An offset classic with a modern twist

front of the electric guitar Harley Benton JA-60CC Shell Pink

The Harley Benton JA-60CC, shown here in its Shell Pink finish, is aimed at guitarists who are in search of a true legend at an affordable price. This guitar features an offset-style basswood body and a roasted maple neck with a slim C profile and 21-fret laurel fingerboard that ensures a comfortable playing feel, and it comes loaded with a pair of Roswell single coil pickups that provide a full sound even in the bridge position. The combination of a classic early 60s-style finish and chrome hardware (complete with Kluson-style machine heads and a Tune-o-Matic bridge and stop-bar tailpiece) also ensures that it has the looks to match its distinctive and characteristic sound.

Perfect for Indie and Co.

The Harley Benton JA-60CC pays tribute to some of the classic guitars of the past and, while it will capably handle Jazz, will feel most at home in Indie and Alternative music. Its simple yet effective circuitry includes a three-way toggle switch for pickup selection as well as master volume and tone controls to allow guitarists to adjust the sound according to their personal preferences, and both the conveniently placed controls and the two Roswell pickups are installed on a cream-coloured pickguard that covers about half of the guitar’s top. Speaking of the pickups: Despite their similar appearance, these are not P90s but rather “conventional” single coils, albeit with wider, flatter windings that provide a richer and deeper sound than their taller, narrower counterparts. The fixed bridge and the reliable machine heads that adorn the natural-finish headstock in turn ensure reliable tuning stability.

Alternative sounds on a budget

Fans of Alternative or Surf music who have to get by on a small budget will certainly appreciate the Harley Benton JA-60CC’s affordable price. The guitar offers a great sound for Indie music thanks to its particularly flat, wide single coils, while the offset body’s deep cutaways mean that its impressive playing comfort does not end at the 12th fret. The JA-60CC’s excellent build quality can rival that of more high-priced instruments, so players can rest assured that they have made a solid investment and can enjoy the instrument for many years to come. And alongside the guitar’s distinctive sound, the authentic 1960s Shell Pink finish will also make it a guaranteed eyecatcher both at home and on stage.

Balance and versatility

Thanks to its clear and punchy sound, the JA-60CC can be used for a wide variety of musical genres. It will feel especially at home in Alternative, Indie, and Surf Rock music, where its two Roswell single coils will deliver clean sounds with plenty of low end as well as dynamic overdriven tones. The guitar’s sonic palette is complemented by the well-balanced offset body and familiar comfortable playing feel, both of which will facilitate a successful performance in the rehearsal room and, most importantly, on stage. Needless to say, the JA-60CC will sound best when combined with an appropriate amplifier – and of course Harley Benton also offers a range of high-quality amps at very fair prices, so it is also well worth checking out Thomann’s attractive bundle offers!

A wonderful choice for a Jazzmaster type guitar

Doozer Donald Doolin 05.07.2023

I've had this guitar (in shell pink) for 3 weeks now and it's honestly one of the best guitars I've played and had the pleasure of owning. I can't claim to have ever owned a fender, or a Gibson or any expensive Guitar because I have not. I've played and owned many squires, low end Ibanez and esp guitars. Over the last year or so I've read many good reviews of Harley Benton guitars and I've been looking for a Jazz/Jag shape guitar at a reasonable price and this guitar delivers that and more. No tuning issues at all, no setup or action issues and no blemish or defect issues. The guitar plays perfectly well and the pickups themselves sound great and can be played clean or with OD/Distortion and still sound good. It's very comfortable to play. I had high hopes and expectations and I was not disappointed. I'm currently playing through an old (2009) Zoom pedal Into an old Spider 4 I've had for nearly 13 years (when I was 17) and it still sounds wonderful. I don't doubt it would sound even better with a new amp and or pedal. I recommend this to anyone viewing this page and thinking about buying it. The guitar is a bit lighter in weight than I thought it would be and that's a good thing. In comparison my affinity tele feels like it weighs a ton. Really good for any genre I've played on it. from Takanaka to The used. From Chon to Attila. There isn't anything I've played that I haven't been able to get the right sound on. 5/5 across the board.

Incredible Sound and Feel for the Price Range!

scsundin 22.11.2022

I bought the JA-60CC blindly after having watched a video on it briefly. Something told me that I wouldn't be disappointed, but I had to keep my expectations low for a guitar in this price range.

Finally, the guitar had come in and gone through a serious checkup to see what the situation was. The neck was in perfect condition, and the fret job had to have been one of the best I've ever seen. The pickups that frightened me mostly came around twice.
Being primarily a metal player, I put the pickups through the wringer, exceeding every expectation. The body paint was put on excellently as well, with no hasty job markings or blemishes.

Overall, this instrument has turned out to be my everyday go-to guitar for studio sessions, and I can't recommend this guitar enough. For this price point, this is an absolute steal!

Surprised at how much I like this

Ph03n1x 08.11.2022

I bought this as a cheap short scale guitar to live on my sofa for some night time tinkering. I wasn’t expecting much because of the cost, but it’s solid and the quality appears to exceed the cost. Definitely value for money I’d say.
