I really love this bass. I'm updating my review now that I have had the bass for a few weeks. I've been playing it straight out of the box. I did install strap locks right off the bat. It's a tradition to me to put strap locks on all my guitars. I dropped a friends G&L Tele flat on the dance floor one night before stepping on stage here in Austin Texas. It did not seem to hurt the guitar but it sure humiliated me. He only had the strap lock nubs on the guitar which gave nothing to hold a strap. ...

I really love this bass. I'm updating my review now that I have had the bass for a few weeks. I've been playing it straight out of the box. I did install strap locks right off the bat. It's a tradition to me to put strap locks on all my guitars. I dropped a friends G&L Tele flat on the dance floor one night before stepping on stage here in Austin Texas. It did not seem to hurt the guitar but it sure humiliated me. He only had the strap lock nubs on the guitar which gave nothing to hold a strap. (Update Jan 17, 2021 I did finally get around to setting the intonation which is now rock solid in the land of south of the 12th fret). Well strung from the factory so at $16.50 for a new set of EB SS strings I'll play the ones that came on it for awhile which is just fine. he crew that made this bass last was having a good day. It's great to sit on the couch and plucked unplugged. I received my GIB 4-string bass yesterday. It's a beautiful guitar and after going over it in detail I have to say this is a flawless instrument. A great value for my money. Fast shipping plus it was well packed and of course arrived totally damage free. Thanks Glarry for providing quality musical instruments at affordable prices.

Really happy with this bass. Meets all my expectations.

Packaging was single box & torn up. Lots of holes Gib is fantastic. Action right on. Intonation real close. No scratches amazingly looking at the box. Styrofoam was also broken.

My sayggter loves it

Glarry is amazing !! If you want some decent instruments for cheap that look profesh ? Right here's the spot man ! So far I got 2 guitars a stand some strings a drum kit looking into an amp in the near future .. Glarry's legit man ..

I'm really liking this bass. When I received it, part of the nut was cracked off. I contacted customer service and they didn't have a replacement nut but they told me if I purchased one myself that they would reimburse me. I purchased a nut and installed it myself and it plays great. Customer service came through and reimbursed me. Great bass and great customer service. Thanks Glarry! Thanks Bully Thakidd for recommending Glarry basses, so much bang for the buck!

The bass is beyond my expectations. Shipping was fast. If you are looking for a bass to start playing, this is it. A few simple upgrades and it would compare to the more expensive guitars. The only regret I have is that I didn't order a hard case with it

on September 04, 2020

This has to be the best sounding Ibanez bass I've ever played the ease of play and the sound quality is just as good as the big name brands I love this guitar.

on August 28, 2020

I am an absolute noob. I've owned this bass for one week, and i absolutely love it. It stays in tune quite well, has a decent range of tones, and didn't break the bank. I really have no complaints about the finish, etcetera, because it has exceeded my expectations there. In all honesty, I feel like I got a great deal for my money, so for a beginner like myself, its the perfect bass.

on August 28, 2020

I love it. I will be ordering a 5 string next.

on August 27, 2020

I ordered the Glarry GIB bass guitar in burlywood and it's just been awesome since day one. It was shipped to my house surprisingly fast. All I had to do right out the box was some very minor tuning, and I was good to go in just a couple of minutes.. Love that it came with a strap, power cord, etc.--things I would have had to buy and have shipped to me separately. I've already recommended Glarry to a friend as THE place to go for budding or living room musicians.

on August 19, 2020

I am very pleased with this bass guitar! What a value! Shipping was fast and the guitar was well packed. I'm impressed with this company. thank you!

Let's be honest you can't expect much for $100 bucks right? Wrong! This Bass is AWESOME! I watched the videos and read the reviews but I just had to experience it for myself and I'm so glad I did. Extremely nice beginner Bass and maybe more, you can't lose.

on August 15, 2020

I am very pleased with the quality of this bass. I lowered the action a bit, tuned it up, and it works quite nicely. I had known Glarry would have some nice quality instruments that a beginner could buy for a relatively low price and this guitar fits the bill.

on August 10, 2020

Just received my bass, and checked everything before playing it. Had to loosen the truss rod just a tad and tune it up. Didn't have to make anymore adjustments on it. Best bass I've ever had. Looking forward to being a repeat customer

on July 05, 2020

Super pleased with the quality and playability. Would be a bargain at double the price. I was surprised how light this model is, after seeing reviews of the P and J models which noted "neck dive." No such problem with this model. Very pleased with it.

on May 31, 2020

I purchased this bass not expecting much because of the price, I was really surprised at the quality of the build. The action is set really high so I did a full setup on it and put a nice set of cobalt flatwound strings on it, Plays very nice, looks spectacular! Could not be more pleased with this company!

on May 11, 2020

I read and watched many reviews prior to purchasing this bass, so i was expecting to really enjoy it and appreciate it's quality for such a budget price. Well, when i received it, I was still surprised at how awesome this bass really is. I'm a first time bass player, but play and own many 6 string electric and acoustic guitars so i can definitely spot quality. This bass has it! The fit and finish are spot on with no cosmetic flaws.

