Received my GT102 a couple days late, no fault of Glarry, and the guitar was actually playable out of the box after tuning.

Overall ,the roundback gt102 is nice looking and decent sounding...exceptional, considering the $109 price. I've owned several of the 1960s and 70s model Ovations and ...

Overall ,the roundback gt102 is nice looking and decent sounding...exceptional, considering the $109 price. I've owned several of the 1960s and 70s model Ovations and this copy is very close to some of the original...maybe not the quality wood and finish, but definitely worth the price for such a nice replica. Unlike some of the negative reviews I had read online, I think most will be satisfied with this guitar. I recommend it, especially if you can do very basic set-up on a guitar!

Update about my Glarry GT 102 roundback guitar electronic problem. After contacting Glarry, they responded very quickly and even offered to pay for repair if I took it to a shop for repair; however, I have chosen not to add this expense for them as I have the guitar playing extremely well acoustically. I am beyond pleased with Glarry for their excellent service after the sell. This is my 2nd Glarry guitar. The 1st is a Cool Burning Fire model that I love and it played very well out of the box.

I am beyond pleased with Glarry for their excellent service after the sell. This is my 2nd Glarry guitar. The 1st is a Cool Burning Fire model that I love and it played very well out of the box. After regular setup, it is perfectly intonation and extremely fun to play. Glarry is as good or better music supplier this old music teacher has ever dealt with....HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!
