Not bad at all.
Color: Sunburst Size: 38 Inch
I have to say that I am impressed. While I must admit that I'm a beginner at guitar (I'm a former drummer that can no longer play due to health issues), I learned a lot about guitars from an old band mate. This beginner guitar sounds nice, and is of a better size for me to learn on. I have an old acoustic, but the body is far too large for me. This guitar arrived a little over an hour ago. No nicks, dings, or cracks on it. Checked the screws on the tuning machines, everything was good. Since the headstock is more of a classical style than a regular acoustic, I took off the steel strings that came on the guitar and replaced them with classical strings (nylon - medium tension). While it's going to take at least a few days for the nylon strings to stretch out enough before they stay in tune, I did get it tuned up for a bit and played a few chords. The guitar sounds wonderful, with a good bit of volume. I think I'll enjoy learning on this guitar. If you decide to get this guitar and go with nylon strings (which you should), unless you go with 'ball end' strings, you might have to look up how to 'tie' the nylon strings onto the guitar, as some nylon strings that you can get will not come with a ball end. I had helped do this on a guitar decades ago, but needed a refresher course, and found the information online easily enough. The reason I say you should use nylon strings is because they require less tension than the normal steel strings. Since this guitar does *not* have a truss rod, you want to go with strings that do not need as much tension. Using steel strings can cause problems with the bridge piece (breaking or coming off), the neck (warping), and the tuning pegs. You might be able to get away with using light or super light tension steel strings, but that's your choice. I'm sticking with the nylon strings. They bring out the sound that I want from this guitar. They're also easier to learn with as a beginner, as they don't hurt your fingertips as much. Yes, it will take longer to build up the callouses on the fingertips, but hey...less pain when learning can be a good thing. But again, for an inexpensive guitar, this one is a good deal. As with any instrument, if you're not sure if you, or the person you get it for, are going to maintain interest in learning the instrument...going with an inexpensive instrument like this is always the best idea. As for the other bits that come in this package...the picks are good, the case is good enough to keep dust off the guitar, the strap is not all that great, and the tuner is pretty much garbage because the battery cover does not want to stay on (I have another one just like it, and it has the same problem), and the pitch pipe is 'meh'. The main thing you want in this package is the guitar. Just get some better strings, a good tuner (I have a 'Snark' that wasn't expensive), and a decent guitar strap...and you're set. ... show more

38" Beginner Acoustic Guitar
Color: Purple Size: 38 Inch
We just got this Guitar today. We opened the box and were very impressed with the appearance! This is a gift for our granddaughter and she loves purple. This guitar is the perfect color with a beautiful gloss finish. There are other colors a person can choose from. The guitar has wire strings which is what we were looking for. It comes with a strap, a cover, extra strings, pics, and tuner. It sounds great and arrived in perfect condition. We can't wait to give it to our granddaughter. This guitar was priced very reasonable, is very durable, and comes with materials that will help any beginner get started. I would suggest that you purchase a solid case to protect this beautiful guitar. ... show more

I bought the guitar out of pure curiosity. I stumbled upon this package while looking for a guitar tuner and guitar strings. To my surprise, the guitar is actually playable almost straight out of the box. The finish was rathe decent for the price. it is not a full size guitar and it is not a 3/4 size kid’s guitar either. Instead, it is a 7/8 size guitar that’s good for travel and it will fit a smaller adult perfectly. The frets on the guitar are lower than usual but still very functional. I was expecting to see some rough edges on the frets but they were all very smooth. I was prepared to find at least one dead fret on the guitar but all notes were playable! Fret buzz is a very common problem on budget guitars. I only found 2 notes with minimal fret buzz and that’s really impressive for any guitar under $150. The frets on the guitar were definitely not smooth. Some light buffing with Mr. Clean’s Magic Eraser (the one people used to clean pots and pans) took care of the problem easily. DO NOT use the strings provided because the guitars definitely wasn’t designed to handle the tension from steel core acoustic guitar strings! Acoustic guitars used a different style tuning machine and a different style bridge. The neck of an acoustic guitar usually have a steel truss rod built in too. This is a classical guitar from head to toe and using the acoustic guitar strings provided will only cause MANY unnecessary problems! The tone of the guitar lacked resonance and projection due to its smaller size and the materials used. However, it still sound fairly decent which was far beyond my expectations for guitars at this price range. The sound is fairly clean and warm. You could improve the sound quality by using high tension nylon core classical guitar strings. High tension guitar strings will sound louder and brighter (at the cost of less sustain). Maybe this is the reason why the seller/importer elected to use steel core acoustic guitar strings at the cost of significantly shorter usable life and potential tuning problems. The tuning machine on the guitar will do their job. However, 2 of them need their screws hand tightened before they will function properly. Normally a new guitar needs to break in before they would stay in tune. Good guitars will break in within 2 hours and cheaper guitars could take 2-3 days. The guitar I received will go out of tune every 10-15min before I tighten the loose screws on the tuning machine. After the screws were tightened, the guitar will need to be re-tuned on a daily basis for 5 straight days. It took a whole week for the guitar to finally break in and stay in tune. Once the guitar broke in, it held its tune much better than expected. The tuner it came with worked nicely, The gig bag was not padded and offered no protection for the guitar. But at least it will help keep the dust off. The strap was cheap but functional. The picks seemed very nice and comparable to Fender picks. The pitch pipe was horrible but fun to play with. 5 out of 6 notes were way off! The note for the 1st string was a little high but at least it was close enough to be functional. Once you got a string in tune, you could use that string to tune the rest. I think every beginner should learn how to tune a guitar by ear. The only complaint I got for this guitar is that the frets weren't marked at the neck. New players will be playing blind until after they got used to it. A very minor problem that could be solved easily. ... show more

