38" COFFEE Acoustic Guitar Starter Package (Guitar, Gig Bag, Strap, Pick, eBook)

This was a gift for my daughter to start to learn to play, and she loves it! It fits well in her lap, and though the case is kind of crappy, the guitar itself works very well for her. She loved the stickers that came with it, and even though we will be getting her a new guitar strap later on, this one works okay for right now. Its not something I expect her to be playing in thirty years, but it is a great starter piece for a kid.

The guitar arrived on time via UPS. I wasn't home when it was delivered (it was at the apartment door).

The cardboard case was damaged and the guitar had a 1-2 inch scratch on the side of the neck. I filed no claim because the instrument:

1. remains in tune,

2. has excellent (unexpected) resonance,

3. neck is straight, and,

4. I am going to convert it into a resonator.

It is about 38" long, slightly less than standard.

Even if I wasn't about to make the conversion, I highly recommend the guitar, particularily because to the surprisingly rich sound. It also works well for bottleneck slide

If I could have found a broken, usable guitar for the conversion, I'd leave the $29.99 as is because it is certainly worth the price. I sorta hate to cut it how (but it just occured to me that it will sound very good as a resonator also.

This is a great guitar if you have a child who is interested in playing. Alot better quality for the price. I checked at our Local-Walmart and there was nothing comparible at all for the price... It was a Birthday Present for our 8 year old daughter and she loves it!
