Okay, its very inexpensive. It looks very nice, ie, paint, frets, hardware. Heres the other edge of the sword. Mine arrived with action at the 12th fret almost 3/4 inch high. I had to remove the neck and finish leveling out the pocket where someone at the factory had started already. After that there was some fret filing, truss rod adjustments and saddle adjustments to make. For me, no big deal. For someone who has never done these tasks it would have been the end of the road.

After that there was some fret filing, truss rod adjustments and saddle adjustments to make. For me, no big deal. For someone who has never done these tasks it would have been the end of the road. So far I have worked a bass and a 6 string guitar from Glarry. The parts and pieces make a decent instrument. If you have never worked on an instrument like this though, you'd probably give up unless your desire to play outweighed any flaws in your instrument. The pickups and electronics are cheesy, but record well. The finish is gorgeous. Fretwork is passable. Tuning keys, while not confidence inspiring, work well after you tighten them up. Bottom line, aimed at a market that will probably not continue on in their musical education. I am a 50 year plus veteran player and sometime luthier and this works well for me.

We were looking for a starter electric bass set for our son who has played upright bass at school. This is a perfect fit! It has everything we needed to get him started. Thanks, Glarry, for making music & learning so accessible.

Bass needed string height adjustment to eliminate fret buzz. Amp did not work. Opened back and found connector unplugged. Overall, satisfied with both for the price.

It's been 1 year since I bought the Jazz Bass set. It has worked PERFECTLY! I assumed that for the price the tuners would be cheap. I pick it up today to play along with a you tube video, and after put on the tuner and it was almost perfect. Good enough to play around on. The pickups have a little buzz at high volume but at bedroom levels it in unnoticeable. I plan on putting a 600pf cap to ground to fix the buzz. BEST BUY of 2020. 1 yr ago...

I watched 20 or so YouTube reviews and decided to buy the Bass and Amp set. I was a little concerned about the shipping box and hum in the guitar and amp. The price was so low I decided to take a chance and buy it. It arrived on the day promised with NO damage. I took it out of the box and looked it over. It is beautiful. I tuned it up and plugged in the Amp. The hum is marginal at high volume and unnoticeable at low volume. I plan on searching out some mu metal tape to eliminate the interference some time in the future. I am VERY happy with my purchase and recommend the combo to any beginner.

I spent hours possibly the whole day looking at reviews and I jumped in thinking there were going to be minor defects but at the same time really excited about getting both a bass and electric guitar for less than $170. I really wanted an acoustic guitar from glarry guitars as well but i had ordered a yamaha f335 instead. To my suprise Glarry had sent me my bass guitar practically the next day (during this crisis that's impressive). Even more surprising was everything was perfect the bass guitar ...

I spent hours possibly the whole day looking at reviews and I jumped in thinking there were going to be minor defects but at the same time really excited about getting both a bass and electric guitar for less than $170. I really wanted an acoustic guitar from glarry guitars as well but i had ordered a yamaha f335 instead. To my suprise Glarry had sent me my bass guitar practically the next day (during this crisis that's impressive). Even more surprising was everything was perfect the bass guitar was scratch free nothing was loose nothing broken or out of place no dents no bends this and that I guess those bad youtube reviews are from people who are used to playing on 100k gibson guitars. I mentioned the yamaha company because they are "supposed to be" pretty good brand and my guitar came in longer than expected which was expected but it had part of the wood on the body lifting and my glarry electric had arrived that same day as well and It too was in perfect condition just like my bass guitar and i couldn't help but think this company is even better than yamaha it delivers on time has great products and I have yet to see anything wrong with this company i highly recommend you buy from them. I've told my friends to buy as well you can't beat their prices and quality. Their slogan needs to be "I don't know how they do it". Thank you glarry guitars for making guitars great again.

This is a great bass guitar package. The bass needed small adjustments out of the box, but otherwise plays very nicely.

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.

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.

I am a beginner guitar player. Having a lot of fun trying to learn how to play the bass guitar. Watching YouTube and Books. Great beginner guitar set at a reasonable price. Thank you.

It's a nice sounding bass for a decent price... My boy definitely loves it... I'll be another one for my other son pretty soon...

I bought this bass/amp combo for my son as a Christmas present. He hinted he would like a bass and since I didn't want to spend a lot on something he might never play this was perfect. It came just as described and was packaged very well. He tuned it after opening and was playing in just a few minutes. The finish looked nice, much nicer than I'd have expected for the money. He's hardly put it down since Christmas morning and really enjoys it !! I'm certainly no expert about musical instruments b ...

The reviews I read helped me to decide on buying from Glarry and hopefully this review will sway someone to the same.

I ordered this bass guitar as a gift for my son's 14th birthday. It arrived securely packaged and it looks beautiful! We were greatly impressed by the quality right out of the box! It came with everything he needed (I ordered a stand, pics and a tuner separately), so he was able to use it right away. The amp is small, but just right for a beginner...it's not too loud and can easily be transported for travel between home & school. I will definitely order his next guitar from Glarry Music.

I ordered this for a friend for Xmas. It shipped fast, and was packed very carefully. I removed the bass, looked it over and found it to pretty impressive. There were a couple of fish eyes in the paint on back, but I found no other defects The neck was straight, bridge was straight, nut was cut perfectly. Electronics worked perfectly, no buzz or feedback. Before tuning, I lubed the tuners, they seemed pretty tight. I highly recommend lubing the tuners. After tuning, I plugged into a amp I alread ...

After tuning, I plugged into a amp I already have and started playing, I was and am very impressed. I have not put it down for very long, and I decided to keep it for myself!! I ended up ordering another one to complete my Xmas gift. I did use the 20w amp that came with the package and all I can say is it will be good for my friend to learn/practice with, but it is by no means top notch. Didn't expect it to be.

Pleased with my basses. Good for the money and they both sound great. Would be a good choice for a beginner.
