Customer Reviews
This is not a toy.
I have an Almansa 435 Seniorita, which is a very lovely little
classical guitar, so I have some idea what a decent classical guitar
should sound like. I got this little one for my son, who is 5, and
didnt want to spend much because you know how children can be when it
comes to lessons and instruments. I was very surprised at the quality
of the sound. It is still in it's breaking in period, so the strings
are still stretching, but it sounds really, really, nice. I even played
on it myself (you know, just to get it warmed up for my son!) and it
truly is not bad. Doesnt sound "tinny" or "toyish". Sounds like a
classical guitar. Now I bought a much more expensive one a few years
ago for my daughter, who has since given up the guitar, and that was
handmade in mexico, solid wood, 3/4 size, and didn't sound nearly as
good as this little thing. For this price, you get a solid spruce top,
the finish is nice, kind of matted, the tuners are pretty good, and so
far the strings aren't too bad. The base strings look like they could
be silver-plated. Unfortunately you dont get any product information in
the box so who knows where the strings came from and what kind they are
(the guitar is romanian), but the main thing is that the guitar sounds
so nice that a child will be encouraged to continue, the teacher will
be pleased, and the parents will not have to suffer from more than the
usual beginning-any-instrument "noises", and perhaps a lot less because
it has such a pleasant sound. Now of course it isnt comparable to the
almansa or to finer guitars, but for a young child who is serious about
wanting to study classical guitar, this is a very fine instrument at an
EXCELLENT price. This model is sold on other sites for about 20 dollars
more, but why pay that?! If you are looking for a small guitar for your
young child, this one is a very good bet. A real, very decent sounding,
classical guitar for the price of a toy one!
A kids guitar you can be happy with
We bought this guitar for our smaller seven year old son. It was
hard to choose a guitar, because there are so many out there...toy
version and real...but which to choose? This one is worth the pos.
feedback I am giving it. It seemed so small and cute when I opened it,
but it is perfect for little hands and bodies! I found the price very
reasonable since we aren't sure if he will "keep the interest",(some
toy ones cost close to this) but yet I wanted him to feel like he was
getting a REAL guitar, in hopes that he will keep learning. I found
that the guitar is very nice, not a toy at all, tunes well, looks very
attractive and sounds nice too. I was impressed that it came with a
warranty. I am happy that I didn't spend close to this for the toy
versions...and I got the real deal instead. Shipping was INCREDIBLY
fast from this company.
Good value
I've been playing guitar for about 10 years and recently wanted to
get my Son a guitar for his birthday. The look of the guitar is nice
and the sound is decent. For 50.00, the guitar is a solid value. the
overall sound of the guitar is some where between ukulele and a full
size guitar.
