Having just spent a couple of grand on Fender Telecasters, I decided to buy this as a "project" to update bits and pieces over the coming months. Firstly the blue burst finish is very nice, and I can't see any obvious flaws. It came with the strings tuned down a bit, which is good as there's not too much tension on the neck while it's being shipped. Speaking of the strings, the set it came with are horrible, very rough - get yourself a decent set of strings and change them immediately (I belie ...

Having just spent a couple of grand on Fender Telecasters, I decided to buy this as a "project" to update bits and pieces over the coming months. Firstly the blue burst finish is very nice, and I can't see any obvious flaws. It came with the strings tuned down a bit, which is good as there's not too much tension on the neck while it's being shipped. Speaking of the strings, the set it came with are horrible, very rough - get yourself a decent set of strings and change them immediately (I believe these ship with 9 to 42). It will need a decent setup as the string action is very high. The neck and fingerboard are lightly finished, which I quite like. Can't see any twists on the neck, and the fingerboard is even. The fret ends are a little rough, but not too bad and easily dealt with using a bit of light emery paper, and they could do with a light polish. The tuners are ok, but I expect them to be the first thing I will change.

Decent guitar is almost an exact copy of an 60s/70s Stratocaster. Beautiful finish is fairly soft and scratches easily, but it may not be completely cured. Strings are really awful - poor action and tone but a set of Ernie Ball Hybrids fixed noth issues. Tone is surprisingly good through all 3 pickups. Amplifier has decent sound and power but there's an odd hum at some, but not all, settings that may be coming from the amp, the guitar pickups or controls, the supplied cable (very cheap!), or the ...

I have another amp and cable but haven't had time to test them out. Overall, a nice starter guitar kit, especially for the price!

Great for the price. Packaging box was slightly damaged. Some scratches on the guard. But overall it sounds and plays great.

Gave 4 stars. Guitar is in great shape. Packaged very well. Guitar sounds really good. The amp on the other hand is very static. Tried different settings and still the sound isnt very good. Other than that. Very good purchase and im happy with it.

honestly, the guitar is not perfect, but for the price, this guitar is totally worth the buy. It's my first electric and I'm having fun learning on it. Be prepared to tune it quite a bit, but that is the only problem with it.

Nice finish overall for price. Fret ends need to be smoothed out. Problem with open G string being buzzy. Would like Glarry to address this. Have seen another post about open G string buzz.

Shipping took about 7-8 days, out of the box it looked amazing, but nowhere near able to play, just had a few small things to adjust. You'll definitely need different strings but as it comes it's a nice guitar that's plays well.

Everything with it is fine, the only problem is the g string has really bad fret buzz for some reason, it's only on open note too and I haven't been able to fix it

Overall I'm satisfied with my guitar it's great especially for this price point. The only grievance I have is that the headphone input on the amp does not work. I've tried different headphones just to make sure and nothing. I live in an apartment so I was excited to be able to practice at night without disturbing my neighbors but I guess not.

The guitar itself is awesome!! I was blown away at how nice. Its absolutely beautiful and the sound is amazing. The only reason I am not giving a 5 star is because the case for the guitar split when we put the guitar in it and I emailed the company days ago and haven't heard anything back.

on January 04, 2022

I can't change the four star to a five but I would if I could! Customer service was awesome in helping me with my problem! Awesome guitar and awesome people.

For a first-timer, very pleased with quality of the items vs price expended. Good starter kit for anyone interested. The amp that was provided with the purchase had a constant hum however that override the guitar when playing so had to go buy a replacement amp, seeing as how Glarry support just sent me (very vague) instructions on what may or may not be the problem, and no actual resolution. I considered the amplifier a free addition to the purchase so no harm no foul.

For the price, it's a good purchase. The quality is what you'd expect for $110. I got this for my kid and he loves it and that is why it gets 4 stars. I didn't want to get him a toy and didn't want to spend hundreds of dollars on a guitar if he ends up not liking it. Glarry definitely filled the need and I've looked around the website at their other products. I've aways wanted to learn the bass guitar and I will definitely look at Glarry when it's time to start that journey.

I purchased the guitar and amp as a gift for a friend who had expressed an interest in learning to play. She was very pleased with her gift and quite surprised with the quality and appearance of it.

on March 29, 2021

Well I definitely got the wrong color which was a big bummer, I reached out to customer service twice about it and got nothing back but it plays really well

on March 07, 2021

The guitar came with everything listed, no complaints there. The guitar itself is good but not great, not sure if its because the tuning knobs are all on the same side. The spacing due to the knobs makes certain chords harder to do than I remember. Overall, its very worth for this purchase; I understand you get what you pay for, otherwise its a great starter instrument.

After two weeks of anticipation it finally came to my door step and I was soo excited and expectations were met I was happy with my purchase.

on February 16, 2021

Came in very fast! Only con is the guitar has 3 scratches but over all nice probably have to be a little better with the packaging but over all can't wait to play it

on February 05, 2021

Although my string broke the first time I used lol it's a really good guitar.

Plays pretty good, came with a bunch of scratches but I don't mind too much. Good for beginners.

on October 06, 2020

Guitar works very well and came in great condition, however my package was missing most of the tools and a cord for the amp!

on May 30, 2020

Prompt shipping, arrived as expected. Tuned it up and started playing. I would recommend this to anyone.

Good quality for beginners. The amp has a lot of static. Way out of tune.

Both my new guitars sound great but my acoustic did have some neck damage other than that they are amazing for the price
