I am very surprised with this Glarry GJazz Bass Guitar. I wasn't expecting much for the price, but the guitar blew me away. Sounds excellent, neck is straight and smooth and excellent finish. No fret buzzing at all, and this is with all the original included components, no upgrades yet. My only complaint is the neck is very thick, if Glarry could get the neck down to jazz bass specs, that would be great. All in all, great bass for the beginner or the pro. Thank you Glarry!

Thank you Glarry! It feels good, plays good, and it didn't make me broke. I'm still amazed.

I have played guitar for nearly 60 years. As of late I have been starting to do some recording in a small home studio. I have never played bass, so I decided I would try to do my own bass lines. Ihave a 1970 fretless Fender P bass that was my brothers. I can't play it. So I was looking for an inexpensive neck and found this for less than the neck. The finish is perfect, the neck was straight, the runners were tight and smooth. Strings were ok. The electronics were very quiet for single coil ...

The finish is perfect, the neck was straight, the runners were tight and smooth. Strings were ok. The electronics were very quiet for single coil pumps. The bridge and saddles worked fine, not high dollar stuff but functional. I received the guitar in cold dry weather which is responsible for the few fret sprouts. The frets were level so I dressed the ends, lowered the nut a bit, set the action and it plays great. Buy this bass. If you cant do it, have set up and you will love it. Any new guitar I have ever owned needed set up some worse than others. That's why I learned to do it. This is truly a great value, shipping was fast and best of all I can play it and it records well. Great job Glarry. I don't know how you do it for the money.

As a guitar player for more than 50 years and the owner of a Fender Jazz Bass, I have to say I am very pleased and surprised at the quality of my Glarry Gjazz Bass. Other than a dead muffled sounding E string, I could find no problems with the bass after changing the string to an Ernie Ball 105. There were no sharp fret ends on the neck and the bass needed very little setup. Tuners seem solid and the overall sound of the bass is fine. This base is excellent value for the money and I would not he ...

Muy buena compra me gusta el bajo

I now have the strat copy and the Jazz bass . For the price these are great starter or mod instruments. Very pleased and would definitely purchase from them again . The bass needed very little adjustment and I'm keeping it as is ! Thanks again .

Best bass for the money. Plays, sounds and looms great

I've been playing bass for 10 years and with back issues now, my Fender is too heavy now, After reading reviews and watching videos, I said why not. I does need a little setup but any bas out the box does. I was surprised at the build quality. No fret bite. wow..Cant say that for the $300 Ibanez I played at the store. The tone is rich and deep. This weight is perfect. only 8 pounds. Really makes a difference on the back. Band mates love it. I only wish the blue was a little brighter but it is a ...

This weight is perfect. only 8 pounds. Really makes a difference on the back. Band mates love it. I only wish the blue was a little brighter but it is a good looking bass. It's gonna be my go to player and the fender will be detuned for playing reggae.

This is my first bass and I could not be more impressed. The finish, build quality and sound are all unbelievable for such a reasonably priced instrument. I highly recommend this guitar to both beginners and intermediate players!

on December 27, 2019

Amazing product, perfect for my first Bass as far as price and perfect for a new Bass as far as performance. Glad I found this one! Treasure!

on December 16, 2019

I think this bass is great. got it before stated delivery date. needed very little setup.intonation was very close, neck was great. will change out the nut and strings after a while. tuned very easy.

on December 14, 2019

The bass was packaged well with styrofoam all around it. I read several reviews and lubed the tuners before trying to tune it. The neck was very straight but for me the action was too high. I had to file the nut and lower the saddles. I had problems with only one fret buzzing out on the A string. I fixed it with some very light sanding on the fret in question. It sounds very good through my amp. A little bit heavy on the neck side but not too bad. The body is very light and the finish was great. ...

Great bass! Just a little expected tuning out of the box & it's sounding great and plays easily. Mfg. quality, fit & finish are beyond expectations for this this price, or even for something that would cost more. Fast shipping too & No disappointments here.Glarry delivers a lot, for just a little.

Great Jazz Bass

on December 01, 2019

Excellent constructability! My son loves it... Will need to adjust the action a bit, that's all! And for the price, its un beatable.

