## Description

Junior-sized nylon string classical guitar with compact design for young hands. Includes carrying case and free online lessons to get beginners started.

Review: Fantastic first guitar for kids - incredible value! - If you are looking for a first instrument to introduce a child to music, this Guitar is an absolute standout choice. For the very reasonable price tag, the overall build quality is surprisingly impressive. It feels sturdy and well-crafted, easily handling the occasional bump that comes with being handled by a child. The guitar is proportioned perfectly for younger children. My 7-year-old daughter plays it comfortably, and the nylon strings are much gentler on beginner fingertips than steel-string alternatives. Out of the box, it’s lightweight, easy to tune, and comes bundled with access to online lessons. This has been a fantastic bonus for keeping her engaged with both home practice and school music activities. She is completely in love with it! If you want a budget-friendly starter guitar that doesn't feel cheap, this is well worth every penny.
Review: Very good for low commitment starter guitar - Brought this because my 5 year daughter was pestering me to have a go on my guitar (which was a present from a relative, therefore too sentimental to be broken). I didn't want to buy a tiny plastic guitar which can't be tuned but at the same time wanted something good enough that if my children did want to take up guitar it was there for a potential chord learning. The quality of the guitar seems good to me for the price, obviously not professional standards, I think one of the low strings twangs a bit, doesn't bother me. It's a nice solid wood, fully varnished, strings have enough tension to be tuned properly and the fret-board/neck is about the right size for a 5 year old's fingers in my opinion. I saw a review on here whereby the bridge completely unstuck after it had been "professionally tuned". We didn't have any problems, had it over two months now. I tuned it myself, and just very gently pulled on the nylon strings upward when tuning it for the first time to give them a little bit of flexibility (don't do this on steel string guitars by the way). It naturally de-tuned itself in the first couple of days, this is normal for new strings, after that it's been fine. I just re-iterate to my 5 and 3 year olds to just respect the guitar, i.e. not leave it on the floor, put it in the corner when you're not using it etc. etc., normal with children, and a nice learning experience on how to treat instruments. I've found myself picking it up and have a few practice runs myself as it's in the living room to hand! Cheap price and a reasonable quality considering the price. Design is generic enough to out live a child's fast changing trends and tastes, so should do until they leave primary school and then until they want to get serious with guitar playing. Excellent and would recommend.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: On the reviews it said that the guitar comes with tuning pipes, cd, and booklet however did not receive these.  Was I supposed to receive them?**
A: My godchild was unable to tune his at all, as fast as you got it in tune it went out again.  It didn't come with any of the above, just a case. We were very embarrassed and disappointed. But they lived too far away for me to get it back and return it. So we wasted our money. If you want it to enable a child to learn to play I would say it was not suitable at all.

**Q: Im stuck between 1/2 or 3/4 size for my 8 yesr old daughter could someone help please**
A: I bought this for my 7 year old grandson, in blue. He loves it. It's a size that he can manage comfortably

**Q: What size 34 or 36 inches**
A: Neither, it's 30 inches in length. I bought it for my grandson when he was 6 years old. He is now 8 years old and is still using it. Hope that helps you.

**Q: Is it blue or purple**
A: The one I purchased for my grandson was dark blue

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very good for low commitment starter guitar

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good value as a first guitar for a very young child but manage your expectations
*by J***V on 12 August 2026*

I bought this for €33 for my 3 year old who has started showing an interest in my guitars. For that purpose I think it's actually very good value for money. The seller describes it as not being a toy and while I would agree that it's a step above a toy guitar I wouldn't consider it a proper musical instrument either. I think it sits somewhere in between and at this price that's perfectly reasonable. For a 3 year old who wants to strum along and get used to holding and handling a guitar it's a great option. I'd much rather give a young child something like this than spend considerably more on a proper small guitar before knowing whether the interest will last. There are some compromises in the construction. The frets aren't separate metal frets embedded into the fingerboard as you would find on a proper guitar. They seem to be moulded as part of the fingerboard with a gold paint coating. I would therefore expect them to wear down considerably faster from contact with the strings. There are also some small imperfections in the finish of the fingerboard/neck on mine, which can be seen in the photos. The string action is relatively high but okay. None of this particularly bothers me given the price and what I bought it for. However, I would not recommend this to someone looking for a cheap travel guitar or as an instrument for a child who is going to start formal guitar lessons. In either of those cases, I would spend more and buy a proper instrument with conventional frets and better construction (like a Stagg or Ibanez, they go for about €100 to €150) For a very young child who is interested in guitars and whose parents aren't ready to spend the money on a proper instrument yet I think it's a great option. The tuning is surprisingly stable for the price. As with any new set of strings they need some time to stretch and settle but after that it holds its tuning reasonably well (some of the negative reviews I suspect did not give sufficient time for the strings to settle). Good value for its intended purpose provided you know what you're buying. 4 stars from me just due to the fingerboard and neck imperfections.
