Music Alley MA-52 30 Inch Junior Classical Guitar for Kids, Blue

If you are looking for a first instrument to introduce a child to music, this Guitar is an absolute standout choice. For the very reasonable price tag, the overall build quality is surprisingly impressive. It feels sturdy and well-crafted, easily handling the occasional bump that comes with being handled by a child. The guitar is proportioned perfectly for younger children. My 7-year-old daughter plays it comfortably, and the nylon strings are much gentler on beginner fingertips than steel-string alternatives. Out of the box, it’s lightweight, easy to tune, and comes bundled with access to online lessons. This has been a fantastic bonus for keeping her engaged with both home practice and school music activities. She is completely in love with it! If you want a budget-friendly starter guitar that doesn't feel cheap, this is well worth every penny.

Brought this because my 5 year daughter was pestering me to have a go on my guitar (which was a present from a relative, therefore too sentimental to be broken). I didn't want to buy a tiny plastic guitar which can't be tuned but at the same time wanted something good enough that if my children did want to take up guitar it was there for a potential chord learning. The quality of the guitar seems good to me for the price, obviously not professional standards, I think one of the low strings twangs a bit, doesn't bother me. It's a nice solid wood, fully varnished, strings have enough tension to be tuned properly and the fret-board/neck is about the right size for a 5 year old's fingers in my opinion. I saw a review on here whereby the bridge completely unstuck after it had been "professionally tuned". We didn't have any problems, had it over two months now. I tuned it myself, and just very gently pulled on the nylon strings upward when tuning it for the first time to give them a little bit of flexibility (don't do this on steel string guitars by the way). It naturally de-tuned itself in the first couple of days, this is normal for new strings, after that it's been fine. I just re-iterate to my 5 and 3 year olds to just respect the guitar, i.e. not leave it on the floor, put it in the corner when you're not using it etc. etc., normal with children, and a nice learning experience on how to treat instruments. I've found myself picking it up and have a few practice runs myself as it's in the living room to hand! Cheap price and a reasonable quality considering the price. Design is generic enough to out live a child's fast changing trends and tastes, so should do until they leave primary school and then until they want to get serious with guitar playing. Excellent and would recommend.

I bought this for €33 for my 3 year old who has started showing an interest in my guitars. For that purpose I think it's actually very good value for money. The seller describes it as not being a toy and while I would agree that it's a step above a toy guitar I wouldn't consider it a proper musical instrument either. I think it sits somewhere in between and at this price that's perfectly reasonable. For a 3 year old who wants to strum along and get used to holding and handling a guitar it's a great option. I'd much rather give a young child something like this than spend considerably more on a proper small guitar before knowing whether the interest will last. There are some compromises in the construction. The frets aren't separate metal frets embedded into the fingerboard as you would find on a proper guitar. They seem to be moulded as part of the fingerboard with a gold paint coating. I would therefore expect them to wear down considerably faster from contact with the strings. There are also some small imperfections in the finish of the fingerboard/neck on mine, which can be seen in the photos. The string action is relatively high but okay. None of this particularly bothers me given the price and what I bought it for. However, I would not recommend this to someone looking for a cheap travel guitar or as an instrument for a child who is going to start formal guitar lessons. In either of those cases, I would spend more and buy a proper instrument with conventional frets and better construction (like a Stagg or Ibanez, they go for about €100 to €150) For a very young child who is interested in guitars and whose parents aren't ready to spend the money on a proper instrument yet I think it's a great option. The tuning is surprisingly stable for the price. As with any new set of strings they need some time to stretch and settle but after that it holds its tuning reasonably well (some of the negative reviews I suspect did not give sufficient time for the strings to settle). Good value for its intended purpose provided you know what you're buying. 4 stars from me just due to the fingerboard and neck imperfections.

Bought one for my 8yo nephew to learn on and got jealous instantly so i got one for myself, absolute vibe machine. It is £30 and not even close to being high end - quality or play wise - but it has heart. You can get a beautiful sound off of it with open chords or double stops. Excellent to just noodle with too. I love it so much that I think that you should get one too. ✌️🤟🤌🤟👌🤘

I purchased this guitar for my granddaughter birthday she loved it reasonable price great product

My Great Granddaughter was delighted with this guitar and hopefully will be able to play it in the near future. Very well made and running was no problem.

The guitar is fine for my 6 year old who is showing interest in music. We are pleased enough with it functionality. The issue is it came with a purple mark on the back. I sent the first one back and got a replacement, which weirdly had the exact same mark. I tried to contact the seller bit couldn't. So amazon customer services gave me a modest discount. Not completely satisfied but the best I'm going to get.

Takes long time (days) to properly tune but it's good for what it costs.

Helt ok för barn men inget för någon som skulle vilja spela på riktigt. Det är en leksak helt enkelt. Den var hel när den kom och så skickade de med en del roliga prylar till gitarren. Inget fel på kvaliten, över förväntans bra med tanke på priset.

Perfekt für die Kinder, super Qualität! Empfhelung!

For beginin good
