Bully, you are so right! I was a high end guy but kidney failure made me rearrange my.misical priorities. I had to sell most of my gear just to keep my family in our home while waiting on disability to kick in. My wife felt bad and asked me what could she do to help so she went on Rondo music and got me the SX 5 string jazz bass after I mentioned I saw your 6 string SX review! Been a while since I played a passive bass but I was shocked by the quality and the sound! I use it as my main recording bass now! Thank you for your channel and thanks for your reviews and changing my mind to the lower end! LOL! PEACE, Bro!

I've been watching all your video that you be showing all the bases and stuff and I want to know that what kind of string it would not put a neck into a bow what the best thing that you use

A nice bass player can make a tub and strings sound good. And you sir are nice

Great video! You're the reason I bought a Glarry GIB bass. I'm an older female that's new to playing bass, only started about 8 months ago but I'm loving it. I can tell you really care about helping your subscribers. Thanks for all you do!

today i ordered a J&D 75 jazz bass! my first bass and now i found your channel! Super excited to learn a lot from you and your videos! keep up that golden passion and ill take notes!!

Really appreciate your advice, your style and your point of view. What a great service you provide. And I love those white pickup covers.

Thank you for what you’re doing keep up the good work and I’ll keep praying for you.

Your enthusiasm is inspiring. I subscribed immediately and I'm looking forward to learning from you. Thanks for what you do so well.

Keep that content coming bruh! I've been searching for a bass to purchase to get back into playing after a loooooong hiatus! Thanks bruh!

You're a good man, Bully. Your totally honest approach and analysis is refreshing. I have some more expensive basses but I might just buy a Glarry based on your videos. Thanks.

Excellent review and very informative. I ordered a Glarry GP in that same color blue as you have. Thank you for the 1 year update.

I ordered a Glarry bass the other day. The price and quality were a match for me. I just found your review on the company's product. I enjoyed your passion in playing and watching you have fun doing it. Now, I can't wait till the bass arrives. Thank you. Peace

I'm always impressed at the sound that comes from these electronics. The pickup sounds darn good and you get the whole instrument for the cost of a brand name pickup

Man I love your channel, many thanks for all you do ☺👍

Bully, I really enjoy your channel and reviews! I have been playing for 29 years. I have some relatively high end stuff, but recently bought a couple Glarry guitars. After a proper set-up, they play great! I just ordered a J Bass and a P Bass and can't wait to try them out! I have to say I really appreciate your reviews of Glarry instruments. A lot of reviewers are overly harsh on these instruments, but I firmly believe they are great for the price point. I would have loved to have had instruments of this quality for this price when I was learning years ago. I think Glarry should be commended for putting instruments that are this good of quality into people's hands for such a reasonable price. It opens a world of music to people who might not have the opportunity otherwise. Thanks for the work you do and God Bless!

I bought 2 Glarry’s because of your direct influence and honesty. Thank you

I'm a part time bass player and have watched your videos for years now. Love them all and learned a lot but I must say the next best thing to listening to your bass playing is watching the expression on you face as you play. You make my day. Thanks.

Thanks for an honest review, I'm new to the bass and with covid going on I wanna pick up the bass learn something new but with all the brands and prices ranging from budget friendly to sky high you my friend have me sold, thanks 👍

Because of your video I decided on the Glarry Bass as I am just beginning my interest in Bass!!! I’ll be ordering it today! Thanks again brother!!! God bless!

Always Bully,,great vid,,let's get people on to these instruments!

Thanks for the review 👍🏻

Preciate the info, gonna pull the trigger and give it a shot!

Nice changes on the hardware and some smooth playing bass bro

I was just looking at some used beater P bass and Squire P bass models to tear apart and have some fun rebuilding. Now that I have watched your videos on the Glarry P Bass, I think I have found the bass I am going to get and screw around with rebuilding. Thanks!

Preciate the honest review

Keep up the good work 👍🏽 I just picked up a Glarry myself.

Thanks for info on the Jazz neck. The narrower neck was what I wanted.

I appreciate your review Doc. I'm a true bass player since age 10 and now 54 which I play keys way more than I do anything but I've been reviewing the Glarry 5 string jazz and now I'm convinced that this will be the purchase for me. I definitely do a lot of keybass but I want to keep my true bass player roots and feel so with that being said thanks again for your review and your passion my bass playing brother!!! #MadSalute

Hey that lick you was playing was groovy as hell and you actually had on a bassist face on this clip.

Cool! I may have to get one of these! Wanna learn bass, thanks for the great review✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻

I just ordered one. I watched before and after thanks 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💯💯💯

Great video, Bully! Hope to get one(fretless) lefty soon!

