Dude, this guitar actually sounds incredible. I'd never guess this is $70 and not $400. Looks like a great buy for those into Metal. Even looks good.
It's being played on a $100+ amp/pedal setups. You won't get that sound with just the guitar alone...
Does it? Sounds like one of those squier starter kits.
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.
@@alexcorona I would assume way more than $100+
id say do everything you said but get a nice metal looking neck for it too because just looking at that neck i can tell its gonna need a refret in about a year or too and it might be cheap feeling on the hands but keep the body cuz it looks sick

I have been testing cheap frozen pizza ,so far Red Barron is in the lead I think it's better than Tombstone cheaper as well.
I like Tony’s
@Reclusiarch Grimaldus I have come to that conclusion as well.
Mama Bossos is the bomb if you can find it and it's super cheap.
😂😂
Doggie, there is a reason why tombstone costs more. Red baron sauce taste like "brown" lol. At least tombstone tastes red
Bro you made them sell out of the guitar. They should have given you an affiliate code so you can get rich quick.
They're back in stock and I plan on getting one hopefully sooner rather Than later
I have one, they're good beginner guitars. I'm changing out the pickups, the neck, tuners, nut, and the input jack
he does use Amazon and eBay affiliate...
I want this because im a beginner
based on how much they cost, get rich slow
Looks pretty decent for a 70 dollar guitar great for beginners that are into metal
I actually JUST bought this SAME guitar off of ebay, for 61$ and free shipping....THANK YOU FOR THE VIDEO!!! best guitar reviews on ALL of youtube. thanks again good sir!!!!! rock on!
How does it play and what's the wood made of?
Free shipping outside us too? I check their web and the price is $79 now other guitar $89

@@EnvyOw-10 points not reading the description and not watching far enough to answer your own questions
@@EnvyOw - It plays really well... and not just metal-style rock. The bridge pickup is my favorite for the jazz I like to play. The wood is Basswood, the neck is Canadian Maple and the fingerboard is Rosewood.
This was my first electric guitar and i love it!
Hi...Is it heavy? how much does it weigh?
@@Dr.A05 not a lot dude u can easily hold it in one hand
@@Dr.A05 really recommend buying it if u havent already i ran into some issues. The cap on the pick ups switch comes off easily and one time the entire input jack just broke, like all the screws and electronics just broke and fell off. This never happened before or after this event
@@butterbot333 May be cause of the price range. I was thinking if the fretboard is smooth to play shred then i could upgrade the pickup and other electronics. What do you think buddy?
Great to see someone reviewing stuff like this. Your no doubts having more of an impact on folks starting off all than those that are reviewing 5K guitars and just repeating the same things over and over. Keep up the good work.
The fact you made me head bang to an affordable guitar, means you are an incredible musician!. As someone who always wanted to learn guitar, I think this is where I’ll start. Thanks for the review!.
I just bought one and I love it. I can't believe how lightweight it is and how good it sounds. Thanks for posting the review.
I wanted to learn to play guitar and got one of these for myself. I'm happy it can sound this good.. Now I wanna make it sound that good eventually. I love hearing you play!
I love the under $100 reviews. I bought a Glarry Strat for $60 on ebay. It's my first electric after playing acoustic for nearly 2 years. Hopefully you'll have a few amp videos soon. I view a lot of videos of guitar lessons and reviews etc and many aspects of your videos are excellent. Rock on buddy!
I really like your reviews especially the ones for cheap/budget guitars. Keep it up!
Awesome, good job for using the budget amp as well! More realistic to the first time buyer.
Man, I love your vids. You're definitely doing a good service to all the beginners out their who are embarrassed about their cheap guitars. We were all their once. It's kind of hard for a 16 yr old to drop $1500 on a good guitar while working a minimum wage summer job. My first bass was a cheap-o P-bass knockoff I got used for $50.
Thanks Dude! I love to hear that! If I can help people discover the joys of rocking tfo on guitar, I think I have done a good thing!
Guitar MAX you're definitely doing that! And giving a good lesson in humility to us older guys when we get to thinking we know everything.
Cool. 😆just saw this guitar on amazon and was like wtf is it gonna sound like and sure enough you had a video on it. Loved the outro of thepretty kitty!
But dude your one of those guys that could play a cerealbox with a yardstick stapled to it and a rubber band stretched over it and make sound good
CRUNCHberries lol
literally Rob Scallon on any given weekday
Because the guy has a 4,000 amp
dangerous outlite in the description it says what amp he’s using. It’s 100 bucks as well
true that lol
That delay effect was so high, I watched the video, went to bed, woke up and it was still on.
I love your reviews and the fact that you don't do high dollar mods. I have seen a vid or two where you upgrade pickups but only $25 ones. I bought a Chinese Strat from Aliexpress and bought A loaded pickguard with Dragonfire pickups. The whole purchase with pickguard and humbucker and single wired and ready was 60 bucks. 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 saw almost every video on this model and brand but it was this review that sealed the deal for me to order, I'm an acoustic player that loves metal so I'm gonna Lea how to shred in this one, thanks brother!🤘
I was going to get one on eBay. Your right about seventy bucks all in and they come in about six different colors. Cool video. Nice Stratocaster in the background
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.
