5.0 out of 5 stars Very well made child's musical instrument. Holds its tune, unlike other small beginner guitars.
Reviewed in the United States on April 6, 2024
Very pleased with this guitar that is very well made. It includes the truss and truss adjustment that stabilizes the neck against the stretch of the guitar strings, so that it holds its tune. It is a musical instrument - not a frustrating toy for a beginning learner. The included tuner works for all of the notes. This was not so for a competitor we purchased and returned since it was poorly made and didn't hold a tune at all!) I ordered replacement strings from a music store, since another reviewer suggested that. But, so far we are happy with the strings that it came with. After buying the cheaper one, I delved further into research for a child's guitar and found this was recommended by a true guitar manufacturer. A big brand name was twice the cost or more, which wasn't reasonable for what may be a passing interest for our grandchild. It is not a small "parlor" guitar for an adult, but has the smaller neck and fret length for small child's hands. Very nice tone given the small size. We have not used the online lessons, since we will let our son set that up but that's a nice extra.

These are my favorite little guitars! I have small hands so I use them for me as an adult. I replace the strings with d'addario 1/2 silver strings

And I get a ukulele strap to attach to it and it makes a beautiful sound! Sometimes I need to tighten the frets a little bit, and the nylon strings need to be tightened each day for a few days as is very typical for guitars. It is also just the right size for my kids and I have bought several over the years. I also get a case for a 30" guitar which fits it perfectly.
All in all, it's a great little guitar and it plays beautifully! At this price point, it's a good place to get started!

4.0 out of 5 stars Pretty Good Beginner Guitar That’s Fun For Any Skill Level
Reviewed in the United States on January 5, 2024
So I really like this guitar! It has a hard plastic (or something similar) body that feels very solid and feels like it will last a long time as well. It has a really deep resonate tone as well. I chose the 30” version because I also have a KALA Baritone Ukelele and a Yamaha Guitalele. This one is pretty close in size to the KALA Baritone Uke, and quite a bit bigger than the Guitalele. But it sounds very much as loud and deep as a standard sized guitar. Its nylon strings are comfortable on the fingers and the neck is straight and overall is pretty well setup. My main concern with it is that the action is just too high to easily play. I can’t imagine how a novice would enjoy playing this. It takes a different amount of pressure to fret a note at the first fret than it does at the 12th. Or the 5th even. Or the 2nd actually. My plan is to lower the action at the bridge. The string height at the first fret/nut is actually reall good. I have some (a little) experience working on banjos and the “repair” I have to perform is fairly minimal. Even so, I have the proper tools to modify the bridge and to accurately measure the action as I go along. So I feel very comfortable making this change.

Now, the question for you is: Was the 30” version I got the same as all other 30” in terms of string height? My guess is probably so. Is the larger size versions of this guitar the same as a the smallest size in that the action will be too high? I’m going to hazard a guess and say no. As the size goes up, especially, I would think the action would be much better. That actually occurred to me when I chose the 30” but I wanted one to practice with and tool around on that was about the same size as my other small instruments. It makes it easier to switch from one to the other when the sizes are more consistent. And besides, I am learning to play mandolin as well and the strings of a mandolin are very close together and very close to the fret board,, so I wanted to keep the guitar action closer to that so practice on one would transfer to practice on the mandolin. Overall I like this guitar very much! It is fun to play, even with the high string action. When I lower the strings, it will be about as perfect (for me) as a small inexpensive guitar can be. Oh, meant to add also that this is light years in quality beyond those crappy little toy guitars you find at Walmart.

3.0 out of 5 stars OK - no 2 month free music lessons
Reviewed in the United States on May 3, 2023
We purchased this to see if our 5 year old would stick with guitar before buying a more expensive instrument. This is decent enough for what we purchased it for. If you care about quality this is not for you. Parts of the guitar were dinged and paint scratched off sound is not great but good enough if you’re testing out a new learners interest. THERE IS NO MUSIC CLASS SUBSCRIPTION! I partially ordered this guitar over a slightly cheaper one because that is what they advertised. When I went to redeem my subscription they told me it’s actually a $40.00 coupon and can only be used once - that means you can only purchase ONE lesson. If the lesson costs less than 40.00 the balance of the money is forfeited by you. So if you take a $2.00 group lesson you lose the rest of the $38.00. This is not a two month music lesson subscription by any means. When I confronted the company about it showing the flyer that came with the guitar they did not respond back.

1.0 out of 5 stars This is a true Pile of Garbage
Reviewed in the United States on April 15, 2024
I've played many 3 string guitars made from cigar boxes that sounds 20 times better than this guitar and that is not to mention the "craftmanship" or rather lack of. If you are looking for a beginner guitar for your kid, keep looking. If you are just looking for a toy guitar, there are cheaper ones out there that sound and look just as bad.
