It's a smaller guitar than I expected, and the strings are poor quality nylon -- the 1E string snapped on me as I was tuning it, five minutes out of the box. Also, because it doesn't have a trust board, you can't restring it steel strings. The "tuner" it comes with is just a pitch pipe (with a tinny sound at that), and the other "accessories" aren't as great an added advantage as you'd think. Personally, I returned this after the string snapped on me. I'd recommend this guitar only if you're an absolute beginner, and even then, you'd probably want to learn on something a little more durable than this. 13 of 16 people found the following review helpful: By Mat Priester, Fan of a lotta different music (Beaufort, South Carolina) - See all my reviews This review is from: Beginner 38" Blue Guitar with Carrying Bag and Accessories This guitar is really cheap, so it doesnt surprise me that it's made from a nameless company, the tuner is just a pitch pipe. The whole package is a sham, please buy the Yamaha C40 instead, save your money and dont but this. 5 of 5 people found the following review helpful: By This review is from: Beginner 38" Blue Guitar with Carrying Bag and Accessories I was interested in learning to play guitar and was looking for an inexpensive item to begin with. If you or your kids are the type of people who (like me) would want to play around with things before actually going in for an expensive equivalent, this is a guitar you can start with. Particularly for kids who are crazy about guitars, but who are playful enough to break things within days of buying new equipment (I have broken a lot of things when I was young), this is a good buy. The guitar is light and the sound, good (it needs tuning). It comes with a carry bag, extra strings, Linden binding, a plastic pick, and a good-sounding pitch pipe (for tuning the guitar). The pitch pipe tuner has to be blown into,(it looks like a mouth-organ or harmonica), to hear the sound you would get when you strum the guitar in 1E, 2B, 3G, 4D, 5A, and 6E, so that you can tune each string. At first, it would be hard for the beginner to tune the guitar to the sound of the pipe, but hey, we all learn...Read more |
