I recently got a Ktaxon which is apparently a de-branded Glarry GIB PJ bass. It was on sale at Amazon for $49; $73 delivered. About 3/4 turn on the truss, a little string height adjustment, and the action is lower than the Thunderbird I had in the 90s. It only needed a touch of intonation tweaking. The only issue I've had is a good bit of noise but only if both tone knobs are up full. And to any who worry about neck dive, it's there but minimal. I used to have a Gibson EB-O and that thing dove like Louganis.
I've got one of these basses but mine is highly modified and the only original piece left is the body. My Glarrys usually get modified in some manner, sometimes extensively. I have name brand guitars and basses but I play the Glarrys the most.
Not a bad idea to do that..I got the Glarry blue stained jazz bass and changed out the tuners and bridge . Sounds fantastic and looks cool. It beats scratching up your expensive Axes at dive bars that almost cost a Mortgage payment!
Glarry basses are awesome. I've done videos on them. I'm left handed and have a few of them. Glarry has decided to stop making left handed basses and has also dropped making left handed guitars. I've contacted Glarry and they have replied and don't plan to continue making left handed basses and guitar guitars.
@@klaymeister Maybe the value of my basses will go up.. As well as for the others who bought left handed basses and guitars.. )^_-)/ Keep rOcKin' your videos! Greetings from New Jersey.. )^_-)/

Ktaxon is a strange company. I ordered a pbass from them and they sent me a Glarry.

Harley Benton still make them. But if you're looking cheap LH in the US, try Rogue.
Ur insane!!!!!!!!!
I stay as far away from Glarry as I can.
To each his own.
Been thinking about one of those Glarry basses. In the past, the neck dive has turned me off, these look a bit thinner neck, any neck dive?
Yes a little. If I wear a strap that is a little grippy, I avoid the dive. So I would consider that manageable
Thanks for the input. God bless!
