Thomann C-404 NT Set 4-stars Reviews

Good fun

Went for the cheapest one as I was living in south Italy for a few months, and was surprised by the sound.

Superb quality for the money

Needed a guitar to be delivered somewhere I couldn't take mine, so went for this cheapie. Was really surprised at the quality at the price. Stars are given bearing the price in mind rather than in absolute terms. Small issue in that I found the strings a bit dull, and also they took days to get up to and keep pitch. I replaced them quite quickly with better ones. But you really can't have everything at this sort of price. The accessory pack is a bargain, a no-brainer to include. Take the set, add a set of strings - Daddario EJ45, or EJ43 if you like low tension - and a music stand, and you are off. Actually this set is a real service to the guitar community, a nice guitar for beginners, but not just for beginners. A little bit of setup work to bring the action down slightly would pay dividends for more advanced players, but not needed right away.

A beginners recommended set

Altough the quality is not excelent it is according to the price paid. Sound OK. Ideal for beginners.

Bought it for a beginner

The guitar has enough quality, playability and sound for any beginner. I would not choose it for a school where several people should hand on it. Just like a personal instrument for a beginner is fair good. Once the person is sure of carring on the adventure of learning guitar, this can become a travelling one and a better one the main instrument. I would not say you get what you pay for in this case because you get much more of what you pay for. A worst Chinese guitar will cost you the same without gig bag and accessories. But do not expect a concert guitar for this price and you would be on the good track.

Reasonable price and quality

Very suitable for beginners, reasonable price, high efficiency

All basic accessories are available and can be used for a long time
