GLARRY 4 String Electric Bass Guitar, 36-inch Bass Guitar Beginner Kit with Cable, Strap and Bag for Kids, Boy and Girl (Dark Blue)

I've played bass guitar for years. My 10-year-old grandson shows an interest in taking after his grandfather. I didn't want to spend too much in case he loses interest, so I decided to purchase this short-scale electric bass guitar. It arrived today and I removed it from its packaging to give it a test drive. Setup, out of the box, appears pretty good. I tuned the bass and then ran it through my practice amp. I was VERY pleased! Intonation is good and the sound out of the bass impressed; so much so that my wife, in the other room, asked if it was actually the new bass. I got a little AC hum out of the amp when strings weren't being touched, but nothing I was concerned about, especially from an instrument at this price point. The only thing that remains to be seen is how eager my grandson is to learn the instrument. Highly recommended!

Nice quality. A bit heavy for a young kid.

Great little bass after a little setup. Purchased for grand daughter for christmas ( 5 years old ). Electronics are on the low end. as it sounds dirty on my bigger practice amp ( Ampeg Ba-115 ) but sounds ok on the Fender m-80 and the Peavey basic 40. She just loves the pink color, and fits her perfectly.

This Bass is similar scale to a strat but sounds super ballsy

Great little bass. It plays great right out of the box. I bought this for my wife. I play a standard 34" but I have to say, I really like how this thing plays (string tension way less) and the tones and sustain are great. I always do a bass set up - I was surprised how good this was. No bad frets, strings are decent, even the controls for the money were pretty good.

This was a gift for one of my wife's friends and she loved it. We may ask her to use it to do some music for our You Tube Channel "Arizona Primate Endeavor".

This is not a good starter bass. Everything is done the cheapest way possible: Nothing is set up or adjusted in any way so unless you do setups yourself you'll have to have a luther do it which may cost more then what you paid for this thing in the first place. The fret ends are just cut and not dressed in any way so they'll cut your fingers, The bridge is terrible. The nut is too high. The pickups are terrible, thin and tinny. The electronics are terrible and have to be redone. The tuner machines are loose so they come out of tune easily and are not installed at an angle like in the product picture so the the bass cannot be properly zipped into the bag it comes with. That said, what is this thing good for then? It's a decent base (the body, neck and frets) for a short-scale project bass if you have the skills and tools to do it. Basically it's the equivalent of an old school Indian or Harley Davidson Motorcycle rebuild project, so that to get a working bass that you're happy with, you're going to have to put in some work and money into it. Please don't buy this for your kid as their first bass.

Got this for my 10 year old daughter and it has been great.
