I've been playing for 20+ years and remembered that the nylon string guitars were easier on the fingers. Because there's no value in turning my son off to music, this feature is important. (Another reviewer points out that it doesn't stay in tune; that's true, but if memory serves, it should get better over time as they stretch). When compared to other units, this is great. The finish is nice. It sounds nice, too (although my fingers are too big!!) My particular guitar is a classical style and the tuners are adequate. I may or may not work on it a bit more as other reviewers have but mine is pretty darn good, right out of the box. The only issue is the low E can bounce off the first fret but that's only if you're trying to make that happen. Or playing like Mr. Townsend, I suppose. UPDATE: We gave this to my son at Christmas. It's now March and the nylon strings have largely stabilized; they aren't going out of tune...

It isn't bad in general, but we have had one problem with it. It refuses to stay in tune long enough to play more than one song. And the tuning pins seems to slip a little. It must be tuned so frequently that this has become rather frustrating. Perhaps it just needs more time for the strings to settle in, but my other guitars are not this difficult to keep in tune. If you can deal with the tuning problem, I guess it would be a good beginner's guitar. For what I paid for it, I guess you can't complain. I suppose you could say that it's good for a beginner to have to do frequent tuning and that way he learns very quickly the notes of each open string! Just be aware that if you would be frustrated by frequent tuning, this one may not be for you. 38 of 40 people found the following review helpful: Perfect Guitar for toddlers!, By J. P.

My husband has many guitars and has been playing for years and he thinks this is a good one too. Seems like good quality, nice nylon strings that work just like real ones, and the perfect size for my son. |
