Awesome Guitar , Plays and Sounds Excellent
I have to say, this is a very nice guitar, especially when you consider the price. Pros-Construction:The top is spruce, and appears to be solid. Back and sides are mahogany, and are laminate, which is common. A couple things stand out though, one is the binding around the body. It has a nice rounded edge which is very comfortable to hold. On most acoustic guitars, this edge is very sharp, which to be honest, you wouldn’t realize how uncomfortable it is until you’ve held one with the rounded edges. Very nice! Finish is a matte type, and I can’t see or feel any flaws. The edges of the fretboard have an inlaid plastic strip, which looks cool, but also should prevent “fret sprout”. This is something I have not seen on a guitar before, and it should work as intended. Speaking of the neck, there is no sharp ends on the frets, and the action is very low. All this is to say mine seems to have been very well setup from the factory. One final thing worth mentioning, is that older models of this guitar had text imprinted on the body just above the fretboard. Thankfully, Aklot has stopped doing this, as mine is text free. The only gripe I have, and it is a minor one, is that I wish Aklot had laser engraved their logo on the headstock instead of the screenprinting.Accessories-Included is a very nice gig bag, probably the nicest I have seen that is not a separate purchase. Well padded, and a nice thick grey canvas material. It also has a large front pocket, and a velcro neck strap inside. You also get a decent tuner, strap, picks, metal capo, string winder, and strings.Value-When you consider how well the guitar is built, and the great setup, it is well worth the price. Looking at the “big name” guitars, Fender has a similar guitar on Amazon (Fender FA-125) for $199, but it doesn’t include the nice gig bag, and has less accessories. You do get the Fender name on the headstock, if that is important to you. To me, it isn’t, and I think the Aklot guitar is an excellent value!

Value!
Great deal on a solid acoustic. Top, sides and back "appear" to be solid. Would love confirmation on this from a "pro"! Fretboard is NOT ebony, but some tech wood.. Nut and saddle "appear" to be bone. No sharp frets. Decent action out of the box. Beautiful finish with no blems. Comes with a form fitting gig bag- NOT a hard case. The gig bag is very durable and padded. Guitar sounds great. Good deal.

Excellent Value But Needed Some Work
The guitar looks fantastic. It is very well constructed and it really is all solid wood. Amazing at this price. However, The setup was not adequate out of the box. The action was pretty high and made playing up the neck difficult. In addition, the frets were very uneven up and down the neck, so a fret leveling was necessary to allow the guitar to play at its best. The tuning machines were very loose and needed tightening, but I have found this is often the case with guitars. I ended up replacing the tuners because the shafts on the tuning machines were pretty loose, and this does not make for quick and accurate tuning. I mean, they are adequate, but for a guitar this nice, investing in some better tuning machines is a good idea. The sound of the guitar is very nice indeed. And after a good proper setup, this guitar is a pleasure to play and sounds amazing. I would certainly recommend this guitar, but with the caveat that you may need to have some additional work done to bring it up to its full potential. And for the price, this guitar is a steal.

Great guitar package with lots to offer! Nice size for travel!
This guitar comes with a bunch of bells and whistles for a fairly inexpensive price. Included are strings, a capo, picks, an electronic clip-on tuner, a string winding tool, a pick-guard, a hex wrench (to adjust the truss rod), a strap and a padded case. The case has some fairly decent padding for the price! I like the compactness of the three-quarter size as I think this would be ideal for travel when compared to my full-sized guitars. It’s a fun guitar to just leave laying around the house for impromptu jam sessions.The guitar is set up with nylon strings, which takes a little more time to stretch out. The first few days of playing required constant tuning. This is expected (if you've ever put on new strings on an ukulele, then you know this). I’ve had the guitar for 2 weeks now and it doesn’t require frequent tuning.The fret spacing is spot-on. I like to check for intonation by playing up and down the neck on single strings with a tuner. Each note played in tune. The guitar has a warm tone that sounds good with a pick or finger-style.Initially I was a little surprised that the pick-guard wasn’t attached. I understand now that some classical guitarists like the option of not having a pick-guard to let the soundboard resonate. Depending on your school of thought, a pick-guard may be more for aesthetics anyway. It is nice that you have the option of putting on a pick-guard or not.The string action (height of strings above the frets) was pretty high at about 17/64 inch above the 12th fret. I used the hex wrench on the truss rod (almost 2 full turns) to adjust the neck such that the strings are now about 7/64 inch above the 12th fret. Now the guitar plays like a champ! This kind of procedure could be intimidating to some beginners, but know that adjusting the truss rod every now and then is just a fact-of-life for guitars!Overall this is a great guitar package that would make anybody happy.

This guitar really surprise me with its build quality. For the price, it is definitely a great deal when it comes along with every accessory you would need to start your classes. My wife got crazy to learn guitar suddenly, so I start searching for all the options online, I ended with this.This Guitar come with Excellent build quality for the wood and even the strings and Sound is good enough on comparing to the online teaching videos when tutor plays costly ones. Loved the color finish, It comes with everything you need to start guitar training. Has bunch of accessories gig bag, strap, tuner, picks, string, capo, pick guard, cleaning cloth, winder included in.Overall it is a great product considering the price. Recommended.

Well made and great for a beginner of any age
I like the size of the 38 inch guitar. I am a beginner but at 5’3” find a larger guitar hard to maneuver while I’m learning. I find the nylon strings are difficult to keep in tune but that is the only flaw I find so far. The mahogany wood does give a nice sound and the guitar is attractive and appears well made. The tuner works simply and does what it needs to do. The gig bag is well made and the other accessories will come in handy as well. I am just learning how to play the guitar but have been in the process for a couple of years off and on and I feel I got great value for the inexpensive price of the product.

go for it !
This is what I like to call value for money, it is worth every single cent. The sound is crisp and clear, the high and low pitch sounds are balanced and regular, It is perfect for the beginners like myself. The sounds were very well adjusted and I did not had to do much adjustments while comparing on digital tuner, moreover it does not require frequent tuning. the set comes with all the accessories that one would need as a guitarist. the guitar itself is very comfortable to hold, use and it lightweight.from the price perspective, I would say that it is much inexpensive compared with others out there with similar quality. based upon my usage so far, I can easily recommend it.

Great beginner friendly guitar!!
I was looking for a new beginner friendly guitar in budget and so bought this one. This is my second guitar, using it for learning. I also got one from the same brand in past which was so good that my brother took that from me. Haha. This new one is great as well. I like the wooden classic color and the finish. Feels elegant in hand. Besides, it comes with a lot of accessories, for example- a tuner, handy carrying bag, capo, extra strings, strap, some colorful picks and so on.The guitar sounds amazing. Its loud and clear. The build quality is good and sturdy. Fret board height is adjustable as expected. One thing that i didn't like was the strap color that came with it, not a big deal but a solid color starp would have been great. Still learning tho, I feel this is a perfect guitar for any beginner.
