[@jiverdude2775]

I've played lower end guitars at music stores through a Mesa Boogie Rectifier Amplifier, with FX. Sounds awesome, which was expected. Max is right; upgrading the pickups is a good idea. I'd also replace the switch and knobs/potiometers. For aesthetic purposes, and overall in general, I'd get a graphite or bone nut, better tuners and a better tremolo. Yes, it's some money, and time, but it's a $70 guitar. The body and neck are decent/solid. A great starting point. Stew Mac, eBay, one can find parts for cheap/inexpensive. And then one can have fun learning about guitar repair and upgrade.

And these pickups are freakin PHENOMENAL!! I am a pickup snob, always looking for the rarest and cleanest sounding hard hitting pups. These Dragonfire Phat Screamers have won me over. Now i have swapped out my Duncans and my Bare knuckles out of my two ESPs and they sound incredible. Moral of story: High prices and big name does not always equal superior product.

I used to be in a band, but I've felt uninspired since I moved to a cold part of the country, and my favorite bass got a crack in the body. I decided to spring for both a Burning Fire bass and a Burning Fire guitar, both in the sunset stain. I don't care that my previous instruments were much more expensive. Every review I've seen has highly praised these things. They both arrive next week. Very excited!

[@jamesfogg3258]

Yeah! Sounds great. These were on sale at Walmart .com for a couple of months but I got the RG copy you reviewed a month ago instead. They both are listed as Glarry burning fire guitars sometimes but the RG copy says nothing on the headstock. The heel joint looks better on the one you bought. I passed this up because the body was too pointy and the heal joint did not look and sculpted as the RG copy. It looks better than I was expecting. Every thing you have reviewed that I also purchased I am happy with. I am really happy with the MoskyAudio Tonebus Power supply and the DTC with effects loop. Great tone purist effects boxes for real guitarists that can actually play the blues like I can't. The Neewer analog delay for $20 on ebay is really good. I watched a few "Why You Suck At Guitar" videos that helped a lot. I had tons of bad habits I got rid of and I am actually starting to improve lately. The Glarry acoustic and the RG copy got me really exited again. I should start demoing songs again. I was playing the House of Blues acoustic lounge with backing trax a lot in 2014 but they closed and I have not gigged since. I might start performing again. I get grouchy when I don;t play enough guitar. Thank you Max for the reviews of stuff I can use and afford.

I just bought this exact Glarry "Burning Fire" Guitar in black, just like yours. I have not been a big fan of metal music, but I am a fan of your reviews and trust your judgement on guitars. I AM a big fan of tattoo art (I sport 5 Ed Hardy tattoos) and have long admired "tribal" style tattoo, which is what the design of this guitar reminds me of. This is my 4th guitar and I gotta say... you were spot-on in every regard. It's beautifully made, the finish is deep and the sound is fantastic. I just wanted to add that I find the shape is also brilliant when it comes to holding the guitar on my lap or carrying it with the strap, as it seems to balance really well against the body. I also find that it sounds just beautiful playing classic Motown rifts and Antonio Carlos Jobim bossa nova style jazz. I have to thank you for a guitar I almost passed by, because I haven't put this guitar down all day long. Thanks for all your great reviews!

Max mentioned at the beginning of the video that the body is close to the F series ESP LTD models. I bought a F-50 LTD used on eBay for less than a hundred bucks in black and can say if you like this body type but are unsure of Glarry guitars, just get a used F series LTD by ESP. Changed out the pick ups (which is what I normally do for stock pick ups) for Seymour Duncan black winter and the guitar sounds amazing. But Max makes a good point, if you’re into souping up your axes this might be worth it. But if you want the better alternative go on eBay or reverb and just get the f series LTD for close to the same price.

[@shakyblues2099]

Good video. I'm a big fan of cheaper guitars that play nicely, rather than expensive ones where you are just paying for the name on the headstock. I don't play metal music, but it seems to me to be less important to have an expensive guitar for this music. There is so much distortion and fx on the sound that you're not really hearing the guitar unlike blues or jazz where the sound is much cleaner and you're relying on the pickups and wood to produce the tone. It seems if you have a cheap guitar and expensive pedals, you can get good metal sounds.

