Harley Benton JA Jazzmaster Kit Guitar FULL BUILD and Demo

In today's video, I will be building a Harley Benton JA Jazzmaster Kit Guitar.

I will be using Crimson Guitars Lavender Pastel stain, then using Crimson guitars penetrating and High build finishing oil.

I will go through the full build process of the Harley Benton JA Jazzmaster guitar, from start to a rocking demo it at the end of the video.

Thanks for posting this. I just took the plunge and bought one as my first kit guitar, so your video will be a big help avoiding potential pitfalls. It's really encouraging to see what a good result you got. 👍

I bought one of these and painted it surf green. It was actually quite fun to build from a kit.

Man what an absolute joy watching this !!! I'm so tempted to get a kit one day. Make it my own and force me to see how well I can do a setup. Hahaha.

That color looks great on it. Matching headstock is nice as well. I really like the looks of this kit especially for the price. Perfect for people starting out with kits or thinking about building their own guitar. Would recommend it. Seems yours wasn’t free of some redrilling too. Part of the game I guess.
👍

Brilliant mate ! The set up part is easily one of the best I’ve seen especially for anyone new to set ups. Great work as always ! 🎸🎸🔥🔥

I bought this same kit, I was lucky mine aligned perfectly, didn't have to redrill any holes or anything. I reshaped the headstock and ended up putting new tuners on because I snapped one by over tightening it. I didn't even paint mine just left it as is, the kit ain't bad for the price however I have noticed the neck pick up is so much louder than the bridge.

Yours came out lovely.

Just the video I wanted to watch! I've been toying with getting a HB JA kit, and you've convinced me! It'll be fun to see how much I can muck it up :D

[jamesbaynton]

Great finish, thanks for sharing the process.

I'm sold on getting one dude ..nice build..great sounding guitar.

[Seventeen_Seconds]

Matching purple headstock looks really good, great choice of colour. Always liked these and they look amazing value for the money. A lot of flexibility for what's probably considered a budget kit. Great content 👍🏻

[leevespa]

Really impressed by your vid mate, seriously thinking of getting a kit now, after watching your video, enjoy playing it 😬👍🏻🤘🏻

[jtrade]

Love that you narrated the video. The color i get it now. And i have top say the demo song you played was super awesome. Put out an album for sure.

[yucatansuckaman]

the color is appropriate for Easter. these kits are giving me so many ideas for a custom guitar. happy Easter dude!

[pacoruizserrano]

Very nice work, and quite well explained video!

[fermiparadox]

I just did one. Waiting for the neck to come. Mine was original Jazzmaster cavity with the tremolo and bridge that people hate. Pickups mount different too. I paid too much for it all but I always do it seems.

[ccjmusic]

That looked and sounded great. I never knew HB did kits. You are the first I know that also likes Parma Violets. An old coworker tried one once and told me they taste like his Grandmother smells. I haven’t been able to find any over here for years.

[RhinestonePickupTruck]

Been a long time viewer and subscriber! Love your videos, this is definitely one of my favorites you’ve done!

[tramlad]

I fancy doing the PRS type without the trem, might treat myself to that bad boy, great video, looks straight forward enough to do, big thumbs up

[JaniceLalla]

Thanks for the condensed version, I enjoyed it!
