Harley Benton HB-40R

This product is cheaper compared to any amp product. It served the purpose. Sound is nice and this product is for for smart people. This product is not only for practicing but can be used also in gigs.

If you have a nice amp and very expensive amp and you are using a sound fx, probably there is no use of your expensive amp. sound fx can make your cheap amp sounds good to, and sounds like very expensive product.

One thing that this product lack of, is there is no reverb. but I did not see also in the market or other brand that has the same as this price and has a builtin reverb feature...

Overall I'm very happy for this amp as with in the budget. I recommend this product to those having a low budget.

This "handy" light & loud budget amp is my ideal stage partner.

Light & small to carry, a great clean sound for maybe the ever adaptable acoustic guitar, or the clean electric guitar, and really nice breath takingly clean for P'90 p'ups.
Distortion is usable, but needs careful knob adjustment to find a sweet spot (it is there though) and I'm warming to it as the speaker inside eases it's new stiffness. The 'line out' to the main PA in case of need for more sound actually does its job nicely, works perfectly well with my sound system.
I also plug into the "backing tracks in", a 1 channel mic mixer which makes the mb49r into a complete (vocals and guitar) system, well loud enough for small bar/coffee house gigs.
I have had enough with "digital download disappointment" sounds, this mb40r is a true guitarists amp.
Very good eq range too.
I have used/owned some big name quality guitar amps & have been 'guitaring for 61yrs now, but this little beauty is so refreshing to use. I'm finding this price range and size of guitar amps really coming to life recently. I even got the 20w version of this amp for "that small bar in town".

The cost of fueling up "diesel" my gig van is 1-1/2 times the cost of this guitar amp. I Love them:-)

I'm using this as a practice amp, mostly for jazz so not so much scream and twang and although I'm not playing it out, it certainly has enough poke if I want to. This is a light, reasonably compact and sturdy amp and despite it's weight it doesn't sound thin - it gives a clear tone even at low volumes.

The reverb is clean and responsive and the overdrive channel gives a wide range. The equalisation is fine. The line out and phones socket is a 3.5mm rather than the 6.35mm (1/4") so you might need an adapter.

Playing through effects boxes comes out well too. It's not a massive speaker but there's a socket for you to plug one in if you want to. It's hard to beat it at the price. Very pleased with it.
