- THIS IS A GREAT GUITAR.IT IS WELL WORTH THE MONEY.YOU SHOULD DEFINITELY CONSIDER BUYING THIS GUITAR.i have had mine for 2 years and have had no problems with it.and let me tell you i play this guitar constantly i rarely EVER put it down.
- I am in love with this pack! I got this set around New Year's Day. I classify myself into the beginner>low intermediate bracket, so I'll explain what each thing is so beginners/parents know what I'm talking about. This is my first electric guitar (up until then, I played my mom's old Resonata classical). This set is amazing! It has everything a beginner needs to become an intermediate/pro.
Get this kit!

- I purchased this for a Santa gift for a public school kid. I opened the box to be sure it was in good condition. It is a cute little toy guitar, very lightweight and easily managed by a child. The tuning pegs need to be tightened in order to tune the guitar. Once I tuned it, it sounded pretty good but hard for an adult's fingers. It is real wood and these are real guitar strings, and includes accessories. I only wish I could see this little girl's face when she opens the gift from Santa! The price is right for a functioning guitar for a little kid to start off with.
- The strings wouldn't tighten. Not sure if it's worth paying more shipping to return it.
- This kid acoustic guitar looks really nice, but when it comes to using it, we had to DUCT TAPE the tuner knobs in order to keep the strings in place. And we had to use A LOT OF DUCT TAPE. The guitar is of no use if the strings won't stay in place and without duct tape, we couldn't get one string to play.
Now that it is all duct taped, my 3 year old does enjoy it, but the toy shouldn't have to be duct taped in order to work properly.
- We purchased this guitar as a Christmas present for our young son, since he sees daddy playing guitar quite a bit. It is a very stylish looking guitar with nice accessories, but don't expect to be able to tune it to sound anything like an actual guitar. It is best for pretend play more than anything.

5 comments about Epiphone Les Paul Standard Plain Top Electric Guitar, Ebony.
- Excelente sonido, no pesa casi nada, esteticamente perfecta!, no dudaria en comprarme otro modelo de epiphone, solo fue un poco dificil el envio hasta mi pais pero 100% recomendada.
- not bad def for the price. the action is great it can be a bit muddy but all in all a clean sound with a clasic look i would have to say you should def buy one
- This guitar is the best guitar ever! It is a sweet guitar! It feels, soundS and looks like a real les paul. It is a great investment! I have played a lot of real les pauls and other guitars and this is the best! I even have my own little Squire Strat which is a good guitar, but I think this is the best guitar on earth!!!!!!!!!! I would definately buy this guitar if I were you!!! But I got mine from a store, so I think you should go and try some out. I got mine for around $400 and it is sweet! I played it for 12 hours straight after I got it, plus a ton during the rest of the week and it hardly went out of tune. It has great sound and sustain and as someone said in one review for another guitar, I have to look down to make sure it is me playing it because it sounds so good!!!!! I LOVE THIS GUITAR! IT ROCKS AND IS THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
- Now while I can't say that this is just as good as a Gibson its close enough. Bought this guitar from American Musical Supply for $319.99 (with free shipping) and for the price it is not bad at all. I ordered it on Sunday night arrived Wednesday playable right out of the box!!!
Looks
Its truly beautiful not as detailed as Gibson but who cares. I got the ebony with chrome hardware the picture does not do this guitar justice. I swear it looks three times as good as it does in the picture.
Sound
For a guitar of this price the pickups are great. On a clean channel the neck/rhythm pickup provides a nice thick rich warm bluesy tone with sustain that seems to last forever! While the bridge/treble pickup provides a bright perfect tone. When mixed with my Big Muff Pi & Boss DS-2
Turbo Distortion pedals (both are a great buy) it provides deep smooth rhythms and ear scorching leads.
Durability
The guitar it self is very well made and can take quite a beating.
My only gripe so far is it goes out of tune with the original strings. So I swapped them out for a new set haven't had a problem since.
Overall
If your looking for a cheap alternative to a $2000-3000 Gibson Les Paul without sacrificing sound or durability this is by far your best bet. If something ever happened to it without a thought I'd replace it in a second.
- This is my first real guitar. I had an older Epiphone acoustic and the action was punishing, making it difficult for me to learn. I decided to get an electric and did my research here on Amazon. I am so glad that I bought this guitar. It sounds beautiful, and really motivates me to play and learn more. My fingers are throbbing right now, and I love it!! I would have to chime in and say that the original strings (which I still have on it) tend to get slightly out of tune after hammering away for a couple of hours. I plan to restringing it this weekend. I LOVE this guitar!!!

- I bought this guitar for my 6 yr old son. I was taking a chance w/ this one, there was no reviews for it. And all the other reviews for the other guitars were not appealing. But this one was a different brand so I went for it!
The results were very rewarding. When u tighten the strings they stay tightened and it sounds great for a kids guitar. The guiter is made very nicely and very durable. I am definately glad I bought this one.
To be sure the strings stayed tighten we played it for over an hour w/ no problems.
If you're looking for a good kids guitar buy this one A++++++++
Also my mother wants me to buy one for her for her birthday she likes the small size than to the traditional size. She says it's easier for her to handle and it sounds nice. I know it sounds funny but it's true. So silly! lol.

