Love the color, but hate the rest of this purchase. Strings have already broken, cannot tune it at all and the case ripped already. My advice, spend a few more dollars and get a higher end guitar for your beginner.

Quality: The paint used on the guitar has pock-marks like it didn’t adhere properly to the wood. The “binding” was carelessly drawn on with a sharpie pen. The frets look like they were retrieved from a junkyard – very uneven. The tuners are cheap but surpringly they don’t rattle and seem to hold the strings well. The 1/2-size Dean Playmate JTJ guitars are also junky, but they are marginally better than this (and they cost less! But my daughter had to have red, so … )

HOW TO GET GOOD SOUND, Tip #1: Do not tune this guitar to standard EADGBE tuning. Intonation is absolutely dreadful – the guitar will be in tune in the middle of the neck but out of tune everywhere else. Follow the hint you will find in the Dean JTJ guitar reviews: tune up a step and a half to G (G C F A# D G) or even A. The guitar will be higher pitched, but surprisingly it will be in tune!

HOW TO GET GOOD SOUND, Tip #2: Adults, when you play this guitar, do not put too much pressure on the strings when you fret them. Use a VERY light touch, just enough to make a clean sound. Press any more than that and you will sharp the notes! Small children shouldn’t have much trouble with this as they will likely have a light touch anyway.

Bottom line: It’s a $40 guitar. What do you expect? If you don’t need red (or metallic, or black), get the Dean JTJ instead. Otherwise, this makes a fun little toy for a very young child (ages 3 to 8 can probably handle it adequately.)
