while they "might" be made in the same factory...................they probably arent made to the same spec-sheet/standards/QC/ exactly the same materials
just because you do, doesn't mean you should.
spent another £30 or £40 on a good setup .it’ll do me fine bit of “wild horses” “wanted DOA” “every rose “ “patience “ etc

The reason I preferred the Harley Benton to the Sigma was the specs rather than quality or sound, TBH.
Sigma 000 guitars aren't quite built to true 000-28 spec:
- Scale length is 645mm instead of 632mm
- Nut width is 42.9mm instead of 45mm
- No soft-V neck profile
I guess they make them a bit more 'normal' to give them mainstream appeal and save money on tooling.
I wanted proper 000-28 specs so my new guitar would be significantly different from my dreadnought. The Harley Benton had the right specs so I went for that.
One advantage of Sigma though is resale value. I'm sure my £230 HB is now worth about the same as an empty crisp packet!
