im looking for a great guitar under 200 dollars and i don`t know what the 4 turning things and the switch are because im a beginner could you tell me?

The switch is to select various pick up configurations and the four knobs are volume and tone controls for the 2 pick ups
1037236
They control the volume and the tone for each pickup. The pickups are what detect the sound.
1037237
Sure, they are the Tone and Volume knobs, they allow you to adjust the tone and volume of each individual pickup. The switch lets you select to play with the neck pickup alone, both pickup's at the same time or the bridge pickup alone. Hope that helps answer your question.

The knobs are volume and tone for each of the 2 pickups. The switch is a pickup selector that allows either or both pickups to be heard. It a very nice guitar.It sounds good, the action is good, fairly light, and consistent up and down the neck, (no buzz, no slipping out of tune,) the tuning pegs are good quality and the guitar stays in tune well. I'm very pleased with it and I highly recommend it.Good luck.

This guitar only has the set of strings it came with and they may be or may not be the ones you need. We don't know that much about guitars. Thanks!

It's a great guitar for beginners, i guess you can get softer strings for it and a better case, but apart from the i really recommend this.

This guitar is a nice first guitar. I bought it for my 12 yr old and it is nice and small, perfect for smaller fingers. Sounds great. Very good quality for the price. My son can also play it and he is 14 and has been playing for 5 yrs. when he plays it, it sounds AWESOME!! So basically, this guitar can work for any age:))

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.

The guitar sounds lovely and very easy to tune. I haven't done any slide, but I´m sure it will sound great. If you're learning this guitar is good choice. I've checked another one which is very nice and a lot more expensive (A Luna resonator electroacosutic)

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!

I gave my guitar and amp to a very dear friend down on his luck. I know it had switch for violin & guitar but don't truly remember anything else. I hope this helps. It worked great. My friend lives in the Bayou & lost several fingers. I am not comfortable asking him about it at this time.

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

I'd think that this particular guitar IS the beginners 'kit'. But if you like and need help tuning your guitar, then I'd suggest getting a device called 'the Snark.' It simply clamps onto the head-stock of the guitar and for probably less than $20.00, it's a great little piece of tech that really does help tune your guitar. I use one on my violin, mandolin, guitar, bass, dulcimer, and any other stringed music maker you might have or get in the future. Hope this helps some.

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 perfect for a beginner. As I have learned about the pick-ups. Get Fender Squier instead...I just picked one up for $30 put new strings and tuned it up. It Sound like new $300 guitar...xcheck out craigslist in your area. be surprise on the deals U find...action should be 4/64th on high and low strings. check the videos on youtube...

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.

Yes! This is an excellent guitar for a beginner or advanced player. I was amazed of the quality...enjoy!

Bret: it is a very well made guitar, despite its cost. It sounds very low without an amp, as many other solid bodies, however, while travelling, I used my iPad for a large variety of tones at room level, and it worked very well. A small battery power amp works well, too. If you use a large amp, it sounds fine, however it is relatively clean/dry, as expected from any piezo pickup. There are several videos on YouTube that show show you how to restring it very easily.The neck is similar to my Tele ´63 reissue or Les Paul 60s neck. It is confortable and the fretwork is excellent. I don´t think you can make a better electric guitar of this size and weight. Bret: it is a very well made guitar, despite its cost.

Hi from, Mike. The one that I bought was a round neck ?? Just like a standard guitar - Great guitar for the price - But did need to be set up to play right -

good beginner guitar! i would change the strings the originals aren't that great... the strings are higher off the fret board than most of my other guitars but it isn't too noticeable while playing
