I want a cheap acoustic guitar, but electric guitars are waaaaay more comfortable for me. Also, my budget is tight, so I can't afford something, like a Fender. Would you recommend that cheap Harley Benton?
I thinked about this one:

brazen bluff

I mean not many other options

What is uncomfortable about an acoustic for you? Body size, string tension, something else?

#

Just want to consider if there might be other solutions to your problem

That’s my thoughts I’m not trying to be rude

#

You have no other option

brands like Martin do have odd shaped necks if you’re used to thin C electrics, but some brands also have the V neck on electrics

Wait

#

And this acoustic one is a modern d

you never know til you try, every guitar is different

#

Should I try another guitar with a modern d to decide if that's comfortable for me?

Ohh, I get it

#

Like usually acoustic necks are wider than electric for example

#

classical necks being the widest

#

I am just doubtful that a weird acoustic is going to be the best way to deal with the issue

Uhm
I've tried an old Framus (70's), one old Hungarian guitar from Szeged (60's), one from Leningrad (60's), a Squier, and two Harley Bentons
I don't know the exact modells, exept the Squier. It's an SA-105.

#

The Szegedi and the one from Leningrad were classicals

#

Other ones had steel strings

And you don't like the neck on any of them?

I'm trying to find the specifications for the sa-105

#

They all were u comfortable

#

And what electric guitar do you have that you like

Yeah I'm not surprised the classicals felt weird

#

I think the letter shapes have to do with the back of the neck though

#

Whereas the radius describes the fretboard

#

radius is referring to the fingerboard here yes, original comment didn’t separate the two
