I am having a hard time believing I paid $90 for this guitar.
And that's including the lefty tax. But I understand that there are less of us lefties around so $20 or so more is not heartbreaking.
My guitar arrived in pristine condition, packaging was adequate. The guitar needed a tune, intonation was spot on, string height was almost perfect, I only had to tweak one string. The strings themselves were OK, I replaced these with Ernie Ball Super Slinky 9-42s immediately. The tuning machines were ...

The strings themselves were OK, I replaced these with Ernie Ball Super Slinky 9-42s immediately. The tuning machines were adequate, but I already replaced them with Hipshot locking tuners, which is my go-to tuner design.
In terms of fit and finish, it's very nice. The fret ends were fine, I polished them a little bit but that was more for practice. It's a nice guitar, and again, it doesn't look like a $90 guitar.
It plays very nicely (and it's so light!), I have only been learning for a few months, but I am really enjoying it.
Would I buy another one? Absolutely, I actually bought a right-handed version for my kid. But I would definitely buy more if/when the time comes.
color me quarantined quazy! i just picked up my burleywood p bass from the desolate fed ex office, got home, and opened it up. i am even more happy than i thought i would be. this is not my first glarry purchase, so i expect quality, but, man, the other reviews are spot on. the finish is mirror-like, the unfinished neck is going to be super fast, the frets are really finished quite well (no skin or blood loss), the bass really IS quite lightweight (be prepared for neck diving), and the sound is ...

but get this: i was groveling for a gig bag, couldn't get one tossed in, but got a discount code instead. to my surprise, and maybe i didn't read everything carefully enough (but I usually do), in the package was the bass, cord, allen wrenches, plus a pick, strap, and a gig bag.
88 bucks and change. damn, glarry. at LEAST five stars.
thanks!!

It hasn't been received yet. Order didn't ship out until a week after i ordered it. Still waiting. I guess they ran out at the warehouse in New Jersey and had to ship from China. Ill update review after its received but wanted to leave the review so the pesky emails would stop. They couldn't reach out once and say your order will be delayed but they have no problem emailing over and over to get your reviews. Hope all this was worth it

Sorry for the inconvenience caused to you! We appreciate your support for Glarry. Due to the spread of COVID-19, online shopping has risen dramatically. We are still committed to our same-day shipping guarantee, but the effects of COVID-19 are causing delays with order processing & transportation systems outside of our control. Thank you for your understanding. Glarry
I'm actually still waiting for the guitar due to Covid related shipping delays out of LA. Piece is now finally on the way But, I can tell you that Glarry's customer service has repeatedly been responsive and helpful in getting me information. The customer service experience often gives you an indication about the company, so I am starting off this adventure with Glarry with high hopes.
Came quickly, no damage. Set it up and It plays well. Really like the neck and the well manicured frets. Lightweight , excellent finish, and everything works as designed. Great guitar for lefties. And not that expensive. Will try another Glarry product soon.

My son told me he wanted to take guitar lessons, I let him do the research and pick something out. He chose this one to be his first. He loves it! Left handed guitar choices are limited and my only issue is that it doesnt come with an amp like the right handed selections.
I feel it's still a good buy.
Amazing guitar for the price and sounds great. Only thing to consider is if you play loud or with lots of gain the pickups are microphonic. Other than that amazing quality.

Good Bass Guitar,very light, good manufacturing, comfortable,the action on the neck is perfect,for the price it is excellent and the sound is magnificent.I have made a good investment.
I really like the bass! As is usually the case with "package" deals, the strap and cord are so-so, and the bag has no padding or shoulder straps--basically just a dust cover. I don't mind that, because I knew to expect it and because it means they put most of the money into the actual instrument. Everything is as pictured on the website. The bass sounds great and looks amazing! the knobs are plastic on the inside, but their encased in real metal, which truly impressed me. My bass did arrive with ...
I really like the bass! As is usually the case with "package" deals, the strap and cord are so-so, and the bag has no padding or shoulder straps--basically just a dust cover. I don't mind that, because I knew to expect it and because it means they put most of the money into the actual instrument. Everything is as pictured on the website. The bass sounds great and looks amazing! the knobs are plastic on the inside, but their encased in real metal, which truly impressed me. My bass did arrive with a "birthmark"--a quarter-inch diameter divot in the back of it. It's only about 1/16 inch deep, and it 's not even on the part of the area where the bass would touch my stomach, so it's no big deal. (I bought my son a Glarry bass also, and it had no blemishes whatsoever, so I think mine was just a fluke.) Here's the important thing for you to know: Although it took longer than 24 hours, Glarry did respond to my message. They stepped up and made it right. If I were ordering an instrument as a gift (or if the blemish in question had been more of a concern for me), I would want to know that Glarry stands behind their product and looks after their customers. Apparently they do. I have zero regret about this purchase, and I look forward to adding some creative bass parts to my home recordings!
Love the guitars. My granddaughters are going to love them too! Delivery was done in a timely manner considering all that is going on in this world! Both guitars arrived with no damage
This bass feels great. Frets were done well. I oiled the fretboard and greased the tuners. I really love playing this thing! It sings! The weight is light and balanced There were not any allen wrenches in the box. No sweat. I have some!
All in all I couldn't have done better. This thing is a steal. Better get you one before the price goes up! Later yall
Love the guitar, am upgrading the pickups out of personal preference. Very nice quality especially for the price. My only complaint would be the lack of availability of guitars for us lefty's. You guys have been sold out for several months which in these times is understandable but how about some regulars updates on when they might arrive. Then we could at least have a clue. I will buy a few more I assure you! Dave
I'm very happy with my Glarry left handed gp electric bass. It was very affordable, arrived quickly and sounds great right out of the box. I purchased the burlywood and I love the way it looks. I'd recommend Glarry to any beginner!
This guitar is perfect. I'm a modifier and what they call a fan if the Partscaster. And this will be perfect for electronics and hardware modifications.
Like it fun guitar to play
Great guitar like the look feel and the way it sounds only problem is one tone know broken pick guard cracked and body has a Crack also probably from shipping
i bought this case for a nice little jazz bass i had purchased a few months prior, and which i had been keeping in the fairly decent gig bag that came with it. feeling it deserved something nicer, but knowing the likelihood of it ever leaving the house was very slim, i just needed a relatively well made but not terribly pricey basic model. then I saw this case, and thought, dang, i've never found a glarry item i didn't love, so i snapped up this bargain.
bingo! you guys did it again!! it's a s ...

