    Great job Dane! This is what people who shop at this end of the market want to see; people like them playing the guitars, even if they are just hacking out chords. Gives them a better idea what to expect.

    Wow, great video Dane! Having your customers try them and give their opinions is the best format of guitar shootout I've ever seen. I need a Glarry!

    This was great because you had many guitarists and you got many different opinions! When the Host does the review alone you have to sometime wonder if he or she is bias towards one company!

    Love the fact that so many different people were able to give their opinions. i'm sure both guitars could be upgraded with a set of strings or action adjustments. To each their own. Both might be good for people starting off.

    I have that Glarry in blue. It's gorgeous, sounds fine and plays great for a $100 guitar. Mine has quite the beefy neck. I can only imagine the Firefly beck being bigger? I think the Firefly is more money but not really sure. I'm happy with my Glarry.

  • @k.l.honeycuttsr.5316
    @k.l.honeycuttsr.5316 Před rokem

    I think it would've been validated more if you put a set up on both. The glarry sounds like the strings needed to be adjusted.

    I know a guy named Larry, he's kinda hairy and scary, and he plays a Glarry on his merry ferry, and he will conceal and carry his Glarry, until he drinks a glass o' dairy on the way to marry his gal Shari in January with his best man Barry who is getting wary and may tarry.

    I watched this and the shoot out with firefly and Donner.. and I have a Donner on order 😆 seems like a great guitar for the price point also what an amazing idea for you to have customers play them .. that I 10000% better than a sales video thanks for this ✌🌎🙏

  • @muznick
    @muznick Před rokem +1

    I have both of those, but in different colors. The Firefly has much better build quality. It could be mine was built on a Monday, because I also have a Glarry bass and it's very nice.

  • @bigdogpete43
    @bigdogpete43 Před rokem

    The Glarry I saw had frets sharp enough to cut your fingers and an action so high it was unplayable.

  • @feloniousmonk321

    Is that Glarry ever in tune in the entire video?

  • @rwbz28
    @rwbz28 Před rokem

    I did pick that one and after a ton of work it sounds good and plays well. Was totally unplayable out of the box. A TON of work! But it was a labore of love because it was a tribute guitar I put together for my late lead singer rhythm player. It is no longer a Glarry. Its a Todd Tellie!

    • @rickbrown2154

      And squire pickups it’s good and still cost affordable

  • @bomlolo7301

    Firefly is the best deal.
    Good seeing random people playing. Next time maybe put same set of strings on both guitars.

  • @PipeCat1965
    @PipeCat1965 Před rokem

    Decidedly unfair result. The Firefly lacked a good setup, according to the verbal comments. Some of those guys only chose the Glarry for its action.

  • @earnestmatlock9694
    @earnestmatlock9694 Před rokem

    Hello, this is the most unbiased well done guitar video, I think I have ever seen. Allowing customers to compare the two guitars solely on the individual products merits both likes and dislikes per individual customer. 👍
    I liked the Glarry overall sound better, and I understand about gloss finish necks, I sanded my acoustic guitar neck, and applied satin sealer. Results made the guitar easier to play with far less palm drag.
    I use lefty guitar because I'm missing 2 fingers of left hand. I'm not the best picker, but I enjoy the instrument.
    Do stock the tele style lefty glarr?
    Anyway thanks for your video, very well done. 73 Earnest K5EWM.

  • @Dude_Guyman
    @Dude_Guyman Před 2 lety

    I choose the Glary...based on the opinions of those folks. I care WAY more about the feel/action/setup of a cheap guitar than the sound. Looks mean almost nothing to me...within reason. I can "fix" the sound much easier than a crappy neck/neck fit/nut cut/buzzy bridge, etc. Odds are any guitar under $1000 is getting a new set of pickups and pots in my house anyway.
    Plus, the Glary costs ~$30-40 less delivered from Amazon, than it cost me just to ship a guitar (~$120) to a buddy of mine.

  • @eddie1188
    @eddie1188 Před rokem

    I have a glarry tele semi hollow body with f hole and maple fretboard .I love it after a few minor adjustments and string changes . The stock strings played well but had a nasty metallic smudging on the fretboard . I paid nearly as much for the case as the guitar . All good .👍🇺🇸

  • @meyou3013
    @meyou3013 Před 2 lety

    Is it weird that my attention was drawn more to the amber OLP guitar hanging in the background. If I had to pick any of these (and I already own the Firefly in a different color), The OLP is the one I would pick.
    Or maybe it's a Sterling. Can't tell for suire. Either way though, that's the one I would get if I didn't live a third of the country away from this store and could go in and get it.

  • @michaelbarber590
    @michaelbarber590 Před 2 lety +1

    I'm kinda shocked that they can sell guitars like that for $100 bucks. My 16 year old custom Carruthers Telecaster cost literally 50 times what that Glarry costs. Of course mine is made from the absolute highest quality materials, plays flawlessly and is far superior tonewise, but It's still pretty amazing what they're putting out these days for a measly $100 dollars. I mean, for the price of just my one Telecaster I could probably decorate the walls throughout my entire house with those things. Hell, I could even leave one hanging in the bathroom just in case I get an idea for a song while I'm trying to squeeze one out 😆.

    wait, what you sell these crappers in a retail store ? You're going to lose your accounts!
    I always go directly to the cheap shit first 😂 then the expensive good stuff and waste their time deliberately after they diss me for showing interest in the crappers.