Bro thank you so much for the Video, and your one awesome bass player.😊👍

Hey man, thanks for what you're doing! I dig your playing too and learned a few licks from ya! I'm also considering a Fender Rumble for a recording/practice amp after hearing your Fender. Be well.

Bro, thanks for what you do. I pick up the Glarry Jazz Bass to learn. I AM a lifelong drummer. I AM 55 and I've been playing drum for 50+ years. During the pandemic I decided to learn bass. I found the Glarry and thought it was perfect for that. Knowing nothing about what a good & proper bass should be, I was pleased and have been progressing on the instrument. I did notice that thick neck issue when I finally pick up a real Fender Jazz Bass. But I also saw a KZread video where the great George Benson said he practices on an acoustic guitar because the extra effort needed to play it, makes playing his electrics way easier. So with that I dove in. Now I'm sending you a thanks for this video that tells me I did good. Keep it up, Sir. I'll be watching, for sure. Brent

1:58 "If you can get past how thick the neck is... this is a good platform to do some modifications to..." Sounds to me like that would be a good initial mod. :)

You're right about the options out there. You and a few other bassists on KZread (Dr. Funk, Scott's Bass Lessons, Davie504, Mono Neon, Charles Berthoud) made me want get my first bass. And rather than get a Squier I did some research and just ordered an Ibanez Talman TB100 PJ bass. Thanks for your videos!

Bout to pick up one of these after watching you play it. Thanks bruv!

Good vid. Thanks!

Thank you for these demos, Bully. I need a bass just as a back up bass as the church worship team only has 1 bassist. And of course I’m one of many guitarists 😂🤣. I think I’m going to have to get one of these.

Bully Thakidd I just subscribe to your channel recently and watch you with the P-Bass and the Jazz Bass and I decided to buy one, so that I can learn how to play, I am a newbie with no knowledge and I will be going through your videos to learn more so I can become as good as you are one day, I've choosen the GLARRY Full Size Electric Bass Guitar / Natural Wood. Thank you again your videos are on point

Nice video Bully and you’re right about not having to spend a lot of money to get started. I on the other hand I like certain Basses for the quality sound they give. I can see why people spend lots of money for some Basses. You have several basses and I know each of them sound different. Maybe not to the beginner but to a seasoned player you can hear the tonel differences.

I just got mine in! Pretty good bass for the money. I got the p-bass in schoolbus yellow! I really like it, and the neck thickness doesn't bother me at all, since I mostly play Martin acoustic guitars-it's very close to the same. Good video-keep 'me comin'.

Bought the Glarry Jazz bass and although it played fine I did some mods to it which included Rotosound flatwound strings, pearloid pickguard, CTS pots and Switchcraft audio jack along with cloth pushback wiring. I sanded the backside of the neck and addressed the fret issues which were minor. The last thing I did was drill holes in the electronics cavity and added some 1/4 lead wire with epoxy to address the neck dive. Overall I still have under $200 invested and I have a go to bass that I enjoy playing. The larger neck doesn't affect me either, this was a good purchase and I bought because of your review. Thanks!

Bully, I'm new to your channel, and I'm liking your subjective input an content on Glarry Gbass /Pbass.... Dude, not to mention your great playing skillz! Your old skool, and one cool cat! Great review my brother, peace out and bass on!🎸

I did get the Jazz bass! I have a fender Pbass 78' over 40 years...

Thank you so much for the video I was on the fence on getting one but you definitely changed my mind I’m still learning bass but I also drive truck for a living and really don’t want to have my 1000$ fender in the truck to practice on was looking for something cheaper that I would not be as upset if it got dinged up or stolen thanks for the game changer

It’s not always about the price or name on the headstock. James Jamerson, one of the greatest bass players of all time, began playing bass using a string attached to a stick and making ants dance by sticking the stick in their mound. It’s all about heart and passion.

nice review man!

Great playing my friend 👌

Just got my Gjazz last month and I'm very impressed! I will be modding it, but I'm almost sad that was my plan from the beginning b/c It's pretty good as-is.

Good vid, very informative!

Nicely said sir you're absolutely right these are amazing for the price. Maybe start with this or deck it out then when you're ready get a nice squier. I love squier but these Garry's are go to to noodles around

Upgrade the pickups and the tuners and with a proper setup you'll have a pretty good good bass at a little more than half the price of a Squier Affinity. If you buy the Squier you will still want to upgrade the pickups and the tuners.

