About this item

FABULOUS SOUND: Our electric bass can deliver brighter sound and a more powerful mid-range growl owing to J type 2 single-coil pickups. The mahogany body makes this electric bass tone become richer, which is perfectly suitable for rock metal
OUTSTANDING TONE DISPLAY: Adapted with passive pickups, this 4-string rock bass has pure sound and a good distortion effect, which can play variable musical styles. The surface coating design of strings makes string tension larger therefore you can play a more stable and smooth sound
HUMANIZE DESIGN: 1.4" nut width and 9.5" fretboard radius are the right sizes for kids and adults alike. The turning knobs are made of premium chrome so that can maintain a mirror-like shine for a long time
FANSATIC HAND-FEELING: Made of premium rosewood, this fretboard of the 4-string bass guitar features smooth touch and hard texture in order to better hand-feeling and durability. Compared to ordinary bass, our bass neck adopts a C-shaped design for a more comfortable experience
SUITABLE FOR ALL SKILL LEVELS: Coming with a complete set, this bass guitar is no assembly required which is a great choice for beginners and experienced musicians of all levels. A portable bag with a convertible nylon strap supports you to carry it in different ways

First ever review.
Absolutely fantastic! For the price, hell forget the price! I have been having so much fun playing this. Micro bass, 2 octave guitar length scale, sounds great, did I mention fun? Considering price paid, set up is decent, still adjusting details, but better than passable out of the box.
Looks - Red looks awesome, matte finish, sweet.
Build - Solid, no issues, and it has some hefty to it, in a good way, for the size.
Sound - Played thru a 300 watt bi amped Carvin 2-10, 1-15 stack, boom!
Overall - Just love playing this thing, makes me smile every time. Nice to sit in front of the TV and noodle/practice.
Definitely worth the price paid, $59.99, $19.99 shipping, 10% coupon? Done and done.
Accessories - Cheap, cheap bag, cheap strap, shockingly good cord? Short, 10'? braided jacket, what?

I got the yellow color of this bass guitar
and it looks nice and sounds good, tone is great clear without noise. Personally I bought this guitar, coz I need lighter one for travel and to record my own composition as a hobby while on board the ship, coz I'm a seaman right now.
Then I made a record out of this bass to complete the track of my song and the mixing result was excellent, the quality sound is like no difference to a standard size bass guitar. And I'm very happy with the result, now I'm enjoying listening my recorded song composition after finished recording coverted to Mp3 file. This cheaper price is a money saver with quality tone, lighter weight easy to carry, short scale but 24 fret full scale which I most like, and a very comfotable, much easier than stanbard bass guitar to dribble your finger along the fret board, coz its like the size length of an electric guitar, I would recommend this to buy!

I will start this review by saying I am not a bass player. I am a guitarist of 33 years, and a drummer for even longer. I have a small studio and have owned several bass guitars through the years. I play good enough to confidently play my own bass tracks in the studio. With that said, I am in the process of recovering an album and needed some bass. I had chosen a nice 5 string that was significantly more expensive than this one. However, I ran across this guy about a year ago and for some reason I just couldn't get it out of my mind. Last second, I decided to trust my gut and purchased this Ktaxon short scale bass and man, I'm so glad I did! This thing is so awesome! It is tiny! I play Fender strat style guitars so the 25.5 inch scale length sounded great to me, but when I opened the box there were no words! It is so small! Upon initial inspection, it looks good. It does have some flaws, but it was only $59. Flaws are to be expected. There are no sharp frets. The back of the neck is kinda rough, but a lite sanding took care of that. The jack plate doesn't quite fit the curve of the body. I removed it and bent slightly to fit the body better. The red finish is flawless. It is a matte finish with no pore fill so you can feel the grain. It says the body is mahogany, but the grain looks just like ash to me. Who knows? It was not in tune so I tuned it up. The tuners feel a little loose. I may replace them. The action is somewhat high. The intonation isn't even close, and the neck has a little too much relief. I then let it acclimate overnight. The neck straightened out close to perfect. A little tweak on the truss rod and it is good. I adjusted the saddles and set the intonation. All of this took roughly 15 minutes. I have to say, it is one of the best playing bass guitars I've had the pleasure of playing. The strings are super heavy so the bass tunes to standard tuning. No string flop whatsoever! The pickups sound like bass single coils. 2 volume and 1 tone. It has a lot of versatility. I threw a strap on it and it is perfectly balanced. No neck dive. I don't own a bass amp. I record direct with amp simulators. I plugged it into my guitar amp just for the fun of it. A Vox AC20 clone. Kicked the fuzz and the phaser pedals on and just cracked up laughing at how awesome this little bass is! My studio is a tiny space so the scale of this bass is perfect. I figured I could save money on a case as well. Instead of a bass case, I could throw it in a normal guitar case. I put it in my Gator Deluxe Tweed case and it just swallows it. Too big! I will have to figure out a case for it. The bag, strap, and cable that came with it are garbage. The only thing I don't like about it is it has the Glarry logo on the head which is not in the pics. Ugly logo poorly screen printed in white. I will remove that and then it will be perfect. I highly recommend this bass! I can't remember the last time I had this much fun with a new piece of gear!

I bought this bass for a school in the Philippines, and it is a perfect size for the students, and after setup it plays and sounds great. Note the "after setup" part. The intonation was so bad out of the box that I thought the frets were misplaced, and considered returning it as defective. It needed a TOTAL setup, as it wasn't even close, and was totally unplayable out of the box. Truss rod, saddle height and intonation all required major adjustment. Also the nut was a bit high, but I don't have slot files, and it turned out it was close enough. After setup it plays and sounds great, and the kids are having a good time learning to play bass.

5.0 out of 5 stars The neck was slightly out of adjustment and the intonation needed a major setup
Reviewed in the United States on October 28, 2023
You have to realize that this is an inexpensive bass and comes with low end strings and tuners. That said, the bass arrived in quite good shape. I was not familiar with setting up a bass but was smart enough to realize it needed a little work. A little YouTube University and online articles showed me what to look for and how to correct any found issues. I adjusted the neck and set the intonation. The bass now plays and stays in tune. In time I will replace the original strings and tuners. I use this bass for my Praise and Worship Team at church and, when plugged into a Line 6 HX stomp box, I can almost shake the church! I would definitely recommend this guitar!
