I am super excited to surprise my grandson with his first bass! I never thought I could afford one for him. He will be thrilled.
I ordered another really cool guitar for him, but I'm saving it for his birthday. He saw the box and knew we had just looked at that guitar a couple of nights before. They come really fast :)
Now he will get the surprise for Chanukah and the other one for the birthday.
With this price I could afford two guitars.
Arrived in pristine condition. Finish and fit are awesome, a beautiful instrument! I wanted to explore 5-string bass and this bass feels incredible! After a setup and intonation it performs beautifully. Lovely grain and the pickups really deliver. If a maple fretboard becomes available I will purchase another!
Loved my new Bass! I do have small hands and the neck is a little on the big side, plays well and very sensitive. There were some small scratches when it arrived which was kind of sad 'cause it was brand new. I did give a 5 star but a 4.7 would have been what I wanted to do, but round up you know.
110% awesome Bass Guitar. I bought this kit and love it, I will only buy and play Glarry Bass Guitars.

It's okay for the price. Playable, but a bunch of minor issues and defects and also not really set up properly. Note: I'm new to bass coming from Violin and also a bit of guitar experience.
• Buzz on some of the strings on the upper positions
• Nut too high on the G string (hurts my fingers to play in the very bottom positions)
• Pretty neck heavy which makes it uncomfortable/difficult to play.

• I've had the bass for a month now and one of the holes for the strap pins got totally stripped somehow and you can't screw it back in anymore.
• Other minor defects and cosmetic issues.
Overall can't recommend, but could be worth it if you're okay with modifying and doing DIY stuff to it since there isn't really any other fretless bass this cheap. But on a positive note, it's still fun to play and sounds good enough (at least for me).
AMAZINg BASS!…Just as good as my 2 thousand dollar basses!…IT has ALREADY become my number one bass!…I will be buying another one for backup for when I do gigs!…I have big hands and I LOVE the neck profile!…Keep up the good work!
It's a great bass. The action was set up just how I like it so I didn't have to spend time on a set up. Love how easy it is to put pickup covers on it and make it look even better. I'm keeping the Glarry round wounds on it cause they sound great. This bass rocks.
Beautiful jazz bass with pj pickups..but the best part of this bass is the satin smooth chunky neck ..nice and thick like my 70s p bass..outstanding bass for the price ..will be buying more...maybe the six string next..thank you glarry
I would have given this 5 stars if the neck of the bass wasn't so far out of adjustment....that being said Its alot better quality than I expected and its great for home recording. Might even put some better pickups in it later
It is okay, it barely puts sound through my amp even with all my knobs turned up. The sanding job on the neck was kind of rough, and the c string broke up on tuning so I had to go get another set, but other than that it's pretty nice especially for the price. I'm not complaining by any means either. It plays and that's all I can ask! Thank you Glarry!
I'm honestly really surprised at the quality of the instrument considering the price and turn around time. It's super light and I can't stop playing it.
Bass is surprisingly good. With a good setup I would rate it very close to a squire Classic Vibe.. The neck is closer to a 50s profile than it is a modern C shape
The best feature is that the neck on the J bass is the same as the P bass, making it the only J bass I know of with a fat neck. True J bass people wouldn't like it.
This is my third Glarry bass. One of them has a twisted neck so by this measure the probability of a bad one would be about 30%.

The 20w amp however is so bad I wouldn't even give it away because it actually makes guitars sound worse that they really are. Do not use this amp. It
takes away from the quality of the guitar.
Slap some black nylon taped wounds and it's a black beautiful beast of a bass. Humbuckers are better quality than I expected. Bought this a year ago and no regrets.
I bought this to put a Fender fretless neck on it. It worked perfectly. I wanted a black unit but it wasn't available. I was given 10% off to accept the natural finish. The bridge is better than the Fender Bronco. I love it!
Love doing business with you!!!! After my bass arrived with the headstock broken off Glarry had a replacement 0n my doorstep in 3 days!!!! Love the guitar and the whole experience is an A+++!!!!!!!!!
The ads arrived quickly. There are no issues with the bass. Plays great. No dead notes or buzzing, or fretting out. For the price I was not expecting it to be this great out of the box.
The guitar is a phemonial instrument for the price, I highly recommend for any beginner. I wanted to try a 5 string bass without having to spend hundreds, and this was the perfect guitar for that. I now have two Glarry Basses, and they are a great product. Sadly, the gig bag sent with this 5 string did not fit the guitar at all, I can't use it. I'm assuming it's a generic size. I would love one that actually fit so I can actually take it places. Other than that, great product.
The guitar is beautiful! My husband was so impressed with the quality and workmanship of the actual guitar. The combo deal was a nice idea, but we will have to replace the amp, strap, and cords, due to lack of quality. However, the customer service is out of this world! I had a couple questions about packaging, and received a response almost immediately a couple times. We will definitely be shopping with you directly for our future purchases.
Beautiful bass. Electronics are sketchy. The only way to turn the volume down is to turn the tone knob all the way down. The 2 volume knobs for the pickups don't change the volume, but they change the tone. Not happy.

If I leave all three controls dimed out it sounds fine
It's a nice guitar for a beginner. When it arrived with the box punctured and battered, I had a feeling something would not be good. It has a great tone, but we noticed that the fixed bridge is unleveled and makes the B-string closer to the frets than the others, which concluded in a buzzing sound. The G-string bridge part was unleveled but didn't affect the tone nor the sound.
Learning bass guitars do make you stand out from the crowd. The lead guitar usually expresses the face and sound of the band with an exaggerated feel, but behind it is a bass guitar that brings vitality to the same band. The bass player usually calmly performs his own performance, making the entire band's energetic heartbeat continue to beat.
Playing a electric bass guitar is easy to learn, but it's hard to master, it all depends on where you want to match. Bass guitars are very easy to get started, most people can master the basics and start playing right away, but learning best bass guitars can also be very advanced, because it is an easy-to-use instrument that can be almost as infinite as possible. The right quality of the correct tuning and playing bass guitar and the richness of the rich tones are truly fascinating. Being a bass guitar player and being able to create such a sound yourself is still a much more exciting.
