@@dankhill6851 distortion def tends to hide imperfections, but pickup def makes a difference. Height, amount of wax, design/purpose, how high the output is, if it’s active or passive, how it’s wired into the guitar, and smaller things that probably make a small difference depending on situation and what you’re trying to achieve. Yeah, distortion will cover up the sound, if you want GOOD tone (at least a way I often achieve it) turn down the gain to the point that the guitar still shimmers, and at that point, pickups for sure have their own distinct sound. Branding is the biggest price increase, but there’s a reason why a Seymour Duncan is better then a china bucker for 14 bucks (tho still good situationally). Mainly, I use gain to bring out the tone of the guitar and the pickups, not hide it to make everything sound the same, I recommend you mess around a bit Source: I work at a guitar store, have build my own guitars, and switched out pickups on stuff

@@dankhill6851 I’ll check out his research, but I’m saying it depends. Realistically, not all players are going to turn their distortion gain to 100%, so lower gain will still allow individual pickup characteristics to show. A firsthand example is a homemade Strat I have, we used a cheapie Amazon humbucker originally, but recently I changed it to match what was in my Guild Bluesbird, and it has so much more bite. You can probably dial in the tone knobs and vol to get within the same range, but if we’re talking about straight signal, pickups are different. If we really want to say that tone and vol knobs matter then why don’t we apply that to amp logic and say that amps don’t matter? (Check out Jim Lill’s videos, I’m kinda referencing his amp one, but he compares pickups briefly too in his tone wood video, I gotta watch more of his stuff tho). Idk, I’m not trying to be argumentative at all, but from experience I can just say I’ve noticed differences, maybe they can be smoothed out to be the same, but with a dry signal, they are definitely different. In the end it doesn’t really matter, I just need it to pickup the string vibrations, they all do the same thing regardless so the changes that I do feel like I notice are not that important compared to other things. Anyway I’m the yapper of the century, imma stfu now, sorry for rambling. Like I said, I’m not writing this because I’m angry or arguing, I’m just kinda a geek and get carried away typing lol. I’ll try to find Glenn’s stuff in a lil bit, I love tests like that. Tone debates are goofy lol, I’m a victim myself, but that’s a good excuse to keep learning ig (Edit: holy fuck that is a huge ass wall of text, feel free to disregard lmao)

beginners can't do a setup themselves, and paying to have it done would cost more than the guitar itself. If you wanna but something like this and set it up to gift it to a person, it's probably fine, but for the average person looking at a budget instrument there are much better options for just a little more money.

@@timd729 a beginner who has no experience playing a guitar, and no experience playing a properly setup up guitar will not know how to properly setup up their new instrument. I've met plenty of "experienced" guitarist that have played poorly setup instruments because they never knew it could be done better. On these cheap imports the number one thing that is almost guaranteed to be wrong is High nut action. even if they figure out how to intonate the instrument, every note fretted on the first for frets will be pulled sharp, and anytime they play cowboy chords they guitar will sound horribly out of tune. If a new player is fighting the instruments the whole time they are trying to learn they are more likely to stop playing. and all this is assuming the guitar has good fret work. Some of these no name guitars are good, but some are terrible. Even most experienced players don't know how to dress sharp fret ends or deal with spotty fret leveling. You can get a Squire, Ibanez Gio, Epiphone, ect.. for not much more money. With the name brands you'll get a warranty and generally speaking a guaranteed return/exchange policy. Depending on where you buy the instrument it may come with and instore inspection/setup. like what sweet water does. All of these are better options for beginners. For someone that knows what they are doing who wants a cheap project/beater/backup axe, then yes i agree some of these no name axes are a steal.

I don’t think anyone would be going in on one of these expecting it to be their one true guitar….but for a kid with zero experience, these are fine. I got a $50 no-name guitar as my first and I learned a lot about electronics and how a guitar works in general. Heck, 30 years later and I still go for the cheap ones because I like to tinker. I’ve had Martin acoustics and Gibson/Ibanez/Fender electrics and acoustics of varying prices and quality. Still prefer the cheap ones to take with me because I’d rather snap the neck of a Stagg than a Martin.

Glarry strikes again. Despite being a no name, this is definitely the Glarry Burning Fire. I only had one bass from Glarry and had similar complaints as you. Neck was too beefy and unfinished, horrible access to truss rod screw (like it was misaligned), impossible to lower the action, sharp fret ends and my biggest gripe was the weight. It was WAY too light. Had it for about a year and just used it at home but I absolutely do not miss it now that it is gone.

Well i bought an almost unused glarry guitar from a second hand shop here in the UK,cost me £30! Tele style '59 black single scratch plate and a sunburst finish. Not a mark on it,so the reason was to hone my skills at neck work,levelling,crowning and polishing,and general set up. The fun bit,plays like a dream,lovely action and clear clean notes and although a chunky neck feels good even against my strat which is quite slim compared to the glarry. My point being,someone could have soent hours learning how to work on a guitar without the fear if dumping a few hundred on something playable only to get it wrong and bugger it up. I enjoyed my time working on the cheapy,and the time spent was worth it cos i got a Dean guitar with a 10mm action and a truss rod wound so tight i had to put pressure on the neck to ease it loose so it didnt strip(thanks stewmac!)and that guitar after a lot of work is also playing fine although does require a fret level and dress but ive held off for a few minths due to the severity of the neck,so its getting played and settling nicely and in a month or so I'll remove the neck for final finishing. Most if the work would have been far more stressful without the glarry to practice on! Ive played some shit you wouldnt waste a gallon of fuel on for a campfire,but i still enjoyed making a noise with them!

