I am a recording artist and purchased the Bass/Amp Combo to add bass tracks to my productions. It arrived quickly, in pristine condition. I immediately changed the strings to Rotosound RS665LB Swing Bass 66 Stainless Steel 5 String Bass Guitar Strings (35 55 70 90 120) & tuned the instrument to Drop B (B-F#-B-E-G#) ... The adjustable bridge was extremely intuitive to use in conjunction with the truss rod, and yielded great results. This instrument plays wonderfully, sounds great, and stays in tunes extremely well. Electric Guitar has always been my main instrument, so dialing in a great bass tone is a skill I am still honing. At first, the amp left something to be desired... But after some research, I was able to dial in a solid tone that I used to record bass on 5 Heavy Metal tracks. I have since upgraded to a new amp (Fender Rumble 15, which I highly recommend) and the tone is spectacular. Punchy & Tight. I still use the GB-20 as an effective Studio Monitor. It is a great/handy speaker for playing music and other media through. The neck is on the thicker side, but very playable...The unfinished Maple Neck feels great! As a budget instrument, it is a great design. If a player decides to upgrade to a higher end Bass Guitar with a thinner neck at some point... They will have built a solid fret hand technique by learning/practicing on a more bulky design. I am EXTREMELY happy with my purchase. It is a fun instrument with a great feel. I chose the Burlywood Finish and it is a truly beautiful instrument. Huge appreciation for Glarry Instruments for making truly playable instruments at such an affordable price. If you're on the fence about purchasing this... Go for it! It is a high quality, budget instrument. In understanding the philosophy behind building affordable instruments, one can't help but to be thankful for such a great product. Buy it. Play it. Love it. Pierre Tonnerre, The Crawling Shadows

The bass arrived in perfect condition.It sounds good and everything works well.It needs a good set up but I expected that when buying a budget instrument.Thanks!!

Neck was very bowed upon arrival and the truss rod does not fix it. Looks are quite rough but at the price I don't care about that. The neck, however makes the action so high that it takes about 2x the force to press a fret and every feet after 12 buzzes. Still good value for money but definitely saving a little extra next time for a cheap Ibanez.
