Pyle Classic Style Junior Scale Guitar (PGACLS30SBD) - 30'' Acoustic, Sunburst Finish, Starter Kit

This junior string guitar seems to be the ideal size for the beginner player who starts out when they are just a kid. My neighbor's kid just started trying to learn and he wants to be a country and western singer so when his birthday popped up, I got this for him. It comes with a case, strings, picks, strap, spare strings, a cleaning cloth, and a gift card. Two months of free online lessons with Fret Zealot. This particular one came with nylon strings but you can get steel strings as well. He told me it was so easy for him to use and his hands are still growing of course but for now, they are just slightly too small for it, and that concerned me but he said that just helps him learn how to adjust and as he gets older and larger, the fact that he practiced with smaller hands now makes it easier for him to adjust as he grows into his size and adjusts. He is a happy kid. The only thing I need now is for his parents to soundproof their garage and his bedroom lol.

Perfect size for my 7 and 8 years kids. The sound quality is excellent.

I picked this up for my niece, who wanted to start learning guitar, and it turned out to be a fantastic choice. The 30-inch size is just right for kids or beginners who aren't quite ready for a full-sized instrument. It's lightweight, easy to hold, and comfortable to play, which makes a big difference when learning the basics. The guitar itself has a classic look with a smooth finish, and the craftsmanship is solid for a beginner instrument. The nylon strings are much gentler on the fingers than steel, so there's no frustration from sore fingertips early on. It even stays in tune surprisingly well after a bit of adjustment. The kit comes with everything needed to start playing—extra strings, picks, a cleaning cloth, and a gig bag for storage. It's nice not having to buy accessories separately, especially for a first-time player. For anyone looking for an affordable, beginner-friendly guitar, this one delivers. It's not a high-end instrument, but for learning, practicing, and getting comfortable with playing, it's a great buy.

I recently purchased the Pyle 30"" Beginner Acoustic Guitar Kit for my 10-year-old, and I'm so impressed with the value it offers, especially for those just starting their guitar journey. This set truly has everything you need to get started, and I couldn't have asked for a better introduction to learning guitar. First off, the 30"" size is perfect for younger players. It's lightweight, easy to handle, and not overwhelming like some full-size guitars can be. The scale length of 19. 7"" is just right for smaller hands, making it comfortable for my child to play. Even as an adult beginner, I find it quite manageable and fun to practice on. The craftsmanship of this guitar really stands out for the price. It's clear that Pyle paid attention to the details—the linden wood body feels solid and durable, while the birch headstock and dyed maple fretboard add to its attractive finish.

Great beginner guitar

Very pleased with this guitar that is very well made. It includes the truss and truss adjustment that stabilizes the neck against the stretch of the guitar strings, so that it holds its tune. It is a musical instrument - not a frustrating toy for a beginning learner. The included tuner works for all of the notes. This was not so for a competitor we purchased and returned since it was poorly made and didn't hold a tune at all!) I ordered replacement strings from a music store, since another reviewer suggested that. But, so far we are happy with the strings that it came with. After buying the cheaper one, I delved further into research for a child's guitar and found this was recommended by a true guitar manufacturer. A big brand name was twice the cost or more, which wasn't reasonable for what may be a passing interest for our grandchild. It is not a small ""parlor"" guitar for an adult, but has the smaller neck and fret length for small child's hands. Very nice tone given the small size. We have not used the online lessons, since we will let our son set that up but that's a nice extra.

Had a similar issue as another reviewer where the neck looked like it was already separating from the body when it arrived. Originally I thought it was just the edge of some adhesive that I was seeing which I guess should have been alarming enough, but now I think maybe it was a crack in the finish all along. I should have returned it when I had the chance. The high E string has some fret buzz at the second fret. Intonation was a little off, but I was expecting worse. G string sounds very dampened. Overall, I would not buy this guitar again given the quality of the one I received.

She Plays It All the time!!!

This is a great gutar to start a child with. It does need tuned after every practice session. It's great for our 5 yr old!

Nice little guitar for my 3 year old grandsons. Well made and looks great. 1/4 size is just perfect for a kid 3-6 years old . . . they can actually reach the strings and full fretboard. They can beat this one up for 2-3 years at this age and then go to the 1/2 size later as they grow.

Do yourself a favor and buy a higher quality one. This was made of poor material and would not hold a tube past the 5th strum

Purchased this so my daughter who is now at that stage where she want to explore/ learn how to play all sorts of instruments. I was concern I won't be able to find a good size that will be easy for her to handle and practice on, but also that is a good quality and has a good acoustics. This is a great balance of comfort and confidence builder and great quality and acoustics to form a great player. The wood is beautifully crafted and also a good quality. Very happy with this and my daughter has been using it daily since she got it.

Bought this for my son and he was very pleased and excited. It is the perfect size for him as a beginner. Worth the price. Has a good sound quality and looks really great. I love the additional accessories that are included with the guitar. Would recommend it

Seems like a really nice kids guitar. I like the design. I think it has a nice looking feel. I was happy with the weight of this - it felt pretty lightweight in my opinion.

Satisfied

Great guitar for kids starting to learn guitar. Nice quality and holds up well to being thrown around by kids. Stays in tune and sounds well. This guitar exceeded all my expectations, and then some. The workmanship is very good. Not one small defect after looking closely at this guitar. It even comes ready to play, with a nice low action. It is small and light, a perfect guitar for camping, etc. Why would you want to pay hundreds of dollars on a guitar or a travel guitar when you can pay a fraction of that and get a sturdy, good sounding instrument that is ready for the road.

Perfect size fot my 5 year old. He absolutely loves it and loves taking lessons with it.

it is just not playable thrown together for 3 dollars it would be ok for the kids 4 yr old BUT other than that you have a lot of nerve indeed.

This little guitar is good quality for a young beginner wanting to explore playing acoustic guitar. I bought for a 6 year old and the size is just right. The nylon strings are easy on beginner hands. They do need to be tuned several times early on before the tune holds. I assume there is an initial stretch and break-in period because after a few days they were fine. The tone of the guitar is warm and good. Any young player will be happy with the sound I think. The price is great for the sound quality.

Makes a perfect gift for littles!