The guitar may be "unbranded," but that QC says to me that the axe is a Glarry. I bought a guitar and a bass guitar from them a couple of years ago. I don't play that bass, but I don't blame it since I've never set it up. The guitar I accidentally destroyed, which was also my fault. That said, both those axes needed work and were useless to beginners. I've acquired some setup tools and some experience, and I needed both for these axes. That's okay for me, but anyone who DOESN'T have guitar tech skills should only get one of these to start learning on. The low cost will console you if you frag one like I did.

Pair it with inexpensive multieffect pedal like cuvave and you're good to go. play the music you like to play. it's not how expensive it is. it's your passion. started with $80 guitar. still kept it to date even though I got better one.

Alternatives to get the stuck string out: 1. Put it in a vice and use a small hammer and nail to knock it out. 2. Loop the string around through the same holes and give it a good tug from the other side. 3. Use a pair of needlenose pliers to crush the ball and pull it out. The second method is what I do when changing strings if the ball part didn't fall out, since I don't want to bother opening the cavity. I slip it through and it normally falls out or at least gets close enough for tweezers or a magnet to finish the job.

I ordered a guitar off of wish, it looked like it was a Jackson PC knock-off. I raised the action, after putting some "slinky's" strings on it and a tune. I liked how it handled. I did another string change with heavier slinky strings after swapping the bridge pickup with a Seymour Duncan. I play the grinder style of metal and it was a good guitar, still is. I paid what ? a discounted $69 ?. It was at my door in days. I ordered a BCRich knock-off and did the same. They're ok guitars, just needs a lil work. For metal, they're ok.

I bought the 5 string bass version of this from Amazon. It’s was $59 + $20 shipping so $79. It’s everything you said about this, but actually playable. I bought the bass as something to noodle on while I waited for my custom signature bass from Black Smoker (Japan). It holds tuning great and the intonation was damn close to dead on. Action was fine out of the box. The negatives were it was LIGHT and headstock heavy. 16th fret was high and buzzed at 17. Other than that, it’s the perfect trash bass for DGAF sessions or just because. I actually reviewed in my unboxing video for my signature bass.

@@TaylorDanley I really wish you could review this brand called Quincy. It might be interesting for you as there’s nothing that cheap in the 8-string realm, not even close. That’s my new 8-string, bought it for 1300 yuan, came with broken pickups, the switch goes from bridge pickup to silence 😅. I don’t know how to fix this and honestly, bridge pickup alone does the job for my 00-1 chugs haha. The problem is, I can’t find anything about this brand or this particular guitar on the internet 😅

Ok. So I've got a guitar from a company called Glarry, def Chinese. The body shape is the same, and its also feather-light. It was almost that cheap, I think I paid about a hundred. Its not as bad as that one, the neck is straight, the hardware is square, but everything feels cheap and flimsy. Am gonna replace it all, rout it more to accommodate a Floyd and the batteries for a set of active pickups, and it'll do for the stunt guitar. $100 for a straight body and neck isn't too bad imo.

the difference in price between something like an Ibanez gio, or say a squire sonic or affinity is 100% worth it. Those may be more expensive, but they are usually ready to go out of the box, and if they aren't you get a warranty/replacement plan. Unless you're someone wanting to pick up a project or practice guitar-tech work, Unbranded guitars are generally something that should be avoided.

Great vid! I was surprised that sounds came out of it and that it held tune for any length of time. Epic smash, too, haha. I don't understand why these ultra-cheap guitars always try to go with crazy pickup and bridge arrangements... You'd think somewhere one of these companies would slap a single pickup, volume, and wraparound tailpiece on something like this and make a totally usable instrument at this price out of it.

Ya know. You could make it into a solid tail, by refilling all the holes, dropping by the local Home of the Deposed for some cheap but straight fasteners, and grabbing some aggressive sandpaper too create a useable neck profile. Then if it stays in tune, give it to some kid with one of those budget guitar emulation devices you have. Or smash it... I noticed that the entirely unfinished body blank of the guitar was priced at $135.29, interesting...? ? ? ? ? ?

My very first bass is actually from wish, same deal unbranded thing made by probably whoever makes Glarry and such. And honestly I got REALLY lucky with it, decent fretwork, neck was chonk but that’s not really an issue personally, got me playing 👍. I’ve since upgraded the pickups and the tuners and that’s about it, I’ve had other basses but this one seems to be the one that I use the most. Like I said though I got a lucky one, I’ve seen some craaaaazy QC passed glarrys like the one in the video, wouldn’t take that chance and buy an instrument from them again, but overall I’m pretty stoked on mine

The reason is because a lot of companies essentially just hire the same factory to build their guitars when in the same price ranges, so you will see the same exact guitar sold under multiple names because it’s an easy way for a factory to get rid of stock and easy for the seller to get their stock faster. You can see this with Harley Benton and IYV and a few other companies. Harley Benton and IYV both sell a mustang copy with a jazzmaster bridge and they are the same exact guitar; the only difference is Benton has slightly better QC requirements than IYV does.

I got a Glarry Ibanez RG copy a year or two ago. I ordered a bright yellow one, but I received the same color as you did. I think it could be decent, but the neck feels nothing like an Ibanez and the tuners are crap. It does not stay in tune at all. I am considering sanding down the neck to Wizard specks and updating the tuning machines and the bridge, but I don't know if ti's worth it.

Damn that's a gorgeous guitar!! The wish guitar looks good too ngl.. if you think this is bad build quality, then you should see my first electric guitar, the "branding" is just a clear sticker with the words "Musician Pro" stuck on the head, there's a gap between the neck and the body big enough that I can keep my plectrum there. It's like a mini strat, but has a fixed hardtail bridge with individual saddles like you'd find on a cheap tele, and I have honestly no idea what materials it's made of. Was ZAR600 - around $40 - when I bought it in 2002. If I could post a picture here I would..
