Glen Burton 6 String GE39-JG-WR Offset Body Electric Guitar, Wine Red

I only wanted the body, I had a vintage fender neck & it fit perfect. The neck that comes on it was a big old baseball bat. I hat 50's neck's but had a friend who gave me 50.00 for it so all & all I pleased as punch.

I wanted this guitar for a project, I knew it wasn't going to be great going in but I rolled the dice because I liked the look of it. Jazzmaster body, P90's, Strat Trem, No pickguard, kinda checks the box of a lot of things I like. However, what I like started and ends there.-The neck is fat. Super chocolate eruption chunky. Very Thicc. High action, has to be dealt with at the nut. Frets will need work. Fake rosewood quality is on the lower end. Back of the neck is satin.-The hardware are all trash. If you've ever ordered parts from musiclily, then take that quality and drop it in a dumpster. Everything is the absolute lowest quality possible, tuners, pots, switch, jack, wires, all of it. pickups maybe salvageable for some hot rod project you got.-The body was built by a blind drunk monk at 2am. All of the bridge holes were drilled incorrectly and crooked. They used a hammer to cut out the trem routing on the back. The finish was actually really nice and shiny. They use the typical 300 layers of poly coats over a veneer on top of some sort of light weight wood. It's extremely lightweight wood, but it's not basswood.-The sound. Decent actually, i mean, P90's, what can I say.In summary, this guitar should be priced sub $100. I'd say it fits right in with the quality of Viper/FirstAct, you know, those really oddball wonky cheap $50 guitar companies. You're basically paying triple because they got a cool design going for them here.At the end of the day I paid $125~ for a guitar body. (I got mine used here on amazon a while back) I was hoping more of the parts were usable, but I did sell the neck and made a bit of money back.I only made this review so others who see this listed at $150+ on other sites will think twice. Just get a used guitar local to you if you're a beginner. This one will take way too much effort to get you going and you will end up giving up on guitar.

For $150 its an alright guitar. For a beginner it might be good cheap price. But with all things, you get what you pay for. Action is a little high. The neck is rough and not really comfortable for sliding your hand across it. The finger board is also a little rough causing bends to be not so pleasant feeling. I ordered this guitar a week ago and it came in 4 days later than the projected ship date. After finally getting the guitar, the box came in a big mangled mess. Fortunately the guitar would still be in good condition unaffected by the ruined box. All being said, I bought this guitar not because i’m a beginner, or buying for a beginner, but this is the only place where I have found a jazzmaster style body that is rear routed.

We all love it. It’s beautiful and well worth the money!

Knobs loose. Neck pickup not working. Action to high to be adjusted properly. Disappointed.
