I purchased a GT 501 about a year ago and with a little work on the frets, a full setup, I have an excellent addition to my collection of guitars that I love playing. YOU CAN NOT BEAT THIS GUITAR FOR THE MONEY!!!!!!

I have been playing for over 50 years, so caring for a guitar is one of my simple pleasures in life and making a few tweaks on a guitar, especially in this price range, is to be expected. The neck sanding was a little rough, the fret edges were a little sharp, but I gave it love, and made it extremely playable. I upgraded the tuners, replaced the saddle and nut with bone and now have a killer guitar that could put up against any guitar in the < $1,000 range..
Now, perhaps I was lucky to get one of those one in a hundred instruments, but this guitar is what I call a 'breather'. It really pumps air, and has convinced me that laminates are not necessarily a bad thing. I play a lot of finger style, James Taylor's work in particular, and this baby rings very sweetly with very good sustain. It has a bell-like quality. The low end is ok, but not quite as impressive as the mids and top, but the harsh reality is I have never heard many steel string acoustics that had a really full and powerful low end for less that about $2,000 in today's money.
I have purchase 2 more Glarry instruments since. I have a tenor Uke, a UT602, and just bought a Jbass, and have so far, have been equally as pleased.
BUY GLARRY!!!.
