Very happy with this guitar. Looks and plays great right out of the box. Not a single blemish. Only small issue is neck needs adjustment and strings slightly high. Otherwise, PERFECT beginner guitar, actually better. Rich tone, clear, clean highs. I'm amazed at the quality for the price!

Well, I would say that for a complete beginner guitar, this item is OK. If the beginner discovers that they want to really continue and study music and guitar, then a better guitar would be in order. I ordered two guitars; I had to make a small tightening adjustment on the tuning pegs because two of them kept going out of tune . The aroma of polyurethane was strong, but it has since gone away . The customer service at Glarry's is excellent and here's why: I bought two guitars for two stud ...

Well, I would say that for a complete beginner guitar, this item is OK. If the beginner discovers that they want to really continue and study music and guitar, then a better guitar would be in order. I ordered two guitars; I had to make a small tightening adjustment on the tuning pegs because two of them kept going out of tune . The aroma of polyurethane was strong, but it has since gone away . The customer service at Glarry's is excellent and here's why: I bought two guitars for two students. One of them had a crack inside the body where the truss rod is housed. I sent an email to Glarry and they returned the cost of the guitar . In short, I think Glarry may be a strong force in the music business in the future as long as their quality control improves. The other economy guitars that sell for $68 to $78 are the same quality ~ ~ ~.

I rated this guitar for it's value relative to the price and what I wanted in purchasing it. Clearly, at these prices, one should not expect fit and finish to be on par with brand name guitars however, what I found was that the quality was much higher than what I expected. Did it have finish flaws? Yes. Did it have issues with setup? Yes. Was it playable as soon as the strings were tuned? Yes. Did the tone sound cheap or tinny? No. I found the guitar to be an excellent project guitar. I adjuste ...

I rated this guitar for it's value relative to the price and what I wanted in purchasing it. Clearly, at these prices, one should not expect fit and finish to be on par with brand name guitars however, what I found was that the quality was much higher than what I expected. Did it have finish flaws? Yes. Did it have issues with setup? Yes. Was it playable as soon as the strings were tuned? Yes. Did the tone sound cheap or tinny? No. I found the guitar to be an excellent project guitar. I adjusted the action by sanding down the removable plastic saddle. I took a sanding sponge to dress the fret edges and oil treated the fretboard. Finally, I put light Exlir 9 gauge strings as the standard set were causing the top of the soundboard to bow slightly. Now, I have a guitar that I simply love to play. I find that because I tinkered with it, I reach for it instead of my Breedlove and Taylor more often than not. Sure it is not close to those in terms of sound quality but for a grab and go guitar with no worries, it is the Glarry every time.
