My wife got this for our two-year-old son at the same time as she got me a beautiful Takamine acoustic, also from Amazon - she wisely and correctly thought that it would stave off "MY guitar" rages from him if I was playing and he didn't have one to use. The guitar is just the right size for him and he totally loves to strum it and sing. If, however, you're looking for something you can actually play, look elsewhere - it fails to stay in tune even for a few seconds (even though I tightened the heads) and the tuning of the frets is waaaay off. So you can't or don't care to play chords, but if your kid's looking for a nice looking guitar which is fun to strum and which will also hopefully give them a chance to learn to respect and look after an instrument, this is perfect.

I didn't expect this to be more than a toy, but certainly expected that the strings wouldn't be falling off when it arrived. Item is not safe to give to a young child. Forget tuning the thing (I hadn't planned on it, anyway), but the strings won't stay taut, even after tightening the screws. My son is three and really wants to play with the thing, but it's so frustrating for him because it keeps falling apart that he doesn't even pick it up anymore.

i was very disappointed it looked nothing like the picture and it keeps breaking. my daughter really wanted a guitar she cried all christmas day cause this guitar kept breaking.

The guitar looks nothing like it does in the picture, it is extremely poor quality. Two of the strings werent even attatched when I received it and I cant get them reattatched. This was suppose to be a Christmas present for my daughter, looks like I spent $25 for kindling wood. Horrible!

Poorly made product; the guitar immediately goes out of tune. Children do not want to play with it.

Paid $20 for this = strings brittle and could not keep tightened. Strings broke - I returned this, paid shipping back $7 - still haven't received my refund. Don't buy it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

This guitar would be for decorative purposes only. It is of very low quality. It was shipped in the original box. It arrived with the box completely destroyed and the guitar inside really beat up. It could not be given as the gift it was intended for.

Shipping was very, very fast.

This "guitar" is completely useless. It does not stay tuned for 2 seconds. It's a cheap piece of junk. I had promised my son a guitar for his 4th birthday and he was in tears he was so disappointed. As was I.

In addition, it does NOT come with the strap it is pictured with, and there is no way to attach one. I ended up buying something at a store instead and because of this product will really think twice before ordering something online again, especially for a child's gift. If Amazon wants to maintain any kind of integrity I would really suggest removing this product from your website.

I agree with the first review; this isn't a "real" guitar, but it is load of fun for the toddler who is into guitars. My newphews (5 yrs) got them and were very exicted about them. One point about this toy is that the "bridge" like a traditional one-- it comes out, so watch out if you have an infant who might find it and decide to give it a chew. Also the tuning keys are easy to turn and thus the strings come out easily. We learned all this in the matter of 1/2 hour of opening the toy. Can't say anything about durability or long term problems yet on this. I'll also say they are very good looking. I'd recommend, especially for the price!
