True! Funny enough, although Trogly has a personal inclination for rather expensive guitars, Glary keeps sponsoring some his videos on a regular basis. I think this shows 2 things, Trogly is not a complete guitar snob and Gibson is foolish for not sponsoring some of his videos, since they'd be dealing with a won-over aficionado!

TooBarFoo I agree, I purchased my first real guitar in 1974, $250 for a brand new Fender Mustang. It was a nice guitar only because I'd only had a $100 Hondo II SG copy to compare it to. I'm amazed what is available these days.

I got my first guitar in 1986. It was a Peavey T-15 with a hard plastic case that had an amp built into it. It cost $400 brand new, and was the least expensive electric guitar in the only guitar store in my hometown. Fender and Gibson owners at the time really talked trash about Peavey guitars (oddly enough some of them used Peavey amps), but they were really well made guitars especially considering the price. Unfortunately, I went through a heavy metal phase and traded the Peavey for a Japanese made Explorer copy because it looked cool and sounded decent. However, it played horribly, and I got tired of the body shape very quickly. I came to my senses and bought a Squier Strat a few years later, and I’ve supported Fender (and its other brands) ever since. The improvements in quality of even the lowest end guitars today is truly amazing.
@TooBarFoo3 жыл бұрын
I had a really bad acoustic as a young teen. My first electric was actually a early 60's tele. Bought around 76. Bought it in a pawn shop in London. I paid it off every week for about 3 months on layby. In those days old teles were kind of unwanted. Everyone wanted a Strat so 60's Teles and Jags could be found for knock down prices. Still cost me around a months and a half's wages. I played in a Punk band and old Telecasters and Jaguars where main stays as the most affordable options around. Good times!

I love to tinker with and upgrade guitars and basses. Based on several video reviews I decided to buy the original Glarry P-Bass for the purpose of improving it. I replaced the pickup with a GLS overwound hot pickup and installed their Kwik-Plug wiring system. This made a huge difference. I thinned out the neck and polished it, which was another big improvement. I replaced the bridge with a heavier one, but this did nothing to reduce neck dive. I replaced the nut with bone. I also polished the fret ends. The neck pocket was slightly wide, so I put in a shim. The result was a bass guitar that was much improved. I loved the light weight, by the way. When Glarry came out with their upgraded line, I bought an upgraded Jazz Bass so as to compare it with the original. What I found was pretty much what Trogly did. It did not need much work at all, save thinning and polishing the neck and dressing the fret ends. The neck dive of the original bass was a non-issue, and it sounded great. I have taken both basses to open mic nights and have enjoyed playing them. very much..

I have three Glarry ones. One Precision, one Jazz and a Stratocaster guitar. For the price... Solid construction, nice finish, real twins-clones of a REGULAR Fender (not a special edition). All you have to do is to change the pick-ups and strings. The Glarry sounds good but... I put Wilkinson pickups 25$ and Ernie Ball strings 25$. And because i've opened them, i shielded them with copper tape 15$ even if they don't make noise. The result is awsome and even a Fender won't sound and look better. So all in all it is a 200$ bass or guitar. Try them!

