This should be perfect for you! You can play plugged in or acoustically and it comes with a case and picks, so everything you need

It is worth the money, you do have to do a little tweaking though. I bought some 60 grit sandpaper and took about 1/2 off the bottom of the saddle (the white thing that the strings go over) take off a little at a time keeping the saddle straight on the sand paper until you reach the right height. You may have to remove the strings three or four times, you will know when you get there by how the strings feel as you are pressing them, Don't go so far that you get any fret buzz though!

It is a fairly nice guitar for the money, however it's not in the class of say a Fender or Yamaha acoustic. It is great for a tag along on a trip or to the beach, but isn't good enough to use semi or professionally..

I've had it for a year and haven't had any problems I totally recommend this for a beginner. It is a good guitar.

I was in the same boat. This is the first guitar I have owned PERSONALLY and I love it. Had it for 6 months or so now. Now that I know a bit more about guitars it is still one of the best sounding and solid guitars I've played. I would recommend finding one and trying it out as everyone likes different sounds. But 300 dollars for a very solid guitar isn't bad at all. I'd just go for it, it'll serve you well.

This is one of the best guitars for beginners but experienced players may be looking for something a little more. Thanks for your interest!

It honestly compares pretty well surprisingly. I set the action on mine pretty low and get great sound without any fret buzz. I picked up this guitar to have as an extra I could get a little rough with and not have to worry about it so much at its price. It actually sounds better than my 400 dollar Schecter.

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.

It's a nice little guitar for someone starting out. It's been pretty reliable but needs constant running. It doesn't always sound as it should. I guess it's a good starter guitar for someone who has an ear to tune it.

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.

I could consider this a starter guitar. I bought it for my son last year as a means to get started on the electric guitar and he is ready to graduate to something better. I would not recommend it for a serious player.

I think it is a good guitar for a 10yr old. If the interest fades you're not out a lot. My son likes his and the sound is really nice.

It's a dreadnought guitar and would be very good for a beginner. Sounds nice!

Hello R. Archer...in answer to your 2 questions, the answer to both is YES...it is a fantastic item...small enough to fit in your shirt pocket and big enough to do a professional job...I have been playing the guitar for 45 years...bought 2 of them to give to beginners...you will love it also.

I've only ever played it unplugged because I don't have an amp. Considering it's only a $100 dollar guitar, I think it sounds pretty decent. I also own a guitar that is in the $200-$300 dollar range, and I'd say that this one sounds better than the more expensive one.

It sounds fine for practice, learning, and general playing. I restrung mine with better strings and it made a big difference. After a year and a half I still say for the money you can't go wrong.

Personally I have only been taking lessons for 8 months now. I heard about this guitar from a friend of mine who has been playing for years and was in a band. He raved about this guitar which made me try it. I have had mine since May and I love it. I am really surprised how good it sounds and looks. It is a full size guitar however for an acoustic it is on the thin side. I did take this guitar to my local guitar shop and had them lower the action which made it so much better for my taste. It sounds good through an amp but I am guessing that is more of an opinion. There are no obvious problems with it. Hope this helps.

Frank, It is absolutely a good guitar for a 10 years old with this price. When I bought this guitar, my son was also 10 years old. This guitar was recommended by his guitar's instructor when my son started the lesson. Hope that your boy/girl would enjoy it.

yes, I got it for my son at age 18 and he liked it , and now he's better, so I got him a better guitar, but this is a good starter
