Is it a good guitar for smaller hands? I need the frets to be closer together..Currently have 2 Squires.

No ... Squires or any Fender have smaller / narrower/ flatter necks ... My hands are "Super Tiny " Frets are exactly the same distance apart on all guitars ... I have 3 Epis 1 Gibson , 1 Yamaha Strat & 1 Alverez acoustic .. The Yamaha is the flattest & easiest to play ... Then the Gibson 335 has a nice small neck [ Trini Lopez Model ] .. That is why I bought it in the first place .. Try them out & you will see what you have is best for you ..

In my opinion you would have no issues with the size of this guitar neck if you're having no issues with the Fender Squires. I don't think this Epiphone Les Paul Special is a big guitar in any way and the neck should be pretty comfortable for most adults and older kids who have hands that are somewhat small.

Yes, it's a smaller scale. Typical fenders have a 25.5" scale, les Paul's, (most gibsons) have a 24.75" scale. You could look at a squier jaguar or a jazzmaster, those have a 24" scale. All in all, it was a fun little guitar while I had it. Can't beat the price.

This is a standard size. I believe it is a little big for you. I suggest you to go to a shop and try different guitars; then, start searching something like those you liked most either because the size or another special feature.

I've only had the guitar for a month now and it's ok... It actually looks quite solid and in my opinion it will last a while.. That being said I saw a few other mini guitars at a fraction of the price and sound good... Go to the shop and have a look before u decide!

Jeff I do not own the guitar anymore. I realize it was only $200, but I still wasn't all that impressed with it. Sorry I can't help you with this. Good luck!

Indoneisa, i wouldnt worry about that tho, if u want a nice acoustic for cheap this is the guitar. It resonates really nice almost like it has an effect. Also, the fret job isnt that bad wich i thouhht it would be when i was purchasing. Its smaller than you think tho so make sure u know what scale guitar yoir looking at before u buy this, it suprised me but im still very sattisfied

As a left handed beginner where ur choise of guitars are very limited; this is a very good guitar for the price. The tuner can b used to plug in an amp or tune ur strings. So tuner will b helpful unless u carry around an tuner. Now this was my forst guitar which i learned then passed down to a friend. So its a good guitar for beginners.

I do not quite understand your question. In my opinion, it is an excellent guitar, the sound and the look are pleasant to me, especially its size fits my short fingers pretty well.

My 8 year old grand daughter loves this guitar I bought her. At that age any guitar is a little large. The neck (for hand reach) is on the smaller size, better for smaller hands. She plays it several times a day while singing and smiling. Strings are metal but nylon could be used if one wanted. Finger tips always need a couple weeks to "toughen-up." Her 12 year old friend who plays in a band recommended this to Fern as the guitar to get. Grandpa Charlie

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.

Not real comfortable but you can manage. I am an adult male and I mess around with my daughters guitar. If you have small hands it would probably be just fine. The strings are closer together.

This is an awesome guitar. The guitar is made well and looks very nice. However, it can easily be damaged if dropped or banged against something. I am a girl with small hands and it is much easier for me to play with this smaller guitar. I don't really know how big six year old hands are but I think this 3/4 guitar would be easier to use than the normal size ones. Hopes this helps.

Yes. I have very large hands and short fat fingers, and this is one of the easiest and comfortable guitars to play, that I have ever owned, and I've owned quite a few. I highly recommend this one. A lot of guitar for the money.

It will work ,but the radius is off and the saddles are fixed . The strings still move around in the grooves, you will have to up your string gauge . I put folded tin foil under my low and high e to get the radius right ,and you don't HAVE to replace the stock bridge its just fine ,it was said this Squire is truer to the original than the Fender model the mods you make will be dependent on you playing style ,and preferences research all the mods ,look up Elvis Costellos Jazzmaster ,that guitar is setup to gig ,unless your a pro you wont need it to be that stable .Good luck .It really is a great guitar (for the price ) dont over do it, love it for what it is .

Fretwork was tight , I went over it lightly out of habit. If they're all like mine then you cant lose. Im comparing this to necks already on guitars as this is the first neck Ive ever purchased new. Ive been playing about 20yrs only builing since last year, hope that helps.

Hi, My grandsons received one last Christmas because they wanted to take lessons. But, they lost interest and the guitars probably haven't been used much. I don't have any way of knowing how they would have held up. I bought this guitar because of all the reviews of parents who had purchased it.I believe it was a 3/4 size for smaller hands.

Dear CTS, I checked out one of the C7's and the action as it comes from Cordoba is 2.8mm on 6th string and 2.5 mm on the first string. There is some buzzing on the 6th string at the 3rd fret if the guitar is overplayed. I normally would raise the action until this buzzing stops, but if you like that very low action, I can leave it there. The frets are level and there is the proper amount of relief in the neck, so to raise the action I would replace the saddle.Let us know if you are interested.Thanks!Daniel, Calido Guitars

Depends on what you mean by fat fingers. The spacing on this guitar is pretty much standard run of the mill spacing, not especially close, but not as wide as say, a classic nylon guitar. But all you have to do is look at someone like Roy Clark who did pretty well on a standard Gibson neck with his fat fingers. Just gotta try it and see. Just be sure and check the return policy before you put any money down.