I've wanted a Jazz style bass for quite a while. Since I'm not a great player (mediocre would be an apt description of my abilities) and bass is not a primary instrument, I did not want to buy anything expensive for my first bass.

I've wanted a Jazz style bass for quite a while. Since I'm not a great player (mediocre would be an apt description of my abilities) and bass is not a primary instrument, I did not want to buy anything expensive for my first bass. So, when I saw this at such a price, I could not pass it up this time. I had seen many inexpensive bass guitars with a P/J pickup configuration (split coil neck, single coil bridge, ala Precision bass and Jazz bass respectively) , but I wanted a straight Jazz pickup set. I got it with this instrument. I some ways I was disappointed, in others I was pleased. The disappointment came in the neck shape and size, and, to a lesser degree, the electronics. First, this has a very big neck, very fat, very wide. I was looking for the narrow neck of a Jazz type bass, this is not it. That being said, it is well made, and quite solid. Even with the bigger neck, I have little problem banging out notes on this up and down. Second, this is expected at the price, the pickups are quite micro phonic and a little noisy with some overdrive. The main reason for this is they are not wax potted which is quite reasonable for a bass in this price range. A simple pickup upgrade would fix this. The good. It has the Jazz bass growl and mid range punch I was looking for out of a bass, and with a single coil, Jazz style, middle (or neck, depends on how you say it and what you call it) it does not have the smooth boomy sound of a P-style bass pickup, much tighter and more mid range sound. The setup is good enough to play, but it could be better, again, this is to be expected on such a low priced instrument, room for improvement. The fit and finish are very good, no issues that I have found as of yet. I love the natural, unpainted, look of the body, reminiscent of the F-type Jazz basses from the '70s. I am an experienced tech with as soldering iron and have replaced many, many pickups in my guitars over the years, haven't opened it up yet. Overall, this is good stuff.

For This Price I Could Not Be More Happy. I prefer Basswood for tone so thats a bonus for me, i prefer the bare wood on my necks so thats also a bonus for me. The neck pocket could be a little tighter, the pick guard has one little spot thats not perfect and the rout for the bridge puckup isnt perfect but none of that really matters. It sounds really deep, warm and transparent with no ground noise when both single coils are the same volume. It feels especially great to hold or stand with becau ...

It sounds really deep, warm and transparent with no ground noise when both single coils are the same volume. It feels especially great to hold or stand with because its lightweight basswood and the neck is thick like a C cut- these two aspects together really help round out the tone in the low mids. I have zero regrets. Perfect for beginners or Pros who know its not the gear but the player that makes all the difference. Now im going to order the P Bass.

on November 13, 2019

I was very eager to get my hands on one of these guitars, as I had seen a few YouTube unboxing videos. I was not disappointed. It arrive quickly and in perfect condition. I quickly tuned it up (not set it up as the was done already). I am not gonna tell you that this is a good guitar for the price, I'm gonna tell you that this is a good guitar!!! I am thinking of going back for the P Bass version

on November 06, 2019

Glarry is the best. I was led to them by Max of GuitarMax on youtube. And he was right a ridiculously low price for an awesome guitar. I will always buy from Glarry because they sell guitars that other companies sell for twice or three times as much at a mere fraction of the price. Do yourself a favor buy one today you won't be disappointed. Glarry Rocks!!!!

I am a guitarist that decided to study bass and needed a practice guitar. I saw the "Bully the KID" video and I was impressed, so I purchased the sunburst and it was better than expected! The finish is flawless. I tuned it up and it was playable out of the box. Neck straight. No Buzz or Hum. No real issues. The action was a little higher than I like, so I lowered and intonated it. I love the feel and the sound of this guitar. It is comfortable to play. Tuners and bridge are ok. The only cosme ...

I love the feel and the sound of this guitar. It is comfortable to play. Tuners and bridge are ok. The only cosmetic mod was to change the pick guard to black. Later on I may decide to upgrade the pickups to Dimarzo 123. Anyway I will definitely get another bass guitar from Glarry.