It really does sound decent. I'm like you, I think it is crazy you can get something decent for the price, and it is good looking too!
Nice sound,killer looking guitar,Thanks for sharing and linking us up..
I bought this guitar based on your review. I was not disappoint definitely will be upgrading the pickups in the near future
Wow dude! This is the first video I watched on your channel. I've gotta say man, I love what you're uploading. I hope you keep uploading videos like these because I want to find my dream guitar and a bass that I could start with one day.
Thanks for the review! I've been keeping my eye on this guitar for a while now
Always enjoy watching you play .... Your Reviews/Demos are great
Thanks!
Been put of HS 10 years, and that was when I played guitar. Jave been thinking about getting back into it lately for a hobby, and wanted a cheap left and right bc I learned to play right handed even though I'm dominant left handed. So now I want to learn left hand as well, looked these up and this vid. Came up. Subscribed.
I like this review. Really, if you want a guitar to play, thrash around with, learn to upgrade, can't go wrong with this one. I'd like to get one just to mod it to my taste. TY for reviewing it.
That’s pretty cool . What a bargain . Again you find and demo some pretty amazing cheap gear !
I ordered a few of the glarry guitars and a violin. Cant wait to try them out. I dont normally buy cheap gear but I've been hearing so much about this company I had no choice but to give them a try.
I found this guitar on market place for 25.00 dollars it was mint ..I love it I mess around with it and it sounds good for playing..I love the look and the sound. Thanks for your review 👍
You're pretty much having the same reaction that I did towards Glarry guitars. I have 3 of their guitars. A Strat that has a lightning bolt decal you might say on the body, one of their Teles', and a 5 string bass. I actually liked the Strat and the bass. The Tele I haven't touched it since I tried it out. I should have just sent it back. 😂 the video that I made demoing the Strat, my reaction is so authentic. I was literally shocked that a guitar that cheap in price played and sounded as good as it did. Great playing as always, bro. Rock on! 🎸🤟
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!
Great job. Because of your work I've been inspired to purchase this type of guitar and had just bought this same guitar last week and everything you said is right on.The guitar was playable out of the box and as you've said in another video they put the money in the neck where it should. I also order a white version of the tobacco burst cheap guitar in a previous video but it needs much more work to play well but the potential is there. Thanks for what you do here. Gotta love it man!
Awesome man! Rock on!
Dude, I don't know what's more shredded. Your playing, or your muscles!
thanks for your reviews, just honest info, no bs, much appreciated!!
This looks like a great platform to practice upgrading components! I will be buying two in the near future.
Just bought one today will be here soon I can’t wait such a cool looking guitar
You made that thing sound lovely, I am going for the burning fire bass .
Thanks for sharing this and as mentioned, it really should cut you a royalty man!
Great demo video, honest and no bs. That guitar looks great, sounds great, and for that price, any budding metal guitarist could buy it, more so for a first guitar (first guitar is always special, kids!)
Liked and subbed!
Ha! I literally just bought this one and I LOVE it! You absolutely cannot beat this for the price. 🤘🏻🤘🏻
These videos are so cool, I mean everyone reviews expensive guitars that we normal people who plays more as a hobby can't afford.
Awesome video man, keep shredding 🤘
Thanks for the very informative review about this guitar. Gotta go buy one!
Great guitarist,honest reviews,and I always enjoy them,and learn something. Thank you. BTW: for $70,I'll buy a Burning Fire.
Thank you so much!!! In so buying this baby ! One more guitar for my collection !
hey,have you bought this?
this is awesome all around... the demo, the guitar, showing the sound with reasonably-priced ID Core 10...
Thanks Andy!
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!
the intro is awesome! Great Job
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.
Awesome review gonna buy this when I can!!
a chick in my guitar class had this and i was a bit of a snob with my gibson lp and i loved it
Thanks this help me decide which electric to get for my first. Didn"t go with this model but got one with a humbucker.
I wish I had something like this as a kid when I just started playing guitar. Good ol' Fender Squire.
I'm getting this guitar, pretty fucking sick. Mine was about 143 dollars including shipping. Came with a case, mini amp, pick, and other accessories, can't wait to get it.
Great video and great information. As usual.
Pretty cool looking guitar. Getting back into serious at age 56.. Might get laughed at playing something this wild looking. Great video. Love how you don't talk down to people. Great chops to btw! Sub'd
i've been wondering about these Glarry guitars - they are all over eBay. Thanks for the info.
Great review here Max! I just got one and its about 3” shorter than most guitars but has 24 frets. Plays pretty well right out of the box once I tuned it. That switch is a 5 way switch. (not 3). It did not want to stay in tune very well so if I wanted to play it much I’d swap for better tuners. I’m going to use paint pens and have some fun on mine, turn it into an art piece.
