Very good value and plays nicely without a lot of set up. My main complaint is the finish, you can see the circular buffer marks on the front of guitar but not a big deal. I would buy another and I just might.

My story is a little complicated, so please bear with me. I originally ordered and received the Sunset colored Strat model with black pickguard and maple fingerboard. When it arrived, I found unfortunately that, somewhere along the line, a couple of the screws bolting the neck onto the body had been torn partially out of their holes, leaving splintered wood, and indicating that the guitar had experienced a fairly substantial trauma of some sort. Otherwise it was a great-looking guitar. Cu ...

Otherwise it was a great-looking guitar. Customer Service was very nice (via email), and we quickly worked out an agreement under which I decided on the same color, only in the Telecaster style, and I paid the additional $20.00 to cover the cost differential on the Tele. And, rather than having me send back the damaged Strat model, the representative told me I could just keep it. I'll probably give it to a friend who likes to tinker, and see if he can do some repair work and pass it on to someone in need. I have since received the Tele-style model, and it is very nice. I decided to upgrade the bridge saddles, but basically I found that 1) the neck and fretwork are good; and 2) the nut is actually cut with reasonable accuracy-- hooray! I put a new set of 10's on it, and it plays and sounds great!

Not bad at all! I love the feel of the neck! Great job Glarry! I setup the neck and got the intonation set. Plugged into the headrush pedal board amp simulator and this guitar rocks for the money! It definitely has a Stratocaster style sound. Once i dialed in the same type rig Jimmy Hendrix used, The glarry guitar had no problems with getting that old strat tone. The pickups are pretty quiet and work perfect when useing studio expander gates and noise filters. The guitar is as quiet as a peep. G ...

The packaging could be better, the box showed that it had a rough trip. The Guitar had damage on the head stock, looking like it was dropped on that side. Double boxing would probably take care of that. The finish and playability were good upon arrival needing only the action lowered a bit, and the pickup height adjusted. The electronics all work, the bridge & tremolo functional, the controls all move well and the tuners actually work pretty good. The sound is good, and for the price its a steal ...

The shipping packaging is the only con I could come up with. Great value & playability for a great price.

Great at the price. Out of the box string action was really high and the pickups were almost level with the pickguard, so expect a fair amount of set-up work. I am a complete novice at setting up guitars, but after a few youtube videos and some trial and error it's set-up nicely.

It's a beginner level guitar. It needed a truss rod tweak. New strings and a saddle height adjustment. It is now completely playable. It has one of the nicest necks I have ever seen on a guitar in my 25 years around guitars. There are no sharp fret ends and the neck is rolled very nicely. Great fret size and a joy to play. All electronics are solid and it stays in tune amazingly well. Negatives..finish quality is not the greatest but no glaring flaws. And the tuners are cheap but, as mentioned, ...

All electronics are solid and it stays in tune amazingly well. Negatives..finish quality is not the greatest but no glaring flaws. And the tuners are cheap but, as mentioned, they hold tune, just kind of sloppy or tight depending on which string your tuning. Overall this is the nicest guitar I have ever bought for a mere $63.98 delivered. Better than many I have paid considerably more for. Plus you get a bag. Something you don't even get with most $500 guitars!

I had to raise the bridges on the upper strings to remove the buzzing frets, and also lengthen the lower strings to tune the octave. We're good to go now. Tone is good. Low distortion pickups and wide tone control. I especially like the maple neck. Everyone who has reviewed the instrument, each described a different problem. But for under $70 and a little setup time you can't beat the Glarry.

A real bargain for the price.

I loved this guitar!! is very pretty, has a great weight to it, I havent tried it with an amp yet so no comment on that. the only issue i have with it is that theres a dead fret, easy fix tho

Fast shipping, great price and my guitar looks and plays great!! I love it. I will be doing some upgrades in the future but not right away. Thanks Glarry

I gave this a 4 star only because there was a small hole in the body where the neck meets the body pocket, it did not cause any playing problems but IMO Quality Control should have caught this. The neck angle was off on mine, had to shim the neck to improve action, pickups are weak but for the cost of the guitar I cannot complain. The finish and color are really nice, what I like best is the neck with its chunky feel and natural finish feeling, after doing a fret level and dressing this guitar ...

Thank you Glarry for making these guitars affordable, I will be looking at the Tele style next.

Very good for the price.

For the price of the GST, you can't go wrong with Glarry! I did have to do a set up on the guitar which was expected. The claw for the springs on the trem was installed to the extreme right which made all the springs pull at an extreme angle to the right. "easy fix" and I did have to replace the tuners. A few of the tuners slipped to much to be able to tune it properly but I believe most people would replace the tuners anyway, I had planned on that before I bought the guitar. The neck was very ...