- The guitar is beautiful! My daughter just loves it & has taken her first guitar lesson. The only down fall is that it doesn't come with an amp but that is probably the norm. I would buy it again!
- Bought this for my 5 year old daughter and she loves it. I have been playing guitar for over 20 years, know alot about Washburn guitars, they make some really good guitars, this is no exception. But remember this is a beginners guitar, don't expect a $2000 and up guiatr, it is what it is. Had to do a little adjusting(lower the stings)and it was good to go. Looks really good too.
- We bought this for our 9 year old daughter's birthday. It was a hit, she absolutley loves it, we were impressed with how pretty it is. I only wish it came with a better amp, we are looking forward for our daughter to begin guitar lessons in mid-spring.
- We bought this guitar for my six-year old daughter on her birthday this summer. It's a mini version of an adult electric guitar. Its a perfect size for her to handle and she loves it!

- I just got this guitar in the mail, and as soon as I pickes the box up, it was very light weight, that was my first sign that something was wrong. Then, when I opened the box there was the guitar, but it was so crappy. The strings are so thin that one of them broke on the first day (and I'm a really careful person), the actual guitar is very thin, and the paint was done very poorly. The head part of the guitar doesn't look anything like the one in the preview, and I cant find where you put hook up the strap on one end. Please I beg of you DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT! It may be inexpensive, but you should save your money for something better!...oh and the frets are messed up too!!!
- I was so pleased with this guitar. It was my first acoustic guitar, but I am glad that I purchased this guitar- it's been slammed into walls, and the wood still looks good. It was easy for me to play, and I plan on buying future guitars from Austin Bazaar. Only one bad thing- I received a red pick.
- I recently decided to learn guitar and thought about teaching myself at home. Bought this guitar through Amazon.com after looking at some decent reviews on it and saw that the price is unbeatable. I like the fact that it is small and lightweight, and that it comes with a set of accessories, but I found it hard to tune. I would play a song that would sound 'right' going up the scale but sound 'off' going down the scale. I decided to take a class a month ago, and last week, my instructor tried to tune my guitar, and he said the guitar has an 'intonation' issue, which means that the guitar just wouldn't tune on chords even if the individual strings are in tune. I suspect there are problems with the frets markings. Overall, since I am pretty tolerant and big on cheap bargains, I would say this item is an okay bargain, and if you are unsure about pursuing guitar but need an instrument to try out, then you may want to get this. I was able to play melody ('Amazing Grace','Star Spangled Banner', etc) just fine. It will probably start giving me issues once I start playing chords. But if you are serious about playing guitar, get a better one, this one is a no go.
- Please do not be tempted by the low price. This is a poor quality guitar and will only lead to fustration for beginniners. When I purchased mine, I immediately noticed the poor paint job, and several nicks and dents along the body. But most importantly the bridge is the incorrect size, which makes the guitar impossible to properly tune, or keep in tune without replacing it. Also, the board it's connected to is held in place with only plastic pegs with no sealing around it, which means it is only a matter of time before it breaks.
I purchased mine thinking it would be a fine learner guitar, but after of few weeks of constantly trying to keep it in tune (Guitar strings should settle after only a couple of days, not weeks) I was so fustrated with it and gave it to my teacher to take a look at it, who pointed out these two important defects.
- I also received a gig bag...since I do not know how to play a guitar yet I will have to wait until I start practicing on the instrument with my tutorials I ordered whenever they get here that is...LOL! Hope I made first beginner guitar choice though. Anyway like I always say,the ladies are gonna be lining up to talk to PeNName with his brand new Crescent 38" Blue Cutaway Acoustic Guitar with Gig Bag and accesories!

5 comments about Amigo 1/2 Size Classical Guitar for Kids or Children.
- I wasn't very happy with this little guitar when it arrived. There were several strings that sounded deadened, and it would not stay in tune. Since I already owned the guitar, I decided to see what could be done. I bought a new set of Gotoh classical tuners,a new set of quality strings, and proceeded to install them.
Installing the tuners was easy and straigt forward, the only caution I have is to look at how the old pegs turn before you install the new ones. I didn't know how to tie the strings, so I Googled installing nylon strings, and found instructions that were easy to follow.
After installing the tuners and pre-stretching the strings, I was pleasantly surprised with the sound of this little guitar, and it now holds its tune very well.
- this guitar is a real instrument. It keeps the tuning for quite some time and sounds pretty good for its size. Even with adult fingers you can play it and our kids love it. Very good value for money and a good first guitar. If your kid loves it it can really be played on, if your kid does not love it, it's not a big financial loss either. So if you are thinking your kid may be interested in playing the guitar this appears to be a good starting point. Very recommendable.
- We bought this guitar for our son for Christmas after reading the positive reviews. It's better than the piece of junk you get from a toy store, but definitely not a real instrument. The strings do not hold tone - our boy still prefers to play with Daddy's guitars. We kept this one just so the little one can bang it on the floor instead of the real guitars. Quite disappointed, I'd have to say!
- I bought this for my kids and I ended up teaching my wife to play the guitar. It is actually an awesome little guitar for beginners and experienced players. Definite winner.
- I shopped around for a low priced classical guitar and bought this one based on reviews. I was not only not dissapointed, I was very surprised with the quality of the instrument. I own three other premium guitars and have played guitar for thirty years. This guitar is a remarkable value at the price. One point to consider is that you will have to tune the guitar several times to allow the nylon strings to stretch enough to remain in tune as you play. This is common with nylon strings. There is nothing wrong with the tuning machines, as another reviewer has suggested.