I just got one off Amazon for 95 bucks in black and I love it only out the box it had a crooked volume knob I had to fix and it has a tight input jack hard to get cable out but it does come out.I love the neck on it so comfortable to play.I plan on putting black speed knobs on it.
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.

Great channel I enjoy the reviews.
that guitar sounded sick. Might get me one, I love cheap! get this and change out the pickups like you said and you got yourself a good guitar!
I really enjoy your playing and your insights. Thank you.
I am dying to play like this my entire life, So I am 45 & im jumping in finally, I bought the yellow one, very excited, that sound of the metal is my thing.
Rock on ma'am🤘🏻🤘🏻
Would you say it's even better than the F series you mentioned. Because I had one. It was an ESP Ltd f 150 and I paid 179 new. And I would definitely buy that one. That's a pretty damn cool guitar. Love what your doing man peace bro.
Great review my metal brother🤘
I just got the 2 pickup Glarry just like that. Honestly, I love how it's done, just gonna change out the pickups and volume knobs. Might order the one like what your using and a bass by Glarry. 6 string bass I got is amazing by glarry
Thank you so much for actually playing metal on the guitar i kept watching reviews and people kept playin it like it was an acoustic guitar. I dont know much i just bought this guitar from glarys website and i was just trying to see what it sounded like
Devlz Rejectz666 did you ever make it sound metal mine still sounds acoustic i think i might get a distortion pedal
@@user-bq1bv3vc4y mine sounds acoustic as well i think im going to as well
Thanks for doing this review. I have been looking at these for a while. Want to get some to airbrush. I thought they would be nice wall art, had no idea they may actually play well.
your playing in the beginning kicked ass dude
Great work on intonation and strings high, it helps A LOT. It would be great hear the Whammy bar for US$ 70.
Thank you for this video, Peter Steele
Thanks for the advice about the guitar because I'm planning on getting a guitar and I'm just starting to learn how to play and I like the heavier Style music
just ordered a sunburst one cant wait ty ty ty ty for review
Max, your a cool dude and doing a great service for beginners as well as those without alot of extra spending money. I never had the money to afford what I really wanted but was blessed with craftmanship skills and finally one day decided to build my own. They are just for me. I dont sell them because there is to much time involved in building them from scratch not to mention no money in it when you consider the time and investment in quality materials. Keep up the great work and metal rules!
Great playing. This guitar is the love child of BC Rich and Jackson.
Very good review / demo videos on this chanel!
Thanks Peter!
Great demo! Rick on max!!!!!😀😁😂🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
awesome video Max! how about a headless guitar?
I’m thinking about buying one of these as a project guitar to have something to do in my spare time.
Great review
Thanks for the video just bought one based on your review should be here in a week
as always great video
Bought mine today in that white colour they have. It just reminded me of extreme snowboarding lol so I'm going to refer to it as Shaun White because it shreds
Do a review on that beautiful red strat behind. But honestly what I want to see is a review on a cheap guitar equipped with a knock off floyd rose style bridge. Keep doing a good review! 👍
New subscriber!!! You earned it man, content is very informative and you prove it at the same time. Keep rocking brother🤘🏻
Your fellow Bearded Saiyan
Thanks!
The price fluctuates and the other day they were $47.99. And that same day ebay had a 20% off coupon. Insane
Hey I just bought the guitar the other day. It should ship in soon. I'm excited. It will be my first guitar as well.
How was it?
Thanks for the recommendation! I just ordered it after watching your video, if anyone else is considering it just know it's on sale right now! 10 bucks cheaper so I can get an amp quicker.
Have one coming today, I'm going to mod it into an amazing guitar!!
Super cool. Through some Dragon fire screamers in there and rock out. I just may try that. Because of your reviews I just ordered 3 preloaded pickgaurds and a set of their hexbuckers. I have started doing my own guitar work. Really digging it too. How does bc rich hold up to your reviews ? Love to see it.
Getting mine next week!
Those are some sick riffs. Band worthy.
WOW sounds great thanks again MAX
It all depends who plays the guitar, he can make a broomstick with strings on it sound amazing!
See: Zakk Wylde and John5 with Hello Kitty guitar
Got one on the way but it has a 5 way switch and it's sunburst, which I have learned that they tend to use better pieces of wood on a guitar that has a clear finish. I bought it to learn setup and build without messing up my Epiphone 60's Standard Les Paul.
Bought One of these a month ago for $55.00. I play it more than any other guitar I own. For the price, look and sound of this cheap guitar, You just can't go wrong. Great Video Brother! Keep'em comin'!!!!! How about a Raptor LP Style Guitar Next, They run just below $100 and have a Les Paul look, with the size of a Les Paul Junior.
hello brother, how is this guitar actually?how well the tuning really can be hold by this guitar while using tremolo?
How much is its body weight?
Man! U make everything look good.
Cool video as always