Pretty awesome beginner guitar
Color: Sunburst Size: 30 Inch
This is a really nice starter guitar for beginners, especially for younger players or anyone wanting something smaller and easier to handle. We got this for our 3 year old grandson and he loves whamming away on it trying to play. The 30-inch size feels more comfortable than a full-size guitar for him. It has a clean look and comes with the basic accessories needed to get started. The sound is really good for a beginner setup and works well for practice. The strings and tuning may need a little adjustment at first, but that's pretty normal. It’s lightweight and easy to carry around. The bundle setup makes it convenient without needing separate purchases. I feel like this is a super good entry-level option to learn on. ... show more

Great Toy, Horrible Choice for Actual Instrument
Color: Mint Green Size: 30 Inch
This guitar is fun for the littles, especially if they want to copy an older sibling or a parent, but it's not a viable instrument for a child interested in learning music properly (unless you're willing to invest time in fiddling with stuff normally left to a luthier or guitar tech). As a toy, I'd probably give it 4.5 starts. As an introductory instrument, I'd give it 1 star or maybe 2 at the most. If you are looking for a "toy" instrument that your child can strum on and bang around, this will suffice. It's lightweight and has a decent strap, makes sounds, and comes with the extras you'd expect in a beginner guitar kit. However, if you are looking for an affordable beginner/student instrument for your child, I would recommend an actual instrument manufacturer that produces 1/2 scale and 3/4 scale instruments like Yamaha (their APXT2 acoustic 3/4-scale guitars are fantastic quality for the price point). You are simply not going to find a decent instrument in the $50-$60 range unless you hit a home run and find a used instrument from a reputable manufacturer on eBay/Craigslist/FB Marketplace/your local music or guitar shop. Entry level student guitars are typically going to be at least $150+ for steel string and $125+ for nylon string/classical if buying new. ISSUES: - TUNING: similar to most toy stringed instruments, the strings constantly drop out of tune, especially in the lower registers, even with continuous stretching and retuning to break in the strings. For an instrument this small, tuning up to G or A will help keep the tensions better, but the strings/tuners still tend to slip. The tuners appear to be plastic finished to look like metal. - ACTION isn't terrible (not the worst I've seen on toy guitars), but still a little high. - INTONATION: This is one of the deal breakers. As you fret higher up the fingerboard the pitches go sharp and don't stay in tune. The distances between the nut to 12th fret and 12th fret to saddle are close to equivalent, so it may be an action issue or a fret placement issue. If you want to have a fun DIY luthier project to mess around with, then maybe this is a good starting place. Perhaps fiddling with the nut and/or saddle height would correct some of the tone issue, but I doubt that's something you want to do. I haven't checked fret spacing, but there's a chance this isn't tonally salvageable unless it's refretted. - FINISH: decent finish, but there is overspray from the body color on the base of the neck. I could see some value in using this to teach basic notes and open chord shapes, with the caveat that you may have difficulty having those notes sound at the correct tuned pitch (and chords may sound dissonant). As a toy, it's decent value, and better quality than other options. As an instrument for a child earnest about entering into wonder and joy of the world of music, it sounds bad and won't provide a serious experience. The time, effort, or money you'd have to spend to make this playable would be better invested in an actual student-grade/entry-level guitar. ... show more
