Would this stand work well for a child-sized guitar and would it be easy for the child (age 7) to sit the guitar correctly in it?

Yes this stand would work for a child-sized guitar. The stand is adjustable to fit all size guitars and should not be a problem for a 7 year old to handle.

I would say yes, in fact it might fit better than the full size one my son uses it for. It is pretty stable so a 7 year old should be able to manage just fine. I got it for the portability as my son travels so I do not know if there might be a better model for a stationery situation.

Depends how small the guitar is, but it should fit ok. It's fairly straight forward placing the guitar on the stand, I think a 7 year old could do it.

Holds our 3/4 size guitar just fine and my kids (10,8) have no trouble getting it to sit correctly. It is notched out a bit in the bottom to kind of force everything in the right position.

Yes I bought 3 of them because I have 3 guitars at home. Two for adults and one little for learning and the stand is adjustable for any size. Congratulations and enjoy it!

I guess it would depend on the size of the kid's guitar. There was a previous question where they asked for the width of the tubes on the base. The height is adjustable. I would think it would probably work. Refer to the previous questions and answers and then measure your child's guitar. Hope this helps.

I got one for my 8 yr old daughter last year. She is tall for her age - could pass for a 10-11 yr old. It is a good fit for her. her guitar teacher said it is a good size for her. It's about 38" in length and about 14" at it's widest spot.

You mean a junior sized guitar? It will hold any guitar with a width of 7-8 inches. So I believe a kids guitar would work just fine. If not its pretty easy to return.

Hi, Adrianne happy to help.... The Fender Mini Acoustic Guitar Stand is designed to hold a full sized guitar...while it will actually "hold" a 3/4 sized guitar I believe it will aesthetically not be pleasing since the holders, legs, and spine are NOT adjustable.

personally I think it would be too large. Our daughter is 17 and began guitar this year and bought this model and it is large and heavier than other models. I would recommend a lighter, smaller one.

I bought it for my 7 year old, who isn't very tall, and it has worked fine. I think you will be happy with it.

Probably not. We bought it for my 8 yr old son, and it's a touch big for him maybe. But I'm 6'2" and it's really too small for me. I suppose you can make anything work, and I'm no guitar player, but it feels small for me.

No it would not be too small. I bought it for my son for his guitar lesson and it is a little too big for him but for 5'4", it should be okay. My son is 8 years old.

Yes! My 6-year-old is currently learning on this guitar. The neck width is narrower, making it easier for smaller hands to grab chords.

I don't think it would be a good idea it is about 3/4 of the size of a normal one it is not a tiny guitar. By the way we finally got to tune it properly

the guitar I had when I was 12 was bigger and heavier than this, so I guess this one would be OK for your kid, and the strings are really soft,so his/her little fingers wouldn't feel miserable as mine did when I just started to play guitar.

I tried to use it, but it's flimsy and would not hold, more then a few arrangements on it, and you may or may not know, some music books are quite bulky, and heavy........so no this is stand is just for kids......

I can't say that the case is recommended, but the question is, does the guitar fit in it properly. check the SKB website for the dimensions. If the guitar fits in the case within 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch in body width and length, it should work. As for the case itself, it's a good one. I just shipped out four guitars in these cases and have complete confidence in them. www.ladueguitars.com www.facebook/kevinladueguitars

I I don't want to say that it couldn't "work" for a child- I don't know the age, and humans beings are amazing creatures, and if your child is serious about playing guitar and harmonica at the same time, they''ll make it work- even if it takes placing a towel on neck or what have you. It's been a solid holder for me, and I'd recommend it. Don't know if that helps, but my main point is that musicians will find a way to make music.

I would say this is mainly for kids. Although, I know nothing about guitar's....so it may be suitable for kids. But I just think it looks a little smaller than an adult guitar.

Should be ok. I don't have an ovation to try it on but this stand is specifically made to handle acoustic (wide) as well as electric (narrow) guitars. I do have a Gretchen hollvody electric which is in between body width and it works fine for that as well. I should think as long as the width of the lower bout spans the arms of the stand you should be good.