I read and watched many reviews prior to purchasing this bass, so i was expecting to really enjoy it and appreciate it's quality for such a budget price.

I'm a first time bass player, but play and own many 6 string electric and acoustic guitars so i can definitely spot quality. This bass has it! The fit and finish are spot on with no cosmetic flaws. The pickups themselves had become unadhered to the pickup housing in shipping so i did have to superglue them before i was able to play the bass. Easy enough. After noodling around with the bass a bit i feel that it's very playable. It's very lightweight which i can appreciate b/c i'm a small statured female. The neck is quite large (something i'm not used to with my guitars) but i can still reach the E string easily enough. The fretwork is above average with no sharp frets. As for the tone I can't really comment on since this is the first bass i've played. But paired with a small Fender Rumble 15, the sound is crisp and clear and fret buzz is very minimal. The buzzing is probably attributable to my novice playing. All in all, I'm extremely happy with my purchase!

on May 06, 2020

Really nice bass! Great sound and beautiful design. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality for the price. My teen was extracted. He loves it. This pic says it all. It's a really beautiful bass. Will purchase more things from here!

Bought the GIb Electric bass from Glarry, it arrived in 4 days in perfect condition. I previously owned the Glarry Jazz bass and really liked it. However the Gib bass is totally awesome . I don't just like it, I love it. The tones and sounds are amazing. the only thing I had to do is adjust the bridge to get rid of some string tension and bam its an explosive bass guitar!! Thanks Glarry.. Love it!!!

Product reviewed is the GIB Bass with Sunset finish. Very pleased with the look. The only flaw I observed is a small nick on the top edge of the headstock, which doesn't bother me at all. I made no adjustments to the setup. The strings were properly de-tuned for shipping, so it took a little time to set the right tension, but I'm happy with how it stays in tune (this bass has sealed tuners). The neck is unfinished - sort of like a baseball bat with no lacquer. It is neck-heavy, so using a high-f ...

I made no adjustments to the setup. The strings were properly de-tuned for shipping, so it took a little time to set the right tension, but I'm happy with how it stays in tune (this bass has sealed tuners). The neck is unfinished - sort of like a baseball bat with no lacquer. It is neck-heavy, so using a high-friction strap helps to compensate when I'm standing. I usually play with it on my lap, and it's quite comfortable that way. The frets are what I'd call vintage-style (not jumbo) and the edges are neither super-smooth nor are they sharp. The angled headstock and passive pickups cater to my personal preferences. Having Volume and Tone knobs for both P and J gives you plenty of flexibility. Your amp setup is going to have the biggest impact on your sound. Variables such as EQ, Overdrive, Compression, and Noise Gate allow for endless possibilities. My best experience so far was playing straight into a Reverend Hellhound (a tube guitar amp designed similar to the old Fender Bassman) in 60w mode with very little gain and little or no reverb. It sounded fabulous. Adjusting the amp's bass, mid, and treble knobs gave me just what I wanted to hear. I'm happy with the output of the pickups as well. If you notice obnoxious hum, try reducing the output of the bridge pickup (worked for me). Glarry, you done good! Glad I got mine for $89.99 before they sold out.

I enjoy the 4 string basses that I have bought from Glarry, this one is awesome.

on March 21, 2020

Great for the price.

on March 12, 2020

Received in great shape, quickly and well packed. I did a tiny bit of setup on the bass, but basically it only required tuning. Finish of the wood was excellent and there were no fit/finish flaws at all. I'm just amazed that you can get an instrument this decent for under a hundred bucks ! Came with a dust case, tools, cable and strap. The accessories weren't first quality, but all were usable and remarkable again at such a low price. I'm looking for another Glarry now.

I've had great luck with these relatively unknown guitar brands. Currently have a Wolf (unbelievable !), a Harley-Benton acoustic, an Artist TC-59 "telecaster" and a few others.

on March 12, 2020

I love it, so glad I went with the one I chose.

on March 12, 2020

F@$king amazing guys thanks!

on February 17, 2020

This is my first bass, and I'm really liking it. It required major lowering of the string action and a couple of frets were high, but a little bit of setup and fret leveling made it play very nicely. I would definitely buy another Glarry instrument.

Ordered a GIB Bass in Burrlywood finish. Got it in 4 days! Box as in good shape. I was pleasantly surprised it was perfect. Neck was straight, string height was very close and intonation was spot on. Good job Glarry. I was so pleased with this entry level bass that I turned around an ordered a GST 6 String guitar in sunburst finish. It arrived as quickly as the bass did and in the same shape.
