It is beautiful, bought for my wife as a beginner. she loves it. took it in to get it set up to make it easier to play for about 50 dollars. Well worth it. It is a steel string. Have to realize takes awhile to get the finger tips conditioned.

Yes, they are steel strings. Rather unusual feeling ones at that. But don't let that discourage you, they sound absolutely lovely!

I believe the strings that come with the guitar are composite core with brass wrapping. I suggest buying new strings, as a few of mine had some damage, and were already stretched from being on the guitar, out of tune.

This guitar is on the top end of beginners guitars. Good quality for the price. Best thing you have to decide is your commitment to learn to play. The higher end guitars are easier to play and have a better sound. If you can afford a $400 - $600 guitar you will enjoy the learning experience more

The guitar is beautiful and built well. It is a good guitar for a beginner. I bought it for my wife, she is just learning to play. Put better strings on it. Well worth it.

Yes it is a metal string acoustic guitar. I am not sure if the metal is steel but I would assume so. And it is indeed very beautiful

Yes! This guitar is amazing. My husband has a Taylor and he likes playing this one just as much. We got this for our daughter, and she has learned all the chords, and actually plays for hours at a time. I'm sure you will be VERY pleased!! Best of luck with your new guitar, you will not regret buying it. Happy playing!

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. Personally I have only been taking lessons for 8 months now.

Its a great guitar but the action is a bit high. Barre chords could be difficult for her depending on her hand strength. If she's dead set on playing acoustic guitar, bring her to a music store and have her test out some steel string acoustics and nylon string classicals. That will give you a better idea of what will make her most happy with a first guitar.

Yes, they aren't steel strings, rather metal wound nylon strings that look like steel. I hope you enjoy your guitarlele!

steel strings. This is a great starter for my 10 yr. old. we did have to reglue the neck right at the body but that may have been because we tightened the strings too tight. For the price, we were impressed. She now is taking lessons and the guitar still sounds great. She's had it since April and it is still a nice piece. The case for it is good too. I would highly recommend this guitar to any starter!

Yes. It is. We've had this for 6 months now for my 6 year old son who takes lessons. So far this guitar has been a great beginner guitar. It rarely slips out of tune after practice making the next practice with the teacher get started with minimal tuning. We are happy with this choice.

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.

It came with steel strings and I've been using Martin Light Acoustic Strings. Sounds great, resonates better than my Fender Acoustic.

I don't think so. It's smaller than the traditional dreadnought. Personally I think it's a good starter for beginners of acoustic guitar. Sounds well, plays well and a decent price for its quality. Best thing to do though is to try it out to satisfy your curiosity. Any other questions, Ill be happy to help.

Technically that is correct. It is a classical guitar with the first three strings being nylon and the other three are metal but made for the classical style guitar. It is an excellent guitar. My son has played guitar for 12 yrs and recommends it for his students whom he teaches and so does his classical guitar teacher/mentor. It has a very good sound and good quality for the price. My younger daughter is now using the 3/4 size and it sounds great.

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'm kind of beginner, and I got some recommendation from my friends. This guitar is little expensive for beginners. But, if you think you will play the guitar next several years, it is really good guitar for you.

For a beginner yes, I believe it is for it has the correct weight and after learning a few chords it plays very well. I just like it for just being able to pick it up and play. When you improve graduate to the next.

The strings are steel with a wood guitar. I ordered it for my five year old grandaughter,we were amazed how awesome it is. My son is going to wait a couple years and have her take lessons. She LOVED it, but just strums it now. Really was a couple steps up from what i thought i was getting. Very nice for the price.

Yes, this is a great guitar. The price is really good. This guitar will last a long time. I think you will be disappointed with anything less and end up buying another anyway.