Thanks Frat (I'm a Que). I want to start learning the Bass so this was good video.. I could take this to a repair guy and just tweak it to fix any flaws and work on my fingers (I'm not going to be sounding good for a while). Be well!

Thanks for showing me how to trick out my gallery jazz bass

Just tube amp huh? Lol I like your style man , thinking about getting my grandson one of these , great video thank you

I have a five string Glarry because I saw you playing the four string I saw that they were affordable so I looked into the website and saw they made a five string that was very affordable at the time I did not have a five string so I purchased it and I have not looked back .thank you for the video

Allan that was funky brother! I am an older brother in my late 50s who wants to learn the bass. Looking forward to communicating with you, so you can give me some tips and guidance on how to reach that level to learn to play the bass with confidence.

Thank you bro god bles you 🙏

Brother I enjoyed listening to your words and definitely your playing I am very much interested in learning the base learning all different genres of the base and again I just want to say thank you I am actually online right now looking up the Glarry GIB Electric 5 string Bass guitar ( Sunset Color)

Great video

Cool man. Yeah he's a great dude

Excellent point that they do not have to spend a ton of money to get started! A wise investment is a Fender Rumble amp. The 25W ones can be had for cheap, especially used, and are good for practice and figuring out songs in the house.

Awsome bro. Cool. Omg, I've seen some guitar sites that have 2&3&4&5,000$ basses. Whewwww !!! That kind of spending is for the rich. I have even seen an $11,000 bass. LOL It's crazy. I'm glad you have proved you can get good sounds w/o big spending. I like your groove. I've never heard of Glarry, now I have. Right, ok I'll pray for ya. These are really tryin times. But peace out bro. I hope more stay safe. Peace.

Thank you

The mom part was awesome 😊

Looking at a Glarry GIB right now. Poor boy but want a bass to play around with! At the price,.. if the neck is too thick,.. I'll take a belt sander to it! 🤣😂 Saw your video,.. just saw this one and,.. really like your critique and approach! Also,.. agree with the mods! Especially the color choices of your mods. Much better looking!

I just bought one. The intonation was perfect right out of the box and stays in perfect tune. I use a Peterson Strobe tuner. The Glarry short scale neck is small almost like a guitar. The tone is excellent. I’m literally shocked at the quality for $79

Great video.

Hey brother. How's it going? Thank you for the insight. I do have a Glarry Tele that looks good, feels good, but sounds terrible. I'm thinking after watching your video about the basses that I'm just going to swap out the hardware, including pickups, and that should improve it massively. Thank you so much bro. Now I will be able to count that guitar into my collection as number 19. :)

I got the natural wood one with white pick guard. I was so surprised how nice it was, I bought another identical one. So I got 2! I don't think the ones I got have a thick neck like that. Actually they're pretty thin and fast. Great basses for the price!

I’d like you to do a bass solo, with any of your best jazz basses.

Nice review

The white pickups look great on it

I bought that same Jazz bass in 5 string about three weeks ago and i have to say that the neck is not that much thicker than the rest of my basses, maybe there have been changes? The neck is very stable and I actually like it just like it is. I did change the pickups with cheap pickups because the original pups are a little dark for me. It was 129 not 75 but it is the buy of the century and the fit and finish is very good. I'm a seasoned Bass player and I'm impressed with the price point of Glarry. BTW: you have 24K subs...

Wow, it´s been a year, feels like you got those a few months ago

i agree with this up load...Dr Cuadra here.....

I'm very impressed. 75 is a hell of a deal

I play. I dont buy stuff because of value for later. Some stuff yes but not my rigs. That being said. I buy what i can afford and the savings has allowed me to purchase tools to learn more into the craft. Which further saves me money for another rig. Subbed.

are those black tapewounds on the jazz? Where did you opt to get the black hardware? would sound awesome thru my homebuilt 215 cab and a marktte800......good work !

A good inexpensive bass to gig with is better than none at all.. My friend gigs with a $75.00 SX Jazz bass, he's had it for eight years.. Replaced the Pots, Pickups and tuners.

Might have get me one of these p-basses for flats!!!

I got some La Bella flats for my Glarry j-bass. I love it. Felt weird buying strings that are dang near the price of the bass, lol. But I think they definitely add to the instrument

Looks like you are still rocking the fender stage 800 combo? If so nice!! U sold me on that amp last year when I was in the market.

I am over seas so these Glarry is one of the only affordable options I am feeling that jazz bass the pbass didn’t sound very pbass like to me from the audio, but I will take your word for it

I just ordered a Glarry burning fire bass. I’m going to throw some EMG Geezer Butler PJ pickups in it.