bingo! you guys did it again!! it's a snug fit, which is great, there's enough room for what needs to go inside, and i needn't worry about my bass being injured by an accidental bump or slip. pretty good deal for just $60!
Guitar is great. However, I didnt get my item un 3-5 days and paid the extra $7.99 shipping for it. I emailed for refund and no response

Very nice guitar. Exceeded my expectations. Would highly recommend.
I am very pleased with the purchase of my Glarry GP Bass. It is a very nice instrument and the price is fantastic! It sounds and plays better than I expected. The purchase process was easy and the product arrived quickly. I will definitely return to Glarry to make future purchases.
Received it surprisingly fast considering we're in a pandemic. As for the guitar, I couldn't have been happier for the price. Very very small issues if any. The single pickup in the middle was misaligned (simple fix), the headstock had one tiny paint blemish. Other than those extremely small issues I very much enjoy this guitar. Thank you Glarry!

The bass got here in minimal time and had no issues. It played well and the electronics worked just fine.
It is hard to find a heavy metal guitar for a better price than this. The finish was beautiful with no chips or flaws, which was incredible considering it had to cross the Pacific Ocean twice to get to me in Japan. The headstock is Gibsonesque and looks beautiful. It's basswood body is extremely light which is great for a child or a person with back problems. The neck was thicker than what I was used to but smooth. The jumbo frets were smooth with no fret sprout and the fingerboard looked a ...
It is hard to find a heavy metal guitar for a better price than this. The finish was beautiful with no chips or flaws, which was incredible considering it had to cross the Pacific Ocean twice to get to me in Japan. The headstock is Gibsonesque and looks beautiful. It's basswood body is extremely light which is great for a child or a person with back problems. The neck was thicker than what I was used to but smooth. The jumbo frets were smooth with no fret sprout and the fingerboard looked and felt great. Volume and tone controls worked fine. The whammy bar is sturdy but not really meant for dive bombing. If you are a beginner, make sure you have someone set it up for you and put on a fresh set of strings because it comes with the action very high. However it is easy to adjust and perfect for someone who wants to mess around with guitar upgrades and repair. The pickups and tuners are decent but you may want to invest $100 or so for better ones that don't hum as much. Still, even with that upgrade this guitar would be three times cheaper than the cheapest brand name heavy metal guitar. A good investment.
5 starrs. Love the look and feel of this Strat. Was a few minor issues that Glarry made good on. Will buy from Glarry again. Great customer service.
Amazing guitar for the price. Played perfect right out of the box. Thank you Glarry.
I received my bass about a week ago and so far I have been very satisfied. This is my first bass and I have noticed nothing wrong with it. I was unfamiliar with this company before I order and was a little skeptical. However, my package arrived on time and in good condition. I am still shocked at how cheap this was! Without knowing the price I would think that it would've cost more. Thank you!!
I love this bass. It came in securely packed, looking great, not a blemish on it anywhere. For the price at which these are selling, it's an almost unbelievable value. When I received the guitar, I took it completely apart. It had a bit of "fret sprout" which was easily remedied. I foil-lined all the cavities and the back of the pickguard. Next, I set the string height. At that point, all was well. Now I just need to learn to play bass!! But, thanks Glarry, I love this guitar.
I have been playing bass/guitar for a long time. When I first started playing I had to flip the strings because left handed , was hard to find.
When I saw this ad for a p bass in left handed, for under 70$ I thought , what have I got to lose. If it is junk, I will use the parts.
When the bass came in, my first impression was it looked very nice. But very nice looking, might not sound nice. Right out the box I tuned it up and played for an hour non stop. The action was right on. The intonation ...

The action was right on. The intonation was fine. The bass is beautiful. Even my wife who shakes her head every time I buy , just one more bass, commented how nice it looked.
Don't know how you build a bass to look and sound as nice as this one for that low price. But I am not complaining, just looking for another one. Just one more!!!