5 comments about Fender Starcaster Strat and Accessory Pack, Candy Apple Red.
- I bought this kit for my daughter when she decided she wanted to learn to play an electric guitar. This kit was perfect for a beginner and had all the items needed to get her started right away... It is a good quality item and looks great, she is enjoying it very much... The only additional item to be purchased was a headset -- to keep the noise level down and mama happy...
- basically, this here is a perfectly legit guitar. I was really lucky and got a nice one. But if you want a starter "fender" guitar. Go to your nearest guitar center (or musician's friend) and pickup up a Squier Jagmaster. Much better guitar, same price without an amp.
the amp is decent, the distortion can get heavy, but really noisy. Decent starter kit. but for the same price, you could probably "assemble" a better one
- I had the Fender Starcaster Strat Candy Apple Red for about a month now...and I totally love it! This is my first guitar ever, and I didn't know anything about guitars before, except they sound cool.
The guitar itself is well built, the color is splendid. Maybe some of the details are not top quality (like screws and knobs), but I believe that the overall quality is adequate for a first guitar and it reflects the price. The guitar comes ready to play, all you need is tuning. Again, it is my first guitar and I am not an expert, but the Fender Starcaster Strat sounds fine to me. Somebody complained in other reviews about the guitar not staying in tune: I had no issue so far and I play pretty much every day.
The whole accessory package is nice. You will find everything you need to get started, including a 10W amplifier and a bag for the guitar. When reading other's reviews about this product I remember that some were not satisfied with the amp, some were excited. As usual I believe the truth is in between. The amp is relatively small, but the sound is fine and it has volume, treble and bass knobs, input and headphones sockets. It also has a clean/O.D. switch. The "clean" position offers a crisp sound. The O.D. position is simply a distortion, which is cool, but for some reason it is subject to a lot of electric noise, and the amp pick radio stations...
With this said I only have one suggestion: if this is your first guitar and you wanna start to play and rock, then this is the one to go with. Maybe you won't be able to do amazing solos, but by the time you'll learn how to play them, you will probably want a better guitar anyway.
Although weak in some details, I gave 5 starts to this guitar pack because it is 100% complete and, in my opinion at least, completely satisfactory.
- I am very happy with the guitar that I recently purchased. The sellers really hook you up with lots of goodies--everything that you need to start playing the guitar, and the candy-apple red color doesn't suck at all!
- I don't know a lot about music, but as far as I can tell, this guitar does what it's supposed to. If I knew more about guitars, perhaps I could write a more critical review. Nonetheless, I was able to hook it to an amp easily, tune it with the tuner, and play along with an instructional cd (I purchased it separately). I'm definitely not disappointed.

- When we received the guitar we were surprized at the overall quality of the package. The sound is excellent and very easy to play. This is absolutely the best deal not only for beginners but for the seasoned player as well.
- Hi I'm Rachael, This guitar is so beautiful. It's even nicer than the picture. I love it so much. It was packaged very well and came out of the box still smelling like finish. It's very sturdy and comes with everything a beginner needs: chord chart, digital tuner, picks, a nice bag and strap. I love this guitar - I even took it to a music store and the guy said it was a great guitar and for 90$ it was a steal. He also said it had a very cool sound and said he was going to buy one lol. This is a great guitar for ANYONE and for a first guitar I couldnt ask for more. It's crafted perfectly and there are no flaws in the finish. I would definetly reccommend this guitar to everyone. I know its tempting when you see all theses 30$ guitars on here but I promise that you wont regret it if you spend a few extra dollars and get this one.
- The item arrived in excellent condition. It was nice to get some free picks and a soft case but the tuner is worthless. Now the problem with this guitar is that it has poor tone. The sound is not the bright clear ringing sound you normally get with a good steel string acoustic guitar. Part of that is due to the quality of the strings. But, I would spend a little more to get a better product.
- Reasonable investment to see if my child really wants to learn to play. If not, it's a nice resale item. If so, she can buy her next good one.
- Muy buena guitarra acústica, buen sonido, fuerte, trae los siguientes accesorios: funda, pajuelas, afinador digital, correa y tabla de acordes mayores y menores básicos. La recibí bien empacada y protegida. el envío fue rápido y seguro. Muy buena relación precio / calidad. La recomiendo para quienes estamos empezando en el excitante mundo de la música.
