany neck, and attractively-grained ovangkol fingerboard, there can be no doubt that this guitar is designed to be an eyecatcher wherever it is played.

Power and resonance combined

The resonant spruce top of the Harley Benton CLJ-503CE WN features advanced scalloped X-bracing, which comprises a cross-shaped system of wooden braces that have been planed into an arched shape, a technique that was developed to increase volume and add a fuller low-end response to the sound. The block fingerboard inlays and the soundhole rosette are made from a combination of mother-of-pearl and abalone that is also tastefully mirrored by the mother-of-pearl machine head buttons. In addition, the neck and body (both front and back) are adorned with white binding, which further enhances the guitar's classy looks and, since it is made from ABS, also provides increased resistance to shocks and scratches. Last but not least, the CLJ-503CE WN comes with a set of sealed machine heads that will ensure many years of maintenance-free operation.

Playability at its finest

Players making the transition from electric guitar should feel comfortable with the Harley Benton CLJ-503CE WN straight away, particularly if they are used to playing ST-style models, since this acoustic also features the same 648mm (25.5") scale length and 43mm (1.7") nut width found on the latter. The onboard Fishman preamp system, which comes complete with an integrated tuner, also makes this instrument a good choice for guitarists who need the authentic steel-string guitar sound even in environments that require a little more volume. Lead players in turn will appreciate the guitar's generous cutaway, which provides unrestricted access to all 20 frets, and the CLJ-503CE WN's impressive price-performance ratio is completed by the Adamas-brand strings with which the guitar comes as standard.

More than just a beginner's guitar

Whether it's an intimate jam around the campfire, a set of Rock classics, or a singer-songwriter performance, the Harley Benton CLJ-503CE WN is designed to deliver a comfortable playing feel and an impressive sound. The guitar is easily loud enough for practising unplugged, while its onboard preamp system means it can be played through an amplifier when gigging in smaller venues or even through a PA on larger stages, so there is no need for a microphone. For those who plan to take the Harley Benton CLJ-503CE WN on the road with them, the Thomann Western Guitar Case (article no. 122212) is the ideal accessory.
