Solid-top parlour with electronics
)
The Harley Benton CLP-12SM BRS Solid Top is a parlour-format electro-acoustic guitar that draws on the compact steel-string designs of the 1930s to 50s. The body pairs an X-braced top made from solid Sitka spruce with mahogany back and sides; the nyatoh neck in turn carries a 19-fret purple heart fingerboard and a 43mm bone nut, and the guitar has a 628mm scale length. Maple and abalone binding runs along the body edges and neck, with an abalone rosette and HB-design abalone fingerboard inlays adding to the vintage-inspired aesthetic. The HB-03 piezo pickup and preamp system with three-band EQ, built-in tuner, and phase switch sit discreetly in the upper bout, making the instrument stage-ready without the need for external microphones.

Small body, big sound
The solid Sitka spruce top on the Harley Benton CLP-12SM BRS Solid Top responds to both light fingerpicking and harder flatpicking with clear articulation, and the X-bracing keeps the response focused rather than diffuse, which suits the parlour format's natural emphasis on upper-mid presence and note separation. The mahogany back and sides simultaneously add warmth without obscuring the top's clarity. The 628mm scale length and 43mm nut width are accessible for players with smaller hands or those transitioning from classical technique, and the C-profile neck remains comfortable during extended sessions. The bone nut and compensated purple heart bridge saddle keep intonation consistent across the 19 frets. The HB-03 preamp sits flush in the upper bout; its three-band EQ allows basic tone shaping, the phase switch counters feedback when performing close to a monitor, and the built-in tuner minimises unwanted delays on stage.

A must for every parlour fan
The parlour format has a long association with Blues and Roots playing – its focused midrange and compact body reward a dynamic, nuanced touch rather than heavy strumming, and the solid spruce top responds readily to that playing style without an extensive breaking-in period. The honest trade-off is volume: A parlour body moves less air than a dreadnought or jumbo, and in an unplugged acoustic session with louder instruments, the CLP-12SM BRS will need the pickup to compete. The HB-03 system handles that transition cleanly, however. For students, the 628mm scale length and comfortable neck profile lower the barrier to entry; for more experienced players, the solid top, compact proportions, and vintage-inspired styling make it a viable second or travel instrument.

The continuous expansion of the range ensures that Harley Benton always provides new, exciting, and innovative products that keep players perfectly in tune with the musical world, day after day.
Sessions, travel, and open mics
The CLP-12SM BRS's compact body makes it manageable in situations where a full-size acoustic is impractical: travelling to rehearsals on public transport, playing a session in a smaller space, or taking it on a tour where luggage has to be kept to a minimum. Plugged into a small acoustic amp or a PA via the HB-03, the piezo system produces a clean, usable signal that handles a live mix without major EQ work. The phase switch is particularly useful in small live venues where monitor placement can increase the risk of feedback. Fitted with Harley Benton HQS .012-.053 coated phosphor bronze strings as standard, the instrument ships ready to tune, and the coating extends string life under regular use. At 98×35×9.5cm it is compact enough for most overhead lockers and guitar bags designed for travel instruments.
