The bridge and the nut weren't measured correctly causing the strings to off on the neck. It also came chipped at the input. Even with these issues and the price, I repaired it and it plays fine.

Bass arrived on time 1 week after ordering. Safely packaged with no damage. Looks and sounds amazing. The fret bars are tearing up my fingers because they are so high and need to be filed down and sanded I guess. I've never had this problem but this is also my first bass under $700

Not a bad instrument to start the bass hobby. It plays decent. This one came on time before Christmas. I noticed a few bad things: 1. Some of the screws came loose and not screwed in all the way 2. The cord that comes with it broke after a few sessions, it made static noises and very irritating. 3. The strap can easily be undone accidentally, it can be hazardous to you or anything that this bass guitar can fall on. 4. Customer service not good. They haven't replied to me yet, I reported the ...

They haven't replied to me yet, I reported these complaints 3 weeks ago.

The guitar arrived earlier than I thought , Thanks. However the action was too high and the G string vibrates after the tones die. Email communication responded after the guitar was received. I tried to change the color, but they responded two days after it was shipped. Overall I got what I paid for and my son has a starter Bass

It's a gift and still unsure if it works.

First thing I will say is That the overall value is great and Glarry is a great company.I am a Professional musician and own a lot of guitars.The bass needed some work when I got it ,neck needed extra shim and ground wire was not connected, but once I fixed problems it is a great bass for under 100.00 dollars

I did not get a bag with THIS one, but I love it plays well. p.s. please don't forget the bag this time.

I received the bass and the box was a little damaged but the packaging was good enough that it prevented any damage to the guitar as far as I could see. I plugged it in and at first it sounded good but when I started turning the pots on it, I noticed that the bridge pickup knob doesn't work and the tone knob being turned causes the sound to cut in and out. I've heard Glarry is good about doing returns and replacements but when I messaged customer service, they responded as if they didn't know I ...

I've heard Glarry is good about doing returns and replacements but when I messaged customer service, they responded as if they didn't know I was requesting to return it and get a replacement. Other than that, shipping was on time and the guitar seems to be of pretty good quality for the price. If I could get them to respond about the return and replacement, I would have no more complaints.

Great value at $79. (Glarry got back to me quickly and this is being resolved, for some reason their email went into spam, previous emails didn't, SO CHECK SPAM FOLDERS!) Jack for chord does not work, chord wiggles around. Do not want to void any guarantee. Playing it without an amp for now. Action is great, strings are decent, Finish is smooth and pickups are also decent. Low output but I am sure some concessions had to be made to offer an instrument at this price. I have been a teacher ...

I have been a teacher for 43 years and although I am not a music teacher I know it can be hard for kids to get instruments if they come from low income families. If this pandemic ever ends and we get back to normal, I will buy one every 6 months, and through the music teachers, I will give my older ones to a kid who wants to play bass but can't afford an instrument. Will update review once Customer Service gets back to me regarding the jack

Some fret buzz, but wasn't expecting perfect at this price range.

For the price it's a good instrument. Tuners are a little hard to turn, pickups not high output. Not a very resonant bass, strap button fell off I repaired that. Needs setup I'll buy better strings before I do that. Fretboard it dry frets are sharp at ends and not polished. Nut is plastic and sharp ends. Bridge is good. Neck is very heavy not balanced very well. Overall not terrible for $80 but needs work. Fortunately I have lots of experience in the luthier field.

Note: this review is coming from a complete beginner getting into the bass for the very first time. Overall, this bass serves its intended purpose. I was able to play it after a bit of adjustment right out of the box, the amp that it came with sounded decently enough, and overall it sounds pretty good. Here are some caveats however. Let me be clear that I'm writing this from the viewpoint that this is aimed at those maybe wanting to get into the instrument for the first time with a fresh set o ...

Note: this review is coming from a complete beginner getting into the bass for the very first time. Overall, this bass serves its intended purpose. I was able to play it after a bit of adjustment right out of the box, the amp that it came with sounded decently enough, and overall it sounds pretty good. Here are some caveats however. Let me be clear that I'm writing this from the viewpoint that this is aimed at those maybe wanting to get into the instrument for the first time with a fresh set of eyes. Immediately out of the box, it was out of tune, though that is to be expected. After tuning, I noticed a lot of rattling of the strings on the frets. This required a lot of adjustment of the truss rod, which beginners might not be aware of and might be discouraged thinking it was on them. Secondly, after playing and practicing for a while, the inner joint on my left index finger discovered that the frets are indeed quite sharp and protruding - enough to draw blood after a few slides. Would I recommend this to a friend? Sure, though I would also bear in mind the caveats listed above and wouldn't necessarily recommend playing as-is without a little bit of work put into it.
