excellent value. after seeing so many guitars on this channel that costs 30 X to 40X of this price, this is a really good guitar to start with for beginners. the pickups sound better than expected and probably all it needs is a change of pots (when the time comes for replacement) and some better tuners. even much more expensive guitars do not get a bone nut. i like that double cut shape as well. the only thing i think which will improve the guitar significantly is a change of logo. Even just putting in a symbol instead of the word will be better than the current one. Maybe they can ditch their standard glarry logo they use for other instruments and come out with a logo just for the guitar range or perhaps use a new logo for the "series" instead of the parent logo. perhaps they can start a logo contest for their guitar series with a guitar of choice for the first 3 winners.

Of course with better cables and at least a soft side hard case. When I bought my American Special Telecaster I told the sales man no deal unless I get a sturdy case and he can keep the cheap gigbag.

For a bit more (310 bucks, according to Yamaha's website), a Yamaha Pacifica PAC112v will require way less initial maintenance and will come with a bridge that you can actually adjust. If you add up the cost of the products that Austin had to use to bring the Glarry to a semi-decent state, you may be spending less money with the Pacifica. Just my two cents in case any viewer is considering a purchase.

I dig the idea of this guitar, but the decked hardware would definitely make me shy away from it. Someone could swap the bridge and tailpiece studs for lower profile units, but then you're at nearly the same price point as the Ibanez version. Set neck versus bolt-on... that's a very subjective argument, really. They each have their pros and cons, but at the end of the day, things like nut material, bridge/tailpiece mass, and tremolo sustain block seem to make much more of a difference in terms of sustain. I have guitars that have both, and, properly set up, either is great to me. The poplar body is super cool, I have to admit. If it wouldn't sit too high (that decked hardware...), I'd be curious about throwing a Bigsby on there. As long as they would stay in tune, the tuners would probably be acceptable, but I have a feeling that even a cheap set from Harley Benton/Thomann would be an upgrade. I have a set on my Gibson Sonex, they're actually really good. What I'm most impressed with is the pickups. Those actually sound really good for cheap pups! They're likely molybdenum magnets, given the output, but underwound, giving them more of an AlNiCo IV/V vibe. Someone put some thought into those, and it paid off. Good on them. If it wasn't for that bridge and tailpiece being decked, I'd buy one. As it is, it would be cool to see if swapping the bridge and tailpiece studs would make a difference, because if it does, it's a perfect platform for those mods, and you would have a decent quality instrument for not much money.
@clarkbabin97992 жыл бұрын
I've got no experience with any actual instruments built by Glarry but I have bought a case for a kit guitar I'm building. It seems pretty sturdy. Except for one of the latches not being completely stable and the fact that it only has 4 latches instead of 5 I'd compare it to many cases costing twice what I paid for it even without a brand on it. I'm actually keeping my Studio I just bought in it till I get the Gibson case thata on backorder. Speaking of you wouldn't happen to have an extra Studio truss rod cover that I could trade you a Les Paul cover for?
@edwinstovall33342 жыл бұрын
You know, Austin, I started watching this vid thinking that I might purchase one of these beasts. You convinced me otherwise. One thing I always try to consider when thinking about cheap guitars is, "How can I upgrade them?" Upgrading (for me, anyway) is harder with hard tails than with vibrato-equipped axes, so I think more about them. The thing that kills this Glarry for me is the fretboard radius. I'm a very bluesy player, and even my vibrato tends to be the type that bends strings. If that Glarry had the 12 inch radius that it looks like it has, I'd be down -- but instead, for some idiotic reason Glarry went with Fender's 9.5 inch radius. That by itself might be (MIGHT be) okay, but then Glarry went and did a radius mismatch between the fretboard's radius and the bridge radius. I'd lay down money that the bridge and tailpiece that they used conform to the usual specs for TOM-style bridges and stopbar tails. That would set those radii at 12 inches (like a Gibson) and that would constitute a radius mismatch. Since TOM-style bridges offer bupkus for individual string height adjustment, the mismatch is permanent. All of the replacement TOM-style bridges I know about maintain the 12 inch radius standard; they can't help. And yes, it's true that I own and love two guitars with 14 inch radius fretboards and 12 inch radius bridges, but here the fretboards are FLATTER, not ROUNDER, than the bridges. I say that Glarry went the wrong way here ... and my money says that, too! Too bad, too. I might have bitten this bait, but I can't fix a fretboard that's too round for my taste, and replacing the neck would be just as big a problem for the Glarry as for any other set neck axe ... if not worse.
@ChrisEck132 жыл бұрын
I understand what you're saying, but Fender has many 9.5" radius guitars that have TOMs, some very expensive. I could be wrong but I can't imagine they would put a 12" radius bridge on a 9.5" radius neck (meaning Fender, I wouldn't be surprised if Glarry did something like that)

You’ll be much happier with the Gibson DC and you’ll keep it forever, play it forever and keep it in the family forever.

I don't know, I'd rather have the Ibanez for $50 more. The QC will be much better and there wouldn't be any issues with bridge height, weird pickup routing or scratchy pots. The satin neck on the Ibanez is also a major plus.

What the hell did you paint the pickguard with, tar?

The shape is good. I like it. And respect to Glarry for sponsoring it on Troglys show knowing he will shit on it if anything is wrong. It's brave lol.

Maybe tape off the fb before putting the metal polish on it though?

I read "Glarry GIZ" as "Glizzy GLR". That said, I associate poplar with 90s Fender, and also older Jackson instruments.

I kinda dig the whole Ketchup & Mustard vibe the guitar gives off, but I'm weird. If I were to use that stuff you used to polish your frets, I noticed you just put it right on the fretboard without taping off between frets. Was that just because it's a cheap guitar, or is that stuff safe to use that way?

Looks and sounds pretty cool, really. For 180 bucks it's a no brainer.

No way that's gonna stay in tune very long. How is the resonance off amp? I wouldn't expect much out of this price. Looks like it might be a good beginner guitar.
