Pretty honest instrument at the price point! I'm a working drummer getting into bass so after a couple of months learning on my fretted jazz bass, I wanted to try a fretless mostly because I love the tone it produces. The lack of lines or guides in the fingerboard cans be challenging, but if you're used to a fretted one and have good ears, you'll overcome it real quick.

Pretty honest instrument at the price point! I'm a working drummer getting into bass so after a couple of months learning on my fretted jazz bass, I wanted to try a fretless mostly because I love the tone it produces. The lack of lines or guides in the fingerboard cans be challenging, but if you're used to a fretted one and have good ears, you'll overcome it real quick.
The intonation and action right out of the box was perfect! Much better than my Indo Squier that took me days to put the neck straight, and it keeps on bending in the Florida crazy moisture and heat. The Glarry bass neck keeps straight as an arrow, with very little relief as it's my personal preference.
I feel that I'm gonna need a new nut because it's hard to get the notes on the first "fret" position. Other than that, no modifications needed so far. It holds the tune very well, although I feel the tuning machines are weak to the pressure. Time will tell. I had a small problem with electronics on mine. Out of the box, it didn't make any sound. No output at all. Tried different cables, amps and nothing. Glarry customer service worked to solve the problem and I sent the bass to a repair shop after they refunded me the amount needed to get it done. I really appreciate the way this company make business and certainly will buy other products in the near future.
As others mentioned, get yourself a tuner, erase the white dots on side of the neck and write new ones. I'm having a lot of fun with this bass!

P.S: I used vinyl adhesive to change the pickguard look. Pretty easy job and I didn't need to buy a new one.
