Great guitar! Not full size! Crisp sound! It comes with medium or medium light strings already on it! I would say it is a good beginner or intermediate guitar! Cool looking, better than the pictures! Easy to tune and replace strings! Light weight but surprisingly strong! Depends on when you purchase on how much you pay! This is my second acoustic guitar! Easier to play than my other guitar! Shipped fast and packed well in a large box!

The media could not be loaded. 10/17/2025 My original review is below. Donner’s warranty service team apparently kept looking into my issue after I thought i was stuck with a dud and decided to send me a replacement guitar. Judging by the overall glowing review of this guitar (part of why I bought it in the first place) I’m going to assume the one I’d initially received had a rare defect. The replacement appears to be identical in every way so no obvious modifications were made in manufacturing. A very hearty thank you to Donner for continuing to look into my issue and deciding to make good on their warranty! I’ll give 5 stars instead of my initial 2 because this really is an awesome guitar with wonderful sound at a surprisingly affordable price and now I know it’s backed by a real warranty. I’m impressed and even having to wait for a satisfactory warranty resolution doesn’t shake it earning 5 stars. Thanks again, Donner! — Original Review: — Such a lovely tone and aesthetically beautiful guitar. Bright with a deep bass and rich fullness of sound. Very pleasing. Unfortunately the adhesive holding the internal wood bridge supports to the carbon fiber face failed forward of the bridge two months after purchase (post return window). This resulted in a bulging face forward of the bridge, sinking face before the bridge, a bridge tilting toward the neck under strain, and a surprisingly de-tuned guitar when I returned from a 3 week trip. A cracking sound while re-tuning was very unsettling and likely from the supports further separating from the face under increasing tension. The guitar was stored in its case but the steel strings may demand too much from the adhesive. Or I got one with a manufacturing defect. I contacted Donner about the issue and their response was to take note of the manual’s warning about heat. They don’t have a temperature listed but possibly the black case absorbed heat and rose the temperature beyond their limit. I suggested they tab the carbon fiber to the bridge supports in future runs instead of simply gluing it. Hopefully you will have no issues. I’ve stored my Martin, Yamaha, and Takamine guitars in their cases without this issue so personally I feel either Donner uses a subpar glue or mine had a manufacturing defect they’re unwilling to acknowledge. Beautiful guitar, beautiful sound but be extra careful with yours. The one I got was certainly not built to last very long. Below is their note on care which may be all they’ll send you if you encounter the same adhesive failure I did. ————— Important Note: To prevent deformation, discoloration, or more serious damage to your guitar, please avoid storing it in the following conditions: -Direct sunlight (e.g., near a window) -High temperature (e.g., close to a heat source, outdoors, or in a car during the daytime) -Excessive humidity -Excessive dust -Strong vibration

This guitar came almost unplayable . So much now in the neck and the saddle was so high the strings were so far from the fretboard . I almost returned it . I am a luthier . After massive truss rod adjustment, a big shave on the saddle and new strings , this guitar is a keeper ! It's beautiful. The carbon fiber top to totally cool . No flaws in the construction . Tone is very nice . Pretty nice volume for a smaller guitar . Decent case too ! For the price ? Even if you can make the adjustments your self and pay for a set up , it's still well worth it . Very happy with my purchase 😀😁

I'm a self-taught player who finally was able to pick-up a guitar after retirement. I'm certainly not a great player by any stretch, but I do enjoy doing what I do finding song chords and messing around with fingerstyle play. In this journey of about 10 years or so, I've played numerous guitars...no different than a lot of 'music store rats' trying out various guitars, some that we can afford, and many that we can't. I've played and owned Taylors and Martins and a number of other high reputation guitars. I only mention that to provide you, the reader, with a perspective. I've come to find out that people who own guitars don't just own one, or two...probably more like 5, or more. Guitars are very personal. We obviously are very picky about their sound projected, how they feel and play and numerous other things. And so we think we like a guitar, buy it and then find out perhaps it wasn't the best choice or perhaps, and I'll use the phrase that I've read from others so many times, 'it's time to thin the herd!' My guitar journey has brought me to some realizations. I'm not going to play professionally.....Ha! In fact, other than that very occasional, mostly infrequent opportunity, I play for me. Every now and then I will play around the campfire for others etc, but usually it's me and perhaps my poor wife hearing me behind the closed doors. Another realization. You don't have to spend ridiculous amounts of money to either get quality or an excellent sounding guitar. I've played and purchased a few Eastman guitars that were/are incredible, great sounding guitars at a fraction of the cost for those top brands. It seems some guitar players have as much interest in owning those top brands....sometimes several of them....in fact will list them on forums like badges of honor, which I find most interesting. How many guitars does a person need? And finally, I realize that I know what I like. I have a pretty decent ear, something that has helped me considerably on my journey. I know there are many, many folks much more skilled than I am at a lot of things. Additionally, as I mentioned, guitars are very personal and assessments of them very subjective. I've tried guitars in music stores that were reviewed extremely well by multiple sources, some 'professional', and I was struck by how much I disagreed with their assessments. And so, I come to this little guy that I purchased a week or so ago. A quick side-story that leads to this. I have a brother who seems to have a similar interest in learning to play the guitar. Had a rather large Yamaha and although it was a nice sounding instrument, I advised him for learning purposes perhaps he ought to think about a short-scaled, smaller guitar. I did a little research for him and found this Donner guitar. He didn't want to spend much money.....check. It had pretty strong reviews. Sold his Yamaha and bought the Donner. He shared that he loved the feel, the sound...was really happy with his purchase. One day, he visited and brought the guitar. I was so impressed with this little guitar I ordered one. My 'go to' guitar that is always at my fingertips in my office has many battle scars. It has had many accidents in its life, cracked in a few places, yet still sounding decent. And it will find a new home. My wife and I have learned in our 'older age' when we are considering a purchase of something....'One out...one in.' This guitar will serve me incredibly well, I'm sure. It is extremely comfortable to play with its reduced size. It's extremely lightweight and is just a pleasure to hold and play. You can have all those things going for you, however if it doesn't sound good to your ear, you're not going to want to play it and you'll be 'thinning the herd' again soon. I've often heard smaller guitars described as having limited, 'tinny' sound. I'm amazed at how balanced the sound is. It's rich, full with nice highs and I can't believe the low end on this thing. Perhaps this might be one thing some will not find appealing about it....the low end is significant and some may find it overwhelms the mids and highs. Again, personal preference here. I like it. Donner describes its ability to get this kind of sound is from its unique bracing...I'm also sure it's from the carbon sound board. The richness of its sound and sustain are so surprising. It also stays in tune remarkably well. The guitar seems to be of high quality. I've looked it over thoroughly and I don't notice anything about it that reveals its pricepoint. So, finally...price. How a guitar that I like as much as I do (read into this my above War and Peace novel about perspective!) can be had for less than $200 is beyond me. If you're a beginner, like my brother, or not; if you want a guitar that you don't have to worry about dinging or whatever because you want to travel with it, or just have it for daily playing, I'd strongly suggest you would consider this guitar. I honestly think you'll not be disappointed.
