Ktaxon Electric Bass Guitar 6 String Bass with Naturally Air-dried Maple Neck, Rosewood Fingerboard and Basswood Body (Classic Black)

Amongst some of my instruments located at church due to my doing work at my house, you can see the white Glarry 6 string bass. Okay, yes, there is a slight buzz when not touching the strings but I have purchased copper tape and will see if this remedies the problem. Honestly.....I like everything about this bass except for the provided strings (they sound great, just a little rough on the fingers) and there were a few knicks and scratches in the finish on the back of the upper horn. I don't care about that since, to me everything else about this bass outshines these issues. Will I make changes? Besides what I have already mentioned, possibly change te pots (just a little scratchy) , but I am happy with the purchase and would encourage you if you are looking for a 6 string to purchase as well.

It's great for the money. I haven't opened the electronics- I know it'll be the cheapest stuff in there but I don't have a reason to. The pots aren't noisy and overall it sounds great. The first thing you noticed is that the neck is dry as a bone. The strings are dookie but who cares you are getting a good deal. I went and got strings right away. Just know that the 130 as B will not fit the bridge. Go smaller or make the hole bigger and clean the hole so you don't cut your strings. Intonation will need adjusted but I found it easy to get the top of the neck to match to lower frets. It's a nice player. I'd gig with it if the pots hold up. Proof that low cost isn't always an indication of playability

After reading several reviews about this six string bass, I was convinced enough to buy it. My background, I am new in the bass world and I was brave enough to jump onto a 6 string.My take on the instrument:It is well designed and sounds great out of the box. It is a beautiful instrument in my opinion at a fraction of big name brands. However, you might need to tweak it to suit your needs as I did.Tweaks:I replaced the sound jack since the one that comes with it honestly doesn't grip well and that affects the sound output.The preamp that comes with it works but I wanted to experiment with a single NFP filter preamp. With the NFP I kept the 3 way switch that came with it. I replaced the stock vol and tone pots with B500k and added a 0.2uF capacitor to the tone port.With the NFP preamp I was able to make the bass both passive and active. So my apologies to a reply I did in regards to the pickups that come with the bass. They are actually passive pickups. They are a little loud than name brands but with the NFP I was able to attenuate the pickup output to my liking.I also replaced the strings with Markbass Ultimate series with soft touch. They were $20 off so not bad and they are so soft on my fingers. They are round wound so versatile for different genres.I also insulated all the cavities with copper tape including the cover. I also sandwiched rubber between the bridge and the body to make it nice and quiet maintaining sound fidelity.My total including the bass was about $380. It sounds much better and cleaner it's hard to put it down once I have started playing it.I hope this is helpful and glad to demystify some conceptions about the bass. I love tinkering so who knows what else I will do to it.

I am honestly dumfounded. I've had multiple basses over the years from many different companies and have had vastly ranging experiences with them but I must say I have been pleasantly surprised by this instrument. It has a better setup than most basses I've had out of the box. Been playing for 16 years and this might be the best value I've come across.The luthier job to get a bass to this level of fret board polish and work would probably cost as much as this instrument did.I purchased this originally as a project instrument to pull the frets out and upgrade from the ground up but to tell the truth, I'm probably going to purchase a second one just to have because I'm that pleased with it.If I could rate higher than 5 stars I would. 12 out of 10 value for money in comparison to other options. The fretwork is phenomenal, running your fingers along the board you barely notice they're there. The neck is thin enough to be fast but thick enough to be sturdy. It's not like some other neck profiles that end up being more of a U. The nut is a little oversized for the instrument, which is an easy fix but I'm honestly not sure what it's made of. I've had cheap plastic nuts on basses before but this almost looks and feels like a graphtech style of material. The balance of the bass is body heavy, so it doesn't neck dive although the hard tail bridge is very light and I'm probably going to upgrade it. The pots feel smooth, need a little bit of tightening, no big deal there. The pickups are rock solid.Tldr; worth more than twice as much as it costs. Fantastic feel, surprising value. Recommended purchase.Also for some reason, I was sent a Glarry. Not complaining at all, it was one of my choices for conversion but it was twice the price of this one. I'm not giving it back 😁I noticed a question about the upgraded version and what makes it different from the cheaper one. The difference is the electronics, the upgraded has active electronics which means It has more signal going to an amplifier and also has extra knobs to add lows, mids and highs to the signal. The downside is it requires a 9volt battery that will die and need to be replaced periodically. The battery is required for most active instruments to work. Hopefully that answers that question!

Love the transaction. Quality sounding bass for a fraction of the cost of a over rated named brand bass. Will definitely buy another one soon. Maybe today
