I'm selling a Harley Benton CST24 hard tail, that was bought as a bit of a project. Includes Iron Gear Dirty Torque and Blues Engine pickups (but I'll include the Roswell ones as well). It was a B-Stock from Thomann, for the only reason being the dry fretboard and the fact that the finish on the fretboard isn't quite 100%. Excellent condition otherwise.

Mods completed:

Iron gear pickups as above (non coil split/tap as I replaced the pots and didn't have a split one to hand)
Wilkinson Bridge
Locking Tuners
Wire wool on the back of the neck for a satin feel
Sprayed the Truss Rod Cover black
Knobs changed for cosmetic purposes

Whilst it was a bit of a project and the fretboard isn't the greatest I've seen, it is actually an excellent guitar to play. Low action, comfortable neck and holds tuning extremely well. Currently tuned to D Standard.

£100 plus delivery as I need the space. That was pretty much the cost of the parts and you get a guitar included!

    That's an absolute bargain. I'm strapped for cash now, but I'm in South Wales and would love to drive up and grab it...

  • It is!

    It is actually a really great playing guitar and I’m only moving it on to make space as the collection needs trimming.

    You would be welcome to come and try it though!

    I have a similar one, this is a bargain and I can't believe no one has snapped this up, have a bump.

  • It really is!

    It is getting to the point where I’ll just keep it an leave as an alternative tuning, but could do with the space in the rack back.

    Perhaps, you should consider accepting trades? ;)

    On the A470? :open_mouth: 


    My route from Pembrokeshire would be almost as tedious but I have business pending with a well-known forum hoarder who lives East of Telford. 
    You say, atom bomb. I say, tin of corned beef.

    There was something in the tap water, I grew up a few hundred yards from him and have a similar problem
