READ THIS IF YOU'RE CONSIDERING BUYING THIS GUITAR!!! I bought this used - very good for 45 bucks about a year ago. I probably would not pay full price, as much as I love it. That being said, IT IS NOT JUNK GIVE IT TIME! I swear half the people leaving negative reviews have no idea how guitars work. I am a full grown adult guitar player, and I've been playing since high school. I'm in college now, and I needed something small and light to travel with. I DON'T USE THIS AS MY EVERYDAY GUITAR! I reach for this guy if I'm messing around with chords, my fingers hurt from my metal strings, or I'm just trying to relax. It's great to practice on, but not so much if you're trying to actually play in front of people. Nylons aren't meant to be used like metal stringed acoustics, they're a separate instrument! It still works for that purpose, though, you can play the same exact songs and chords. If you tune it properly it gets the job done. Great for my college dorm or throwing in the car for a camping trip cus it's super light. Great to practice on when I don't feel like lugging my full sized acoustic around. This is a decent product for the price I PAID. Being a nylon string guitar, you have to stretch the strings and tune it quite a bit (2-4 days is recommended for the strings to settle - watch a youtube tutorial on how to do it) Furthermore, the plastic strings that everyone complains about are standard on a nylon. Heck, the C40 from Yamaha, well established nylon, has the same type (but higher quality, I bet) if I recall. They do go out of tune pretty frequently, especially at the start, but it's not even that much - just retune them! The tuner works well for me, but if you don't like it, just get an app like GuitarTuna. Now, for the guitar itself, it's what I expected when I bought it for 45 bucks, barely even damaged since I got a higher quality used (or less damaged I guess) version, and I have to say, it has really grown on me. Guitars are instruments, not toys. You can't give it to a kid and expect them to learn the ins and outs. If you really want them to learn guitar, buy them a cheap acoustic like a rogue or Yamaha, a C40 is a great nylon but you could also get them a metal string, and get them lessons! Find a music store near you, it might be a bit pricey but it's the best way to learn. Originally I recommended swapping the strings, but it's not worth it to be honest. I got it back in 2021 for 45 USD used, and I love it for what I use it for. If you're dead-set on a cheap starter guitar, or you want an affordable spare, grab this but follow my advice. If you really want to learn, shell out the extra money and buy a tried and true brand. For the full price, 80 bucks is not worth it. Get a rogue for that money. Anyway, that's my rant, hope this helps! (I even bumped my review up from 4 to 5 stars - when I first wrote it, it was 1 star because I didn't understand stretching the nylon strings - IT TAKES TIME! but I genuinely love this thing!) Enjoy!

5.0 out of 5 stars Rich tone, great for beginners

For my teenage son (fourteen years old) this guitar has been a fantastic first instrument. It is a standard full size (39”) - it fits well on his lap. Despite being lightweight, it is surprisingly durable. It’s been a great beginner's guitar as it has everything one needs including a durable carrying a case, a tuner and even picks. I think this guitar will serve him for quite some time until we determine if he will pursue playing the guitar on a more professional level. It is excellent for practicing as it has excellent sound quality, and includes all the frills a novice may need. It is beautifully designed - it has a nice finish, it’s appearance is sleek. The sound quality is exceptional. It provides a warm and rich tone, making each strum sound beautiful.

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.