So as a fan of DIY, and knowing that whether an electric guitar is going to be a good instrument or not, really just boils down to the pickups (kind of) and the setup, I bought a couple of these (followed your link) based on your seemingly sincere enjoyment with the guitar. I have gone down the Rogue Rocketeer 7/8 scale rabbit hole before (on a crazy sale and had an extra 20% off coupon which made them less than $40 each including shipping (I think the shipping boxes are worth more than the cost of the actual guitars)), and built myself an army of single pickup monsters utilizing just about every pickup type imaginable and finally settled on 6 or so configurations that work well for me, like an Invader loaded one with 11-60s tuned to C# on the 23.25" scale is a crazy shredding riff-maker... or another one with a Phat Cat and the lower portion of a 7 string set (wound G) tuned to standard... oh the spank. The necks on these are strangely "full sized," and sport a nice wide/flat, but substantial profile that belies the initial impression you get from the overall petite dimensions. Obviously, they all needed a good full dress, crown and polish and pickup swap (which you get some odd whatever was handy stock pickups that you can sell for $15-$20 on eBay), but the hardware is quite solid and better than you see on a comparatively priced Maestro. Maybe you should test one of these out, though your bicep will probably eclipse the whole guitar body... which could make for a funny video. www.musiciansfriend.com/guitars/rogue-rocketeer-rr50-7-8-scale-electric-guitar#productDetail

[@grindwerks6212]

So I ordered a couple of these, and having received them and fully disassembling them, there are some points to clarify. The bodies are Ochroma pyramidale and obviously extremely lightweight . Of the two I got, the black one is 31oz and the white one is 29oz. The necks seem to be in the maple family, but they splinter very easily, so I am not sure how well these will hold up in regard to tuning stability over time as they continue to dry. The electronics are even below in quality to what you see in a Maestro, or the $60 kit guitars and the 4 pickups I got are all over the map in output. The tuners are better than Maestro tuners (not saying much) and I was surprised that the nut is cut properly and fit well. The bridge is what you expect at this price, not good and not bad, and if you plan on locking it to the body and use it like a hardtail there is no reason to replace it. The frets and neck need attention, which is expected on ALL guitars ordered online these days regardless of price. So, I wouldn't buy these again, but I am going to refinish them both with a Mod Podge manga art collage and maybe even put in some decent pickups in them if I decide to have them as more than wall hangers.

I bought one and had to adjust the action, truss rod, and intonation. Recently I opened it up and put some copper foil tape in it since they didn't ground it too well.

My first guitar was a cort effector with a plastic fingerboard. It cost, I think, about $170 30 years ago. The improvement in manufacturing (CNC, etc) techniques has made guitaring a lot more accessible. I also had and LGA amplifier that was incapable of true distortion (but it would fart out and make a flappy sound if you turned it up all the way). I believe it was also about $100, or the current equivalent of $200. The combo guitar and amp that I had were $500 in today's dollars. And my guitar teacher had to have a conference with my teacher at the end of my first year to tell them that the cort was basically unplayable and limiting me as a student. Contrast that to now where you can get a cheap playable guitar for $100, and I just (after spending $40k or so on guitars and amps over the last 30 years) bought the monotone tube amp - open box, for $139 or something like that. I like it better than any expensive amp I've ever had for a practice amp. To compare it to the LGA15 amp that I started with is a bad joke, it's a real amp. never been a better time to get into playing guitar.

[@ThomasDickens]

[@kopprophet3819]

i've been wondering about these Glarry guitars - they are all over eBay. Thanks for the info.

[@thomasd9237]

👍👍 Max could play a brick with strings on it and it would sound great ☺️ 🤘

[@colesteel9068]

Play it played very decent and sounded very decent out of the box although my rigging was way way ahead of that class I tried to run everything dry and here just the guitar itself so I went directly into the head turn the game down some and then I crank the game gets picked to sustain the intonation wasn't bad so I bought another when I kept one and I smashed one on stage the Biltmore rugged than you think I weigh 233 lb I'm not a little boy and it took three head on Sideways the body broke before the next joint did surprisingly

I got this guitar about 2 years ago. I hadn't played in a few years, because I had lost my drive to play, so I didn't want to get an expensive guitar. As far as cheap guitars go, this guitar outshines many guitars that are/were sold at places like Walmart and Toys-R-Us for $100. I haven't changed any of the electronics out and everything still works as they should. My only "complaint" is that I find it a little awkward sitting down and playing it for some reason.

[@tjforgey7854]

Mine a few issues,loose tuners cheap strings.After a few adjustments, bone nut,new strings ,something frets ends,it plays like butter.Its my go to for shredding,and it's very light in weight.Feels cheap but plays and sounds pretty good.Pickups are pretty hot too.

[@hawklynn7914]

[@LunchBoxLazers]

I have an RG550 Genesis that I upgraded the pups on so I have the Ibanez V7, S1, and V8 I'm going to put in this (just ordered the red one). Gonna experiment with some other upgrades too and have a Marshall Code 100H and a 4x12 cab to run it through. I have high hopes for this little sub 100 🎸. Great video! Got yourself another subscriber.
