Good starter set
By S. HARVEY
I purchased this for my 7 year old son who won't put it down. The guitar is just the right size for a child of 7 upwards. The guitar is finished extremely well. The sound from the built in speaker is ok even though the sound only cuts in at 8 on the dial . I recommend purchasing a separate amp. I was not so impressed with the strap which has already split at one end because it was manufactured with cheap materials. Other than that I would recommend this guitar as a good starting point for any budding Eddie Van Halen.

good but not great
By heliwr
I had been warned in proper guitar shops that most of these kinds of guitars were pretty poor but took a gamble. Overall build quality is very good (for a toy) the neck is nice and the frets well finished. Sound through the onboard speaker is ok as long as your expectations are not to high, it's a distorted speaker sound ok for a toy, sound through an amp or ear phones is fine. The tuning it tricky, so far I found two reasons for this, the screws in the bridge are too long so they foul the strings, I put in some shorter screws which helped. The second problem is that the strings are too light so the low E does not have enough tension, I suspect that heavier gauge strings would help, certainly tuning up a tone to F# made a big improvement. The volume pot is not at all progressive, it's off at 0 and full volume at about 1 so from 2 to 10 is a waste of time, it could be that this is a linear pot and should be replaced by a log pot (cost 2 to 3 quid) which I will try when I get the time.CONCLUSION;It's a toy but with a bit of work and reasonable outlay could be made into a real instrument. Also this is the best price I could find anywhere.That's my opinion but if you can then get into a shop and try one first.

A decent guitar for the money.
By Hele
This tunes up well. It feels solid and pretty well constructed for the price. The instructional dvd is a bonus. It should be possible to get a reasonable tune from it. The volume knob doesn't seem to actually make any difference though.
