A simple axe - the red with white pic guard and the light maple neck and fingerboard make this guitar pop. After making basic set up to make it playable to your preference consider upgrading the strings and replacing the nut for a bone nut. If you like its feel and playability and are feeling sassy have the pic ups changed for some hotter ones and consider shielding the pic ups - typically done or should be done on expensive Strats.

This is the latest of many Glarry guitars I have purchased...this one had the best packaging. Guitar was in a styrofoam cut-out...nice touch. It is a beauty, plays and sounds great. only thing that needs attention is the poorly finished fret ends...ouch! Easy enough to fix...just cover the body AND pickups, hit with a (fine) sanding block. Other than that it is a keeper.

I did have a problem with my order, but the Glarry team solved it immediately to my satisfaction. I will continue to buy your products.

I have ordered 2 of these. Using them to build "Frankenstrat" copies. Out of the box, they both played very well for a $80! The quality is very good, although the 2nd guitar had a couple of issues. But I only noticed those issues because I took the guitar apart. The issues had nothing to do with playability/performance. Out of the box, straight neck, nice action, and decent pickups. I changed to humbucker pickups at the bridge and did away with the other single coils, and the guitar play ...

Pretty solid not gonna lie the actions a little bit to high for my taste but that can be fixed in like 5 seconds so I'm not complaining about it

I feel like this one was rushed in production. Came with either a misaligned neck or the bridge is off center. The high e is almost off the neck at the base. The pickups are slanted as well, but I think this is fixable easy enough. Not sure about the neck. May have to reset the bridge or reshape the pocket. Not worth packing it all back up, driving to ups to ship it back. If it wasn't for the neck, it would have been playable and a great deal..

This is the 3rd guitar I have purchased from Glarry in the last few months. The first 2 were great. Beautiful guitars with decent hardware, quality materials and decent setup. This strat "style' guitar is a POS! Mis-Aligned tuners, Neck warped so bad I had to put a LOT of pressure(maximum) on the truss rod to get it close to straight, dis-figuring marks and grain on the neck, Dark spots on the Neck and Head sides front and back, AND..... the Maple Neck fretboard isn't sealed so all the string me ...

This is my 3rd glarrymusic guitar in 3 months. I got the 5 string GJazz bass and it was so nice I had to try the GTL , and it was so nice I had to get the GST. WOW! another beautiful guitar. Stunning finish and the maple on maple veneer neck is beautiful, I gave it a set up and 11-46 SLINKYS and its awesome. Buy several. I am.

Over all Great guitar!!! It looks and feels excellent! It's fairly light in weight. It just needed to be set up, like many other guitars do by other makers as well. New strings with minor adjustments. It plays very well now! I love it!!!


by J***t



on April 08, 2021

Bought this guitar as it seemed like a very good deal. Glad I did. The guitar is not very heavy but it is not too light in weight either. It has great sound and feels nice to use and just hold. The neck is big and solid and the fret board is good also. Frets were nice and needed no extra work done to them, no fret sprout at all. Tuners are OK, but this guitar is made for mods and you can easily get after products to increase the value of this very good guitar.I bought some hotshot locking tuner ...

Love this guitar. Good to go right out of the box. Going to change the strings, but that is just personal preference. Only thing is tremelo bar sits up to high.

on March 26, 2021

Excellent. Very happy we worked out the FED Ex shipping. Instrument arrived in perfect condition in spite of it's two trips to the West Coast (smile). I am making a new order today with Glarry to purchase an acoustic guitar, strings and amp.

This one is my baby. After a few minor mods this one goes on stage along with my PRS. Les Paul and Sheraton. It has become the "go to" Strat and yes I actually own a Fender Strat.

Would be 5 stars but for the extra thick neck profile.

on February 18, 2021

To be quite honest, I ordered two of the GST guitars. These are my 14th and 15th instruments from this company. By far, the best I received yet quality wise. The necks are greatly improved (smaller). The strings are better. I did not measure, but I believe the e string may be .009. However, of all the instruments I received before, none had damage. One of these two had a damaged pickup selector switch. That is easily repaired for me, but no one likes to receive a damaged new instrument. For the ...

on February 17, 2021

Let me start by saying I think it was a real value for the $75 I paid for it. That said it was not perfect it did need to set up, and add new strings to get a good sound and playable. But I was able to do it myself following online directions and now I'm actually very happy with it. There is a crack in just the finish. I suspect it's more cold-weather related though as the day I got it had 30 below windchill and 15 below temperature.Overall I am satisfied with it as others have said it could use ...

on February 13, 2021

5 stars based on price. I am not a luthier but have built several guitars. I have no idea how glarry can sell this guitar at this price. Mine came in very quick and undamaged. Finish was very nice but for my own taste wasn't excited about the lack of finish on the neck. Keep in mind these guitars are not set up. If you don't know how it will require a professional set up. I spent about two hours on mine. The pickups seem to be a little weak but have great tonal quality. I will be purchasing one ...

I purchased this guitar because of the favorable review it received on Youtube by Darrell Braun Guitars---I am very happy with the quality and workmanship at this price point!

Received mine in the mail today and one of the screws on the back is rusted... I'm sure it won't affect function but id like to see if there's any options for a replacement.

The Best $84.00 I've ever spent. 5 minutes to set up and it playa like a dream. The hardest part of this whole order was ME deciding which color i wanted. There's nothing to this being a "beginner guitar" it's a guitar anyone can enjoy. Anyone. works great plays great and if you want to upgrade pickups or tuning pegs or even strings that's a personal preference, but it came ready to play out of the box. Use the included wrenchesto set your action and get a phillips head screw driver to set your ...

on January 28, 2021

Pretty well the same as my other review except for a couple issues. The nut needs replaced because after intonation was perfect, the first fret was very sharp, and the next two frets were not quite as sharp. By the fourth fret it was pretty well normal the rest of the way up the neck. Also two of the bridge saddle stripped, with no strings pressure, tuned way down while setting the action. The single coil pups don't sound very good, not as good as the humbuckers on my other review. But for a few ...

The bad - Fret 21 was "dead". Strings slightly off center to the neck (slightly to the low E string). Does not hinder playing. The good - it was an easy fix (on a guitar I plan on modding anyway). This guitar plays nice. Adjusted the string height and intonation. The amazing - the finish on the body is amazing - not for the price point, amazing period. It's a beautiful guitar. This sound is way better than expected. It sounds really good (great for the price point). And, the price itself ...
