Harley Benton ST-Travel – Small, Light, and Cheap!
Manufacturer Harley Benton presented an excellent option for the traveling musician or traveler who wants a travel guitar in need. Although the model is not very new, it is still very interesting, especially considering its ridiculous price.
The new model reduces the dimensions of the body to a minimum, keeping the contour only of the pickguard. This reduces weight and size while maintaining a traditional scale for a Strat type guitar, ie 25.5 “inches or 648mm.
