I haven't had any gas for the last two years, so I'm kind of due to get myself a new cheap guitar. I'm looking at Sire, Firefly, HB, and Eart. So far, the Earthmovers and Sire get the best reviews. Anyone want to chime in with a review or opinion?

The harley benton are pretty nice for cheap but really depends on what model u thinking about buying imo. ive never owned a sire but it looks like a nice guitar, im waiting on a hb jazzmaster to be here monday now. Ive never been disappointed with any of there models ive bought ever. frets and build have always been really nice fot me on bentons and ive owned about 15 so far.
There cheap used sometimes and always killed every cheapo like firefly, iyv, grote, monoprice, or cheap squier ive got so far. Most sub 3-400 guitars need pickups and tuners most of the time for me but depends on music your playing to. I tell everyone looking for a cheapo guitar to go benton, sx, hadean, mitchell or ltd. there are others but they usually are hit and miss like firefly and iyv brand they always need some kind of work to get good as a benton.
Ill say if your looking for a off body shape like v or z shape the firefly are cheap but be prepared to do work and throw money at it eventually to make it nice.
