HSS without the excess

Harley Benton ST-Modern Plus MN HSS GMB electric guitar, front view

The ST-Modern Plus MN HSS GMB from Harley Benton's Pro Series is an electric guitar built around a versatile HSS pickup configuration that combines a black Tesla humbucker in the bridge position with two matching single coils in the middle and neck, allowing a smooth transition from powerful Rock tones to clear, articulate clean sounds. The design follows a refined aesthetic: With its Gun Metallic Blue finish and black pickguard and hardware, the guitar always stands out visually, yet it also fits right in with heavier, distorted sounds. Beyond its appearance, the instrument is equipped with a range of professional features, including a high-quality Babicz tremolo system, fluorescent side dots, and staggered machine heads that support stable tuning and ease of use. The familiar ST body shape ensures a comfortable playing feel, making it suitable for extended sessions in a range of different styles and settings. Altogether, the combination of tonal flexibility, thoughtful design, and reliable hardware makes this model a well-rounded choice that remains affordable without compromising on performance.

Packed with pro features

The Harley Benton ST-Modern Plus MN HSS GMB employs the classic ST body shape, with a body crafted from American alder that contributes to both resonance and visual appeal, while the ergonomically designed neck joint ensures comfortable access even in the highest registers. The bolt-on neck is made from thermally treated (roasted) American flamed maple, which gives it not only a distinctive look but also a noticeably refined feel in the hand, while its flat D-profile supports smooth playability. The fingerboard in turn features 22 medium-jumbo stainless steel frets, enhanced further by rounded semi-spherical fret ends, a detail more commonly associated with high-end instruments. The pickups are governed by master volume and tone knobs, allowing consistent adjustment regardless of the selected pickup, while a five-way switch makes it easy to move through the different tonal options.

Even more than an all-rounder

The Harley Benton ST-Modern Plus MN HSS GMB is an all-round guitar designed for players who enjoy the clarity of classic single-coil tones but also need greater versatility for modern Rock and high-gain sounds, with the bridge humbucker delivering a bright and powerful sound with plenty of body. The tone control features a push/pull feature that allows the humbucker to be split, unlocking the popular "second position" ST-style sound with the bridge and middle pickups as single coils for added sparkle and flexibility. The high-quality Babicz tremolo system is fully integrated into the Pro concept, and its wide range of travel opens the door to divebombs and other expressive techniques, while the staggered locking machine heads in turn ensure reliable tuning stability. Truss rod adjustment at the body end of the neck also means that neck relief can be adjusted with the utmost ease, and the guitar comes strung with a set of coated Elixir strings in gauges .010-.046.

Seven sounds in one guitar

The Harley Benton ST-Modern Plus HSS Gun Metal Blue is a highly versatile guitar capable of covering virtually any musical style, with crisp Funk tones achieved through the split bridge humbucker and the middle single coil pickup delivering bright, sparkling sounds ideal for Pop arpeggios. In full humbucker mode, the bridge pickup provides powerful, punchy Rock tones, while the middle and neck pickups offer warm, full-bodied clean sounds well suited for bluesy double stops or more refined Jazz comping. The neck pickup on its own performs particularly well for expressive single-note lines and lead work, and this wide tonal range makes the instrument a strong choice for developing players exploring different genres and sound possibilities, as well as for more experienced performers who will benefit from the reduced need for multiple guitars on stage. For touring use, its stable tuning and reliable gig-ready design also make it a convenient alternative to bringing valuable vintage instruments on the road.

Great Guitar For any Price!
ksymes86 18.02.2026
The initial guitar I ordered arrived with a fault, I spoke to the team at Thomann and they were really helpful and arranged for a replacement to be issued, great, efficient service.

The new guitar arrived a few days ago and it as absolutely brilliant. It needed a very slight set up adjustment out of the box but this is to be expected as the guitar travelled all the way here to the UK. It plays really well, the neck is one of the best I've played, incredible tuning stability and the Babicz bridge is a lot of fun. I honestly don't understand how they can produce such a quality guitar at this price point. I own/have owned several "higher" end guitars and this feels right at home with them. This won't be my last HB and I would definitely use Thomann again.

Incredible value guitar
tiagoramalhais2 21.03.2026
I have over 25 guitars ranging from 70-3000€, this guitar for specs and finish quality would still be good value if it cost 1000€, everything about it is just perfect, the finish, fret job, hardware, setup all near perfect, sounds like a good strat, not the best sounding strat i have but i have strats that cost 3/4/5x as much and don't sound as good . I have other Harley Benton guitars that are also good value but this one is some miles ahead, really impressed.

A couple notes:
.The Neck is a bit thicker than your average Fender strat, seems to me to have more shoulder ( a D shape vs the fender C shape), if that's a problem for you be aware, but for the price it costs i would buy it anyway and sand it down to my liking.
.I was weary of the Babicz tremolo, some people reported issues with palm-muting on the Babicz trem saddles, the saddles sit higher that regular block saddles so you have to adjust a bit, i do a lot of palm mutting even on the high strings and i quickly naturally adjusted after some minutes, it's fine at least for me, if you have issues you can buy aftermarket saddles to replace the Babicz ones (it will work since the rest of the trem is very generic and will work with regular saddles).

Great guitar!
Andy I 07.02.2026
Very pleased with this. All good, no flaws and photos dont do this justice. It really is a great looker. Playability is superb and the sound is crystal clear. Outstanding feature for me is the neck, so easy to play and the satin neck is a bonus. Having had a couple of ST type guitars made in Japan and USA I rate this as equal but it has it's own personality, so not a clone.

Crazy value
Guitar Geeza 22.02.2026
Bought this guitar a week ago, gigged it last night in a hot sweaty club. Absolutely stayed in tune and didn’t miss a beat. Crazy value for money, arrived well packaged and was immaculate.
Gave pickups 4 out of 5, could be a bit more articulate, couple of scratchy frets, no biggie. The neck profile is chunky D, which was a shock as I have a Schecter C1-SLS Elite. After a couple of hours, of playing soon got used to it.

If you’re looking for a good looking guitar with a solid trem and like value for money, this is unbeatable
