4.0 out of 5 stars
It's definetly plastic but fun, November 9, 2006
This review is from: MiJam Guitar (Toy)
I bought this beacause I had already bought the drumsticks and they were fun to play with.
The Guitar is not quite as much fun. It doesn't resemble the original thing quite as much as the drumsticks but still I am having fun playing it.
You can plug it into your Ipod and play along with music.
I am happy with it.

This review is from: MiJam Guitar (Toy)
Was looking for a realistic looking toy guitar with some good sounds for my grandson's 3rd birthday. Everything else was either too real, with strings that had to be tuned, or too "cutesy", with funky shapes, coloring, and sounds. This one was just right, especially for a kid that was already picking up anything that even vaguely looked like a guitar and pretending to rock out with it (though he stopped using a toy violin when he found out it wasn't actually a guitar!). One of the other reviewers said, "I can't imagine any child over 4 being happy with the item" - this is what finally made me choose the B2. My grandson really loves it, and everyone else in the family has enjoyed messing around with it a little as well. Sounds are really good, but you can't hear them without using external speakers (computer or MP3 speakers work nicely), or headphones (recommended!). Not sure how "educational" this is, since it's not going to teach a kid anything about playing a real guitar. The only real negative, in my opinion, is with the iPod connection cable - it can't be removed and is always dangling. I'm also not sure how you'd really go about "playing along" with iPod songs - might be able to do so with the drumsticks, but with a four-chord toy guitar? OK... maybe a couple of Ramones tunes!

Disappointing, December 13, 2006
This review is from: MiJam Guitar (Toy)
I bought two of these toys for my 7 and 5 year olds who both wanted electric guitars for Christmas. I didn't think they were ready for the real thing so I bought the MiJam guitar as a compromise. When I received the product I was very disappointed. It is VERY small (about the size of a todler's toy guitar) and does not have strings. It looks like a cheap small plastic toy, not at all like the full-sized guitar pictured on the box being played by a teenager. For the price I should have realized how unrealistic it would be, but I think the product description is misleading. The product age range seems to be greatly over-estimated. I can't imagine any child over 4 being happy with the item.