If you want to spend less than $200 on a full size bass, buy a glarry. I purchased and received in April 2019, and have proceeded to beat the S*** out of it since. I had Initially planned to buy the P bass, but it was sold out and I lacked self control and patience, so I bought the jazz bass, in sunset as black was the only other option at the time. Mine personally has the old style headstock (I.E. the fender one) The neck, head and nut are identical to that on the Glarry P bass, but even with ...

If you want to spend less than $200 on a full size bass, buy a glarry. I purchased and received in April 2019, and have proceeded to beat the S*** out of it since. I had Initially planned to buy the P bass, but it was sold out and I lacked self control and patience, so I bought the jazz bass, in sunset as black was the only other option at the time. Mine personally has the old style headstock (I.E. the fender one) The neck, head and nut are identical to that on the Glarry P bass, but even with Meh sized hands, its pretty manageable. Build quality: Whats Bad? - the Strap Buttons dont have aggressive enough screws. they will get loose. the screws may need to be replaced. - all mounting holes (pick guard, bridge, tuners etc) were not drilled pre-installation, leaving sawdust and wood chips under the hardware. - the white pick guard is just ugly with the sunset, and covers what is a really nice finish. a clear pick guard option would be nice. -The instrument cable is actual cheap, and will probably fail after a couple weeks. spend $15 on amazon or at GC and get a decent cable Whats good? - frets all have smooth edges - tuners have a nice feel - really playable and versatile at the price point. The Neck: The neck on this bass Deserves its own section. It is 2JZ levels of overbuilt. The stock String gauges measure E: .100 A: .80 D: .65 and G: .45 in the spirit of absurdity, I attempted to move up to .130 .110 .85 .70 and tuned to standard, the neck was barely bowed, and the .70 broke, the core stripping out of the tuning peg completely. So if you don't do anything stupid and/or weird, the neck shouldn't give you trouble. Look at it this way, This bass cost what a carton of cigarettes does. even if you dont know what a bass is, or how to play one, buy it. its cheap, its fun to slap and it makes bass sounds.

The online reviews of the Glarry bass are quite accurate.For the price of this bass it is a superior product. It does require some setup as do most instruments regardless of price. But in my opinion what is really superior is the customer service.I ordered directly from Glarry because of the reputation for good customer service.It turned out that I had a truss rod problem and it was taken care by a few emails in days not weeks.

on October 21, 2019

The bass is good for the price, though the one I received had some issues. The pickup cavities were not centered with respect to the strings - the neck pickup should have been located 1 mm further towards the G string side, and the bridge pickup should have been located 2 mm towards the E string side. The action was too high even when the bridge saddles were in the lowest position, so a shim was needed in the neck pocket to lower it. There were a few frets that needed to be dressed a little ...

The action was too high even when the bridge saddles were in the lowest position, so a shim was needed in the neck pocket to lower it. There were a few frets that needed to be dressed a little to prevent buzzing, but the neck is overall straight, and feels solid (like it won't need lots of truss rod adjustment to maintain the action at the desired height). One of the height adjustment screws used for the bridge saddles needed to be replaced as the hex wrench wouldn't insert fully (because of a little metal burr that was preventing that). There were a few noticeable dents in the side of the neck and fingerboard near the nut, and the body wood at the neck pocket had some pretty rough edges were it thins out. I mentioned these concerns to Glarry, and received partial compensation for my purchase which was fair, in light of the defects and the work I needed to do to get the bass in shape to play. Overall, I am satisfied with the purchase - especially with the customer support I received.

If you are on the fence about ordering one of these then I urge you to do it. I watched a ton of reviews on YouTube before ordering mine and I'm extremely pleased with the J bass. I will be ordering a white p bass soon. I expect the quality to be on par with the J. Just get the bass. You'll be happy with it.

My daughter is really pleased with the base guitar, she's happy with the look and sound. The service was great, fast delivery.

I bought the Jazz Bass on a Wednesday and it was at my house on Thursday! I'm a drummer who's trying something different so I can't say anything about its playability, but it sounds great and it's a beautiful instrument. For the price point you get a lot! WTG, Glarry!

on September 30, 2019

Very pleased with this base. The neck has a nice satin finish that feels great and plays well. Only had to adjust the string height a little bit. The burlywood finish looks great. Great value.
