I am new to learning guitar and am a lefty. This guitar looks really good and sounds good too. The box was packaged well so nothing was broken. The guitar was in excellent shape and came with the picks, amplifier cord, strap, and an extra set of strings. I can't say it sounds "great" because I am just learning but it sounds great to me and has stayed in tune. Keep in mind that the strings were still stretching and forming the guitar for the first few days so I expected them to go a little out of tune for a bit. It's not much but just needed a little tweaking for the first few days. Since then, I have had no problems. I love that I can plug it into my little Donner cyclops amp and really get more of an experience out of it. I don't have any problems with how it looks but it's not a $300 or a multi-thousand dollar guitar so don't expect it to be. If you look close enough, you can see a little glue around the neck and the body but you really have to look. I am giving it five stars but others who expect perfection (even at a ridiculously low price) might not. Don't hesitate to get this if you are thinking of learning guitar. I am 52 and tried with a lap steel but was having problems and decided to start learning the acoustic first and then moving onto the lap steel. It's never too late to learn something new...or too early. If you, your child, or someone else you love expresses an interest in something, help them and encourage them. You never know. In this case, you might be out about a $100 bucks but you can sell it and get most of that back...or you might be seeing the next musical star blossom.
