Not good, even for a beginner. - Brittany N. Phillips, Oct 01, 2009

I bought this guitar about a month ago, trying to stay cheap until I learned how to play. It makes it impossible to learn. The strings that were attached were old strings, although it does come with a set of new ones if you want to change them. The strings are extremely far from the fret board, which makes it almost impossible for someone who is trying to learn to play it. I pick this one up and struggle holding the strings down and switching between chords, but I pick up my friend's and it is so much easier. It doesn't stay in tune, which is like the worst thing imaginable for a guitar, especially if you are learning and aren't good at tuning. I even have a friend who is amazing at guitar and can tune them easily say that this one is almost impossible to tune correctly.
All in all, unless you are great at guitar and just want a cheap one, then avoid buying this. It would be more worth your money to spend about $50 extra on a somewhat nicer one.

You get what you pay for - J. Salomone, Jul 22, 2009

Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R29GGRSTHJXO7C Terrible. It came in with the e and B string both attached to the same prong, nothing was in tune, and just to prove how bad it was the strap it comes with does not fit this guitar and the top that says "Austin Bazaar" is smudged and it looks like "Austin Baz". Other than that it is not that bad, except for the fact that I broke a string just trying to put it in tune and fixing factory problems. String get over tight to stay in tune and go out of tune rather quickly, but I am sure if I actually pay for good strings (AKA not what it comes with) they would work great. Oh and one more thing one of the prongs that tightens the G string came without a screw. So until I find a screw that fits in there, I am going to have problems putting the G string back in tune. Sorry about the Hum on the video, it is my monitor.

Very poor quality - David D. Liu, Jun 26, 2009

This is a very poor quality guitar, and I am extremely disappointed with my purchase.

Problems:

1) Extremely high action on the strings.
2) Visible crack in the joint between guitar neck and body.
3) Cheap adhesive sticker used to decorate the sound hole prone to peeling.
4) Bridge has significant lifting at rear.

Great Deal - Brian Rhoton, Mar 02, 2009

I looked all over the internet to find a guitar for my wife who is just beginning to learn to play. Most sites had "deals" that were not very good once the shipping was added in. My wife loves it and is excited to play more and more. This was a fantastic price and arrived very quickly.

The guitar is just bad...... - Ana M. Grijalva, Feb 25, 2009

Well the first day i got it i tried to tune it. Anyways apparently the people that had made the guitar had wrapped the strings to many times around the little things. so one of the strings ended up breaking.....i took it to the guitar shop where the fixed it and tuned and but they said that something is wrong with the e string it kept making a weird sound....anyways i wouldn't recommend this guitar its just poorly made and doesn't sound right
