I've bought several inexpensive guitars lately and this is one of the best in looks and feel. It's a burlywood which looks great and has a nice finish (except for a small crack in the neck pocket). The only obvious issue is that two of the strings are strung through the saddle springs. I had planned on using this guitar to practice upgrades on so, if I have to replace the bridge, that's ok.

I've bought several inexpensive guitars lately and this is one of the best in looks and feel. It's a burlywood which looks great and has a nice finish (except for a small crack in the neck pocket). The only obvious issue is that two of the strings are strung through the saddle springs. I had planned on using this guitar to practice upgrades on so, if I have to replace the bridge, that's ok. That being said, I was expecting to also replace the tuners, neck and then pickups. I previously bought a no-name strat (with the same headstock as the Glarry) which had very sharp and rusty frets and a misplaced neck. The Glarry's neck is much better than I expected and feels comfortable. The fret ends are smooth and the frets came more polished than those of several better-known brands of guitars that I have. The volume and tone controls have a better taper than those guitars. The pickups are less microphonic than those of earlier Glarrys seen in online videos. So, I'll keep the neck and probably also the pickups (for now). The tuners aren't great, but are comparable to better known brands and the nut is cut to a good height so the low notes are well intonated. Overall Intonation and action were good on arrival. The guitar shipped quickly via UPS.
