The Steel String Acoustic Guitar has a loud, bright ringing tone that clearly projects to the listener. This type of guitar is the backbone of most country and bluegrass bands. It's perfect for backing a singer and its stylistic palette encompasses everything from New Age and Country Blues, to hot Bluegrass flatpicking, jazz fusion and "unplugged" rock. Sound, beauty and price were all blended together when this guitar was created. From the deep, warm tones of the Mahogany back and sides to the loud, bright projection of the Solid Spruce top you'll never want to play anything else after you've put your hands one one of these guitars.

 Johnny's smiling! That's good enough for me! December 12, 2007

I hesitated buying this guitar for my grandson when I saw a few negative reviews, but when I checked the list, the 5- and 4-star reviews were double the negative ones, so I decided to purchase it.
I realize it's not the best on the market, but a beginner doesn't need the best. Kids often think they want to play the guitar, then later change their minds in favor of drums or something else that catches their eyes. With that in mind and the economical price and the accessories, it was a no-brainer decision. Besides, it's quite stylish in a neutral way; not glittery and showy like some guitars I've seen; more suitable for a 12-year-old.
When I saw Johnny's face light up when he opened his birthday gift ... well, that was priceless to me. It's three months later and he's still smiling, so I consider this one of my best investments.
He's learned a few songs already and is constantly in his room, practicing. Since the sound is good, the noise doesn't bother me. I'd much rather hear him play than listen to blaring rap music. :)
One reviewer complained about the carrying bag, but that didn't worry me at all. It was still a good value, with or without the bag, and we've had no problems yet.
I recommend this to beginning guitarists, no matter how old. If they stick with it and decide to go professional, they can go on to more expensive equipment later.

Guitar for beginner November 10, 2006

I purchased this guitar for my 13 year old son to learn on. It is a full sized guitar with good sound for the price, and came with strap, pitch pipe and some other small items - I'm not sure what all else. After having it for two months, the "Free carrying bag" is starting to wear in several places so we will purchase a hardsided case soon but, otherwise, a very nice and affordable product for a beginner to start out with.
Good product for the money. November 27, 2006

I got this for my nephew. He is just starting out with guitars. Did not want to spend a lot fo money as I am not sure if he will continue with guitars. Very pleased with the guitar so far. He has taken a few lessons and seems to like it very much. This set came with a gig bag, tuners, extra strings which was good. Good product for the money I would say.

This is a good valued guitar for people learning to play. I didn't want to pay $100+ for an instrument I might not like so this was perfect for experimenting and learning.

I bought this acoustic guitar as a gift for my husband and we love it. It was an excellent buy for the money. It came with everything it stated in the ad and we are very happy with it. My own experience with guitars is limited, so I cannot review the actual guitar from a musical perspective, but I just wanted to say that the seller did a good job providing us with an affordable product and it sounds great to me!
