I'm a guitarist and taught guitar in the past, and wanted something cheap for my 7 year old son to play, knock about, scratch, fall over etc before I finally let him loose on one of my spares. I wasn't expecting much, it was damn cheap, but it actually wasn't bad. I hate classical style guitars, they never stay in tune. This does hold it's tune better than some I've played though. Maybe I'll by some better strings at some point to help the tuning.It's constructed well enough for the the £35 I paid, you're not going to get a rosewood fingerboard here, but it's adequate. How the heck they make guitars for so little these days is beyond me, building guitars is a slow detailed job. If my son does show little or no interest I've not wasted any money. If he takes an interest, then I've subtly inspired him on the sly and I have someone to play music with eventually!The finish by the way is really nice, I like the orange tint to the body.

3.0 out of 5 stars Ok

Bought as a gift for my granddaughter. Don't know anything about them but it seems OK. Has a black pen type mark on the front approx 2 inches long, which I cannot remove. But I can't be bothered returning it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Not just for children!

I am an adult guitarist of six years and purchased this 3/4 guitar purely for comfort and ease of playing as I cannot seem to play on the enormously wide fretboards of full size classical guitars. I gave this five stars because for a mere £35, the quality, action and tone of this guitar are brilliant. It is extremely easy to play barre chords, slide up the fretboard etc, and the vibrato is lovely. When I took it out of the box and felt the guitar and strings I was immediately impressed and excited to play it. Whether you are a child, adult, beginner or advanced guitarist, this guitar is suitable, and I don't have a bad thing to say about it for the price.

1.0 out of 5 stars AVOID!!

DO NOT BUY!! This was bought for a 9-year-old. My husband - who has 30 years experience as a guitar player & teacher said it was the worst guitar he had ever tried to play. It is not possible to play. Doesn't tune, worst fret buzz, very poor quality frets, string action is too low which means there is no room for them to ring out. Extremely poor tonal balance. It Looks nice - which is all well and good, but if it there is no way to get a good sound out it, it has no value as a guitar in any musical sense or as an instrument. It would also be very offputting to people new to guitar, who are learning and who may not realise the awful sound quality is down the guitar and not their inability to play. We have quite a few guitars, most which are quite expensive - since making good quality guitars is an art in itself - however, it Is possible to find a good sounding and inexpensive 3/4-children's guitar. But this is not the one. It's theoretically possible that this was a dud guitar but it's unlikely given that the issues with this guitar are so basic even one of the myriad issues would be caught by a legitimate guitar seller. Avoid.

2.0 out of 5 stars Sub-standard Frets that hardly protrude from the fret board and long action

B.S. · 8 June 2020

Generally nice sounding guitar, but 2 big issues. The action is way too long, I had to file down both nut and saddle. The Frets almost don't exist. It looks more like the rest of the fret board was sanded down a little, leaving some fret-like protrusions between the sanded parts, which were then painted to look like frets or coated with something. They are a fraction of the height of any other fret I have ever seen (including a sponge bob square pants 1/4 size kids guitar), very disappointing. I will never waste money on anything Martin Smith branded again.

5.0 out of 5 stars Well worth the money!

I'm a 32 year old woman, and I've never played the guitar before. I always thought it'd be too hard to get my head around, but I had some Christmas pennies given to me so I decided to take a chance on this one, thinking I could always sell it on if I couldn't get on with it. I love it though! Love it! The nylon strings are gentle enough on fingers that aren't used to playing, and the size is just right for me. He's now a much loved member of the family (well, by me anyway), and he goes by the name of Martin. Also worth adding that it came in good time, well packaged and worth the money!

Colore bellissimo

Il colore brillante e sgargiante è la sua forza. Logicamente è uno strumento per "iniziare" per un primo approccio fa il suo dovere. La grandezza per una bambina di 8 anni è perfetta. Rapporto qualità/prezzo ottimo.

buenas calidad

Good one, except the price.

Great First Geetar.

I bought this guitar for my young grandson. I want him to grow up with music and this was a great first instrument for him. I had it shipped to him and his parents told me that they are impressed with how well made it is, especially for the price. Now is not a Taylor or a Martin, but for now it will get him started. I'm very pleased with this purchase.

Bonne qualité
