This was a gift for my son and I thought it sounded good, though it was a bit hard to tell from the online images what it would look and feel like. We are impressed on both counts. It's a nice set, with everything you need for basic lessons and protection of the instrument, and my son is really enjoying it.

My son loved it. Bought it for Christmas and it was all it said in the ad.

I ordered this for my 17 year old son for Christmas last year and he loved it. The software helps with tuning the guitar and had him playing his first song in no time. I paid $99.00, and feel like this has been a good beginners guitar for him to learn to play on.

This was the perfect collection of necessities that accompanied this guitar. It was received in a great timely fashion. I loved it and was happy with the sound and quality of it.

I had wanted to learn to play the guitar after many failed attempts over the years. This came up as a gold box deal, so I thought what the heck and ordered it, as I had seen many positive reviews of the eMedia software. I received the package and it was *very* light. I opened it up and laughed as it looked like a kids toy. I decided that I better not waste my money and returned this kit and to go ahead and invest in a decent starter instrument (I bought a Seagull Coastline S6 Burst GT Guitar). I may go ahead and buy the standalone eMedia Guitar Method disc, but for now, I'm doing fine with the free lessons [...]

I just got this today, and it looked great, until I realized that there were missing items. I didn't receive most of what I paid for!! I DID NOT RECEIVE:
The extra set of strings,
The guitar strap,
The pick,
The CD-ROM,
OR the DVD!!
This is very disappointing and I would either like to return this for a FULL refund, or it would be nice to get these items now that I have the guitar and bag.

After reading the first review, I bought this for a 7 year old. It was so cheaply made that I was embarassed to give it even to a child. If I don't give it to a neighbor, I likely will throw it away. I couldn't even tune it to where it sounded tolerable. I went out the next day and purchased another guitar to give as a gift. If you want to learn to play guitar, the instrument must have a minimal level of quality. Purchase this if sound and quality are unimportant and you'Emedia Eg07091 Essential Guitar Packre only looking for piece of painted wood with 6 adjustable strings.

I ordered this to give as a gift. Prime shipping was fast and great as usual, but the box was a single layer of cardboard and the item arrived damaged. So I asked for an exchange. That came overnight (yay Prime!), but sadly the 2 guitar was cracked. They really need to use some kind of padding with this item.

We returned both of the broken ones. Overall the quality of the guitar was very poor along with the damage in shipping. I don't recommend this at all.

Received this guitar right after Christmas, it was so poorly packed that when I opened the box, the top cover of the guitar was completely detached. There was no protection in the packaging what so ever.

Upon further investigation, I also noticed that it was all nylon strings. Basically it a kiddy guitar to be bought to mess around on, not to actually learn or play. I would avoid purchasing at all costs. There are much better First time or learner guitars out there. I know Targets First Act series are way better than this option.
