Austin Bazaar 38" Blue Acoustic Guitar with Accessories

I cannot use this guitar. When I bend the strings, it produces a horrible scratching sound which renders the guitar unusable. The fret markers amazingly HAVE GROOVES, which causes friction against the string when bent. Also, there are numerous cosmetic imperfections and defects which annoy me while playing this guitar.

The strings have oxidation (even the spare strings) which causes additional friction when playing.

The cheap, plasticky tuning keys do not stay in place, and the guitar gets out of tune after only three songs or less.

I could live with the physical defects, however when playing higher notes (10th fret and above), the string is barely audible, even when applying higher finger pressure than usual, which means the neck is BENT! I CANNOT USE THIS GUITAR.

I NEED TO RETURN IT.