@edwinstovall33343 жыл бұрын
I bought and received one of these basses (in Burlywood) a few weeks ago. I am one of those tinkerer types who could indeed swap pickups, etc., but I wanted to skip some steps if possible. I lurked on the eBay page with that bass for days, which had an unexpected effect: Glarry offered me a deal! It wasn't a deal I COULDN'T refuse, but I didn't. I AIN'T SORRY! I have not owned a bass in about 40 years, so I had no expectations about playability. I didn't have bass chops anymore, so I wouldn't be able to judge. Feel-wise, though, I found the bass to be playable out of the box. I gave the neck a bit more relief than it came with, but that was just to remove some very annoying fret buzz. My impression of the bone nut was that it was pretty decent, which was very nice. I did not relish the thought of replacing this nut as I don't do string nuts well yet (if ever), but it's not a problem here. I did have one issue with the pickup. I didn't know that P-Bass pickups secure to the body rather than the pickguard, so it was a surprise to learn that I couldn't raise the pickup as close to the strings as I thought they needed to be. This was when being a budding guitar/bass tech came into play for me, as I removed the pickguard to look beneath and find the problem. The cushions on the bottom of my Wilkie pickup were not NEARLY as thick as the ones I saw on your bass. I didn't and don't know if you can get new cushions for pickups mounted in this way, but I MacGuyver'ed my own solution: I grabbed a couple of caps from some old vitamin bottles and placed them under the cushions. Perhaps this is not the most elegant of solutions, but I defy you to find it without going inside the bass! Going forward, I may try some other solutions -- partially because the coil under the 3rd and 4th strings is tilted. It still sounds good, but the look annoys me. It doesn't stop me from playing, though. It just occured to me that this pickup height issue might be what caused Glarry to offer me the deal, too! I can live with that, because the deal saved me about $30 and the solution saved a couple of bottle caps from the trash!😎 A question for you: What is the non-upgrade bass' bridge made from? I bought my bass thinking that I would upgrade the bridge, but got curious as to what I already had, so I gave it the magnet test. I found that the base plate is magnetic and therefore probably steel; to my surprise, the saddles are magnetic as well! This is VERY good news to me, since I didn't find any bridges that looked like a good bet to replace the stock bridge with. Some of the measurements seemed to be off, and most of the replacement bridges I saw seemed to lack the two upper (neck side) screws. With the base plate being steel, I feel that I can leave it alone and replace the stock saddles with brass ones. Honestly, I'm feeling little urge to do that for the moment. That means that the only things I'm really considering swapping out are the tuners. In truth, I'm not even sure that's necessary. I went ahead and pulled the trigger on a DigiTech BP355 Modelling Bass Processor for a range of amplifier and effects tones for cheap money. (You can only get these used, as they're discontinued.) This pair has proven to be a regular bass Dynamic Duo! The BP has a 4-band EQ with sweepable midrange and treble controls and shelving bass and presence controls. With these combined with the decently large number of amp and cabinet simulations, I've managed to make this axe sound almost like an Ernie Ball Music Man Stingray bass, which I consider the best bass in the world. Outstanding! The price tag for all this? Around $200‼️ ALSO outstanding! I personally would recommend this bass guitar to the same sorts that should be buying other Glarry instruments: Tinkerers and techs. You made a good point about the neck's back being better after some treatment (although my standards apparently are not so high that I mind my neck as is). The issue I had with the pickup makes me think that these axes are pretty much the same crap shoot as Glarry's other offerings ... your mileage WILL vary, so be prepared. All that said, the only reason I would hesitate to rock this bass on stage right now is that I'M not ready! Brother needs practice! I'm also going to put MUCH lighter strings on it, to make it play more like a guitar. After all, once I get more used to it, I can raise the string's gauge and reset the guitar appropriately. 'Nuff said!😎❤️️🎸‼️

One thing about that new bridge, could you convert from top loader to string through? You have the two screws at the top of the bridge to secure it, and Fender 6 screw trems are fine with just 2, so why not the Glarry?

Hey, ANY guitar without neck dive gets my attention. That's the Number One thing that drives me nuts. It's a pain, trying to play a guitar while having to hold it up. 'Nother good one, Trogly!

Oh no, He's playing a bass like a guitar. I like that Glarry for the price. I like maple. I like rawer necks, a little elbow grease and some abrasive action is no big deal. Great beginners guitar or just something you can get rough with.

Kinda disappointed this gets a review and the gold anniversary firebird just gets shipped off. I understand you gotta do the sponsored stuff to make a living so maybe there's no solution. Plus you already have a ton of guitars as a one man operation! So no hate, appreciate what you do.

I'm getting a Ktaxon soon. I guess I'll be doing a review video because I see none newer than 2 years ago and the models have changed a bit. I'm getting the cheapest one on Amazon $59.99 plus $19.99 shipping so just call it an $80 bass.

I'd have killed for one of these as my first bass back in the 80s. I think mine - once I sanded off the finish to refinish it in my senior year of HS - was plywood.

FYI: the Glary P-Bass body profile and shape are not quite the same as an actual Fender or Squier.

Great episode, Trogly! You should learn some skate or pop punk lines for the p-bass style reviews. NOFX, Rancid, a little Green Day or Blink would do wonderfully. P-bass and pick is classic punk sound. The Wilkinson pickups aren't awful and they had more output for sure.

Sounds a lot like a Squier bass to me. They cut corners on wages too probably.

I love good cheap guitars. It's hard to believe you can get something decent at these prices. Have you considered reviewing Harley Benton guitars?
