Tones from the flatwounds were amazing.. I've been using flats for more than 20 years, okay everything from metal to motown, they are always are consistent.

Sounds awesome, I have a VM 70s Squire and it became my main bass.

Enjoyed the video! I too reviewed the GJazz bass a few weeks ago, but I like hearing what an actual bass player thinks about it. 👍

This is my first bass. I actually put flatwounds on it just because they're a bit easier on the fingers when starting out. I'm pretty happy!

IMA buy a Glarry Ibanez copy, next month (love the looks of it; great reviews) 🎸

Thank you for making this review of this guitar! I will for sure be buying this guitar since it looks great for beginners!

In order to reduce the thickness of the neck you will need an electronic caliper to measure at the 1st fret , the 10th fret, 17th fret to know where you`re starting from and where to stop. The maple neck is hard wood so you`ll need an electric sander plus 80 ,120, 240, 400 sand papers.

At 85 bucks, if it stays in tune for 3 songs and doesn’t slice your fingers off, it’s great.

A change in pickups and electronics should definitely be the first thing to happen if you get this bass. Thats what im going to do

watched your review and went and ordered a sunburst one !

I bought this bass too, for 86 bucks you can’t beat it. Glad you did the flat wounds. I don’t care for the neck either but for as much as I need a bass (guitar guy) it’s fine. Wondering what other pickups might sound like, maybe you’ll do a vid with a good option?

What amp would you use?

I saw a video on their P bass and the neck and body wasn't fully attached. So I was a little skeptical on buying one. But I bought the Wood Green version which is actually beautiful for $80 on eBay and it came with a crappy strap crappy cord and a crappy amplifier. But with that said the base itself at that price point is actually not only very playable but it seems very nice. Now the strings are garbage and I would replace those and I had to adjust my action just a tad but out-of-the-box it was pretty much ready to play for a beginner wouldn't have any complaints if I had bought it at my first bass guitar. I've been playing for 30 years and have had some beautiful instruments through the years.

I'm getting pretty blown away by glarry. They should be spending money advertising at school events. This seems like perfect company for parents with kids into music and just starting out.

You had said that you had tested a few of the glarry basses is the feel of the neck the same as all the other bass models ? Or did you notice any difference between the other models?

yea so im gonna buy this bass, cause i like all the things abt it and your review, ill just sand down the neck if its too sharp ( just a little tho ig ill watch a tutorial)

Pretty damn decent tone!

Is the body the traditional Thickness of a fender J?

I just bought the !!! GLARRY Bass Guitar Full Size 4 String Exquisite Stylish Bass with Power Line and Wrench Tool (Natural Wood) Damn fonts... Anyone... It was on Amazon... What a beauty... Smooth and silky little brat !!!

I love my Glarry JB. I love the baseball bat neck, and the fret ends on mine aren't bad. For electronics, I had a complete control plate taken off of a Fender Jazz Bass that I paired with some Wilkinson WOJB pickups. And honestly, I'm not so sure it was worth swapping them. In my experience, the tuners are kind of crappy. Mine are rough and shed the chrome plating when you restring. Plus, if you put too much tension on the string while winding them, the gears disengage. But it somehow stays in tune just fine. Overall, absolutely worth buying, you don't even need a reason.

Thanks for sharing bro! Yeah, I think maybe some of the Glarry's vary with setup slightly model to model. The P I had didn't have any fret issues. For me the only downside, really, is the neck. To me, it's not comfortable to play. But some seem to like it!

How chunky are the necks? What would you compare them to?

@RumblinMan

Жыл бұрын

Man, it’s chunk-city. I would compare them to the thickest old baseball bat you can find, but with NO finish. This bass in particular had one of the worst necks I’ve ever encountered.

2 years later, did you sand down the neck and how did that go?

Man, honestly, I sold this bass because I just plain didn’t like it.

I originally posted a comment saying this would sound great with flatwounds and then your segment with flats shows up. Oops😂 Great work as always. I'm gonna guess that the pickups you are putting in are gonna be Porter pickups😏

Rumbling man,What's up it's been a while! I'm pro Glarry all the way,I really think we're watching the birth of a guitar legend here with Glarry,I've said it before,everyone starts somewhere,look at the first fender p bass,it was a basic slab body,no bells or whistle's bass, then over time it got improved,if you've noticed with Glarry,every time they launch something new it's a bit better than the last,yes the price tag goes up,but eventually I think their going to be putting out pro level,Fender comparable instruments. I don't know if you've seen the GP 2s yet,(you should try to get one on the channel!) But their as good as a squier if not better,they got stock Wilkinson pickups,a synthetic bone nut,their nice looking basses,glarrys doing a run of like 150 of the first run,I'm hoping to get one,not only to go with my custom Glarry 5 string jazz,which brings me to another Glarry I highly recommend you checkout,the 5 string jazz is KILLER, way better quality than the 80$ basses.

Your face telegraphs your shifts

Quite a lot of fret rattle.

Glarry's are a piece of shit. The one I bought felt like it was made of cardboard. The setup was horrible and it sounded like shit. I made adjustments but there was no hope. They offer a full refund if you are not happy but I just gave mine to a kid. He was happy.

Dude that mix sound like the bass mix on .....and justice for all hahaha.
