is this guitar for 9-11years old kids

I bought one for my 10 yr old grandson to play. It's a bit heavy; so, he plays sitting down. Being an electric guitar has two benefits for a young person. The neck is narrower than an acoustic guitar which is easier for them to play chords. Also, it takes less pressure on an electric to press the strings down. Anyway, my grandson likes it.

This electric guitar is a full size guitar and probably not suitable for most 9-11 year old children.

I bought one for my daughter, and after one year of lessons and practice she understands how nice the sound is and what a quality bargain we have in this guitar...! But she is 40 and really takes good care of it, and that is where the difference will be for your child. This is by far an excellent beginner guitar, great sound, quality, and could last for yrs with proper care...

I bought it to teach my daughter who is four to play. It is definately not like a junior Martin. It's just about as big as my other guitars.

Yes. That is the perfect age for this guitar. You might want to use some nylon strings, but at some point you need to toughen up the fingers no matter the age. I think this is a great guitar that has good sound and will last until they are ready to buy their own pro guitar. I was suprised at the quality package.

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

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

Metal strings come on it but can be changed to nylon. The strings can be adjusted a little closer to the neck, too, to make the action easier for smaller hands. That adjusting is easy but you need to know what you are doing. It's somewhat a handful to my 8 year old grand daughter, but she makes due without real problems or complaints. By age 12 (sixth grade) fingers should fit better on the neck. It would be a good one....for the neck is on the smaller size; and it is a pretty good guitar.

hi maripearl,this is a full size adult guitar. not that kid's can't learn on it but it might be a bit big for a ten year old. but the price is unbeatable for the quality.

Yes, I think it would be okay. It is easy to fret. But the neck is the standard width of a classical guitar. Will the 6 year old be able to play barre chords on it?

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!!!

No bought it for my 4 year old and its perfect! Abd planning to get a 3/4 for my 10 year old who is on the big side for 10. So 3/4 or a small regular guitar would be best for a 13yr old

Yes it is. It's not to big and it's not tiny. I'm 13 and it works for me, it's a nice guitar too. The tuner works good.

I think its possible for a 5 year old boy to enjoy the toy. My 4 year old girl loves it and she is turning 5 soon. My brother who is 39 years old was also elated that the keys were the actual notes on a guitar. His only complaint or thought was he wished it could go from major to minor chords. How funny is that?!!

I bought it for my 3 year old grandson. I don't know if it would be good for an eleven year old. By the time my grandson is eleven I would buy him a professional set if he still liked playing the drums. Tough call.

I bought this for my boys at 10, it's a nice guitar. Depending on what your plans are for your 6 year old they can grow into it as it's quality enough to last and is what the music instructor suggested to me for my boys. My twins are 10 and pretty small so it shouldn't be too bad size wise. If you are looking for more of a toy one this isn't it. My smaller twin was 50 inches tall and 48lbs if that helps all. Feel free to ask anything else you need, I know I needed it when I was looking.

I bought it as a gift for my granddaughter, age 12, and she loves hers. She is also taking lessons at school. It's a good fit, size-wise. You might want to replace the guitar "strings" with silk and steel strings if you're concerned about tender fingers. Possibly nylon strings but I'm not sure if they'd work. And if you do decide to replace the strings, choose the lightest gauge you can since they aren't as hard on unseasoned fingers as heavier gauge strings.
