Excellent review and playing. It would seem a lot of reviewers have mentioned unwanted noise with these guitars, which could be a problem for gigging guitarists, but then again getting a gig would be difficult in England anyway so noise isn’t going to be a problem until music regains it’s roots at least not here. Keep up the reviews, I enjoy them, and find them informative. Thanks

I was considering getting a beginner bass for myself for Christmas, as I’ve never actually played an instrument to a full extent before, but have been wanting to for a while. I was looking at this one on their website and it seemed reliable, but I wanted to make sure, so I checked out this video and I think it very much solidifies the chances of me getting it for myself. It was really nice hearing how it sounds and I really liked hearing it in different settings. Thanks a lot for the great review, man!

Mine is coming today or tomorrow I ordered the complete package for 100 comes with the black p bass amp gig bag and cable.

I have one of these jazz basses and most definitely performs above and beyond 100 dollars. Sounds, looks and feels like a proper bass and can be setup with pretty decent action. I think people on youtube are reluctant to say its a good bass, not just for the price, to not create unreasonable expectations but they are pretty decent instruments on their own right. 100% you can gig with this and not only would nobody notice, they would sound good.

My GP Glarry 2022 'natural color has 90% neck like my Fender Ultra Precision bass. Maybe all the remarks about the thickness of the neck influenced them to adjust the neck to the normal feeling.

Excellent, thorough and interesting review. To me, the bass sounds great for very little money. The drawbacks are very few. I think the suggestion the neck could be changed defeats the object of buying cheap. But I have just bought a banana yellow one on the basis of your review, just for fun.

Glarry does have their version of a jazz bass. 4 or 5 string.

As of Jan 2021 this P-Bass or a Jazz Bass is $85.99 US funds with free shipping in the USA. This is the lowest price for a playable bass on the market at this time. It is made in China and they are wrapped at the factory and shipped to the US distributor. They are not checked in any way by the distributor and are reshipped to clients in the US. So the quality can vary with occasional cosmetic defects or defective parts on your guitar. On the positive side Glarry according to reports seems to stand by their product and will offer to correct the situation as it arises. For the price if you are able to do some basic setup procedures ( KZread videos ) you can have a perfectly functional bass for a very cheap price.

GR8 VIDEO....THANKS A LOT....BUT THE PROBLEM ABOUT THE BUDGET BASSES ( OR GUITARS , OR ANY OTHER INSTRUMENTS ) THEY MAY PLAY AND SOUND GR8 TODAY, BUT HOW ABOUT TOMORROW ? HOW ABOUT 2 YEARS LATER ? HOW ABOUT 5 YEARS LATER ? HOW ABOUT 10 YEARS LATER ? IF I BE BUSY CHANGING , REMAKING OR REWIRING THE PARTS ( ESPECIALLY THE ELECTRONICS ) AND SPENDING LOTS OF MONEY, ENERGY AND TIME, EVEN 75 US DOLLARS WOULD BE STEEP...

So, would it be correct to say it's good foundation for beginners to learn on, and then upgrade to something closer to a pro level bass? I'd like to buy a beginner bass that doesn't have to stay a beginner bass.

I have 2 Glarry basses, one of their P basses and one of their Jazz basses. I personally love them. The amount of Bass that they gave me for the money is amazing and there is so much room for personalized upgrades. I honestly love Glarry instruments for the potential they give musicians on a budget. Creative musicians will throw a new bridge, better pick ups, higher quality strings, etc. I even took my basses in the backyard and sanded the neck down with steel wool for a super smooooooth natural wood finish that my hand oils are staining just by playing it. These basses WILL do it ALL from the factory but the potential they give you for the money is an absolute steal!
