Is this a toy or real guitar for kids? Does it comes with strap knobs attached?

It does not. Nevertheless I bought it for my 6 yo daughter and she uses it perfectly with no extra effort to her hand.This ukulele is the middle ground between real musical instrument and a toy. It sounds good to me, at least enough as to teach her how to play it, my plan is to later (when she plays it well) buy her a real good one.

Definitely a toy. We thought it would be more like a real guitar. Try a Honer or a Tamara beginning guitar for kids. Much better instrument. You can always put a hello kitty sticker on it.

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.

Hahaha it's a real guitar. I know the price is shocking but it works. I would suggest changing out the strings when you get it though, they are cheap as a peep. Good beginner acoustic though

Yes, it is steel strings. There's a knob on the bottom of the guitar but I'm not sure there is a second knob to attach a strap at the neck.

I bought this little guitar for my 6 year old son to learn to play. I was amazed at how good it sounds that I started using it myself. This is a small guitar but not a toy guitar, it has great sound compared to regular sized guitars of the same price range. Hope this helps.

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.

No and it would not hold the tuning. I returned it. Not a good guitar even for a child.

There is only one strap button at the bottom and nothing by the neck. If a child is using the guitar, and required the use of a strap it could be a problem. But in my case I use this guitar as a travel one and the size is small enough where a strap is not required. Hope this helps.

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.

You mean a junior sized guitar? It will hold any guitar with a width of 7-8 inches. So I believe a kids guitar would work just fine. If not its pretty easy to return.

Yes. We put a strap on guitar since it was a starter for our granddaughter.

This is a great beginning guitar, but I think it would be to heavy to be comfortable for an 8 year old. http://www.firstguitar.com/electric-mini.htmlI think it is as important to learn on a quality guitar. The fender squire might be a better option, as it may be less unwieldy. Shop amps, as a guitar is often only as good as an amp lets it be :)

Yes it has two buttons for a strap. I'm still a newbie and do not know enough to provide any advice on strings...sorry.

If your child is serious about music spend the money and go to a local music store. This is more of a toy. If you're look for a toy then buy it but if your child is serious about guitar then take the advice I didn't and buy local and spend the extra money and get a real guitar. Don't be dumb like me and crap off amazon because you want to save money. It cost me more headaches then it was worth and I ended up buying a more expensive guitar from a local music store.

Hi,I agree with the other answerer; even though the body is ukulele sized, the neck is a pretty chunky classical guitar style neck, which is fatter than many electric guitar necks. I'd look for a half-size guitar made specifically for children, or maybe start them on a ukulele (4 strings).

Hello Rahul,Yes, this instrument is good for kids. My child is under 12yrs and the size is perfect. All I had to do was allow her music instructor to tune it for her. Other than that all is well. I have not had any incident with it and it is still in good working condition. I am a very satisfied customer with this product. I hope this helps to answer your questionBest regards

If it is a bit large you can get a strap. It is supposed to be a bit smaller then a regular one. If she is like my daughter then she will play and put away for awhile and then pick up again - she will grow into it. Not sure if you can get smaller without looking at something more custom. The other smaller guitars we found were more toyish and not as good quality - then there is the pink factor to consider - HTF.
