Nice children guitar

It sounds incredible for its size and price. Good craftmanship. Needs tuning almost every single time before playing.

I am a keyboard player,i just bought it for my son.

It looks ok,sound is not bad,but nothing special.

Use better quality strings for better sound.

Keys aren't so good in my opinion.

Buy this in each color

I have a Baby Taylor to compare this to and this Startone is a nylon string version but with a classical guitar headstock. This guitar was packed with TLC I could tell as I opened the box and the blue finish is flawless. The guitar needs a bit of time to acclimatize to its new surroundings and the strings needed to be tuned a few times but seem to stay in tune. I love this guitar and am considering a red one next. I am older so a smaller 1/2 size guitar is easier on my hands and the nylon strings on my fingers. I wish it had a pick up. Dont hesitate over quality concerns or price! harrygrant.io

Great for children

I bought this guitar and an electric strat mini for my 7 year old son to start learning the instrument. The quality and price relationship is unmatched in my opinion. Do spend a few extra bucks to get it set up to lower the action which I would do regardless of the brand the instrument is from. Great for beginners

For 35 euros is more than good!

Ok for the price

Bought this to give to a friend's son who will begin learning the guitar. The tuners are pretty mediocre but do stay in tune which is a good thing. Build quality is pretty good for an instrument at this price point.

All in all, if this is your budget then I don't think you can find anything better at the price. Just don't expect to get great quality.

Great for the money

Purchased this for my 5 year old daughter for a Christmas present and had a little play on it myself before wrapping it up!

Pros

Good fretwork with no sharp edges.

Construction seems solid

Nice rounded sound

Easy on the fingers for a first guitar

Cons

Several blemishes and some light scratching in the finish

Overall, an absolute bargain for the money. If it were a more expensive guitar, I'd probably return it due to the low quality finish, but given the incredibly low cost, it's not really a problem.

If my daughter doesn't stick to learning the guitar, I can see myself chucking this in the car as a travel guitar when I go on holidays!

Surprisingly good guitar for that price range

I bought this to bring on travels and festivals and didn't expect much from it. But it holds the tuning surprisingly well and has a decent sound. The string action is also better than I expected. It loses intonation from fret 9 and up but that would be asking too much I think. The only problem is that it has no endpin.

Very good guitar

I bought it for my kids, that are having guitar lessons at school. The quality is very good, as well as the sound. Colours are fun! It would be great if it came with bag for transportation.
