8 year old what size guitar
1984473
A 30" guitar will do fine for an 8 year old. Most guitars are 38 to 42", so this size should be fine. You might also look at the Cordoba C-1 1/4 size, although it's quite a bit more expensive. This would probably make a decent starter guitar (ie cheap but useable for at least a year or two).

A guitar is measured from bridge to nut. This one measures 21 1/2 in that measurement. I believe it would be a 1/2 size. My petite 8 year old daughter has enjoyed it for 2 years. She will likely outgrow it by next year. It has been the perfect beginner guitar. I recommend getting the case as well.

Yes, it will be the size for a 13 year old. However, this guitar has very poor tuning parts so that no one can tune well. It will not keep tuned sound at all. so, you may want to find different makers....

3/4 is much smaller though not as small as a childs play guitar you see in the toy aisles. Good for a child 8 to 12 or so. ( or person of very small stature)

It really depends on the child's size, but a rough estimate for that age would probably be 1/8. You should take your child to a music store so they can give you a better estimate.

It's a standard size 3/4 guitar about 38" x 14" would be my guess. I am not at home right now. My daughter has grown out of it but if you are 5' 2" and shorter probably good to stick with this. The nut is also smaller about 1.5 inches (means the strings are closer together so if you have skinny fingers will work great).

This guitar is a nice first guitar. I bought it for my 12 yr old and it is nice and small, perfect for smaller fingers. Sounds great. Very good quality for the price. My son can also play it and he is 14 and has been playing for 5 yrs. when he plays it, it sounds AWESOME!! So basically, this guitar can work for any age:))

It's perfect size for that age. I got one for my 11 year old daughter and 6 year old niece. For the low price, irbid actually a pretty nice guitar. 38 inches tall and the bottom I the body (widest part) is 14.5 inches

From what I've learned, a guitar is measured from nut to bridge. I measured this one and it is 21 1/2 inches. I believe it is considered a 1/2 size. My daughter is a petite 8 year old and this size is perfect for her. She has had it for 2 years. She'll likely size up by next year. It has been the perfect beginner guitar.

The length of the guitar is 31 1/2", just right for my little 4 year old granddaughter.

Hi M. Stewart, I own a G9126 and even that it is a small beautiful guitar the neck is almost as wide as a regular size guitar. I think the space between frets and strings will be to big for a small hands kid. The Cordoba guilele and Yamaha gitalele will be more suitable for your kid (because of the thinner neck they have), they are both cheaper on price and quality but not that much on sound. The Yamaha comes in different colors.....you can also check smallguitars.com

Excellent! I have an 8 year old that has been taking lessons for 6 months now. It is a great guitar. I have had people who have played for years tell me what a great guitar it is for the price!!!

The guitar is adult sized. I bought it for my teen son who is basically adult sized. I'd say it would fit fine for an older child or teen. But my judgment is a bit skewed as my boys are very tall. It is just important a child can get his/her arm over the top and reach the strings

Depends on their size. My daughter is 7 and four feet tall. This guitar is just a little too big for her. But, not by much.

I don't know much about guitars, but my son is 17 and 6 foot tall and it seems to be a decent size for him.

My granddaughter turned 9 and was her birthday present. Along with lessons. Her instructor complimented the guitar and she is totaly capable in learning and playing it. But I do presume it would depend on the childs frame size. If she is petite i would search for something smaller or wait a few years.

This piano is probably too small for an 8 year old, but it has so many features that it might be alright for an 8 year old, especially if that child loves music. (Might have to sit on the floor to play it) I brought this for a 2 year old, who was really too young for this type piano because he has yet to comprehend all the feature that this piano has but he will grow into it.C
