Best Choice Products 41in Beginner Acoustic Guitar Full Size All Wood Cutaway Guitar Starter Set w/Case, Strap, Capo, Strings, Picks - Black

Great, not good... GREAT guitar for the price. I own a few Ibanez & Fender guitars, but this well built acoustic has such a lovely tone/presence that like Bob, I bought a second one the day after the 1st one arrived. Best Choice is my new favorite guitar for playing gigs! Looks, sounds & plays great, and the price is hard to beat.

It didn't just meet my needs, it exceeded them by a wide margin. Not just the guitar itself, which sounds great, but also loved all the extras that came with it.The company itself, Best Choice Products was simply outstanding about how they handle an issue I had with one of the tuning pegs, which was working as it should. I wasn't interested in a return or a refund as I love the guitar, they insisted on shipping me a new one (took 5 days total), and also insisted that there was no need to have to return the original one. Who does that? Best Choice Products does.Outstanding all around.

It's a guitar, and it comes with all the things you need for a guitar, and it's so cheap! I would buy this item again given the price. I could NOT find any other guitars at this price, but I do think people should know some things about it that I did not expect:Namely:1: The tuner does not work well, but its no biggy because you can download the free fender tuner app and set it to acoustic and you are all set.2: The most irritating thing about this guitar is that the high strings kept snapping on me any time I tuned them up, and it turned out that the tuning knobs have very sharp edges on them. You can fix this easily by using your spare low E string as a file to ware them down and round them out a bit.. But i snapped 3 or 4 strings before learning this trick and I was getting seriously frustrated.3: The case came reeking of moth balls . I put it out in the sun for 2 days and it still smells. (Maybe this belongs in seller feedback, not in this product review.)However: I got to pick up a guitar and it plays nicely. I have learned a few songs and it sounds good! It came with replacement strings that I snapped and had to buy more of.. But strings are cheap.The set comes with a nice functioning capo, which you will definitely want to learn beginner tunes and I enjoyed that it comes with a bunch of different thickness picks that I got to try out. I am a total beginner, and other than the string snapping fiasco that really ruined my good time for a while.. I can truly say that I have enjoyed this purchase and would buy this set again despite it's flaws.

I'll start by saying I am in no way an avid musician and I am very "lightly" self taught and just wanted something to learn a few songs on and for that this guitar is perfect. I've had other name brand guitars and while I can tell a difference in sound it is nothing that would bother me. It was very easy to tune, although the tuner that is included I found difficult to use. It did not seem to want to pick up the strings correctly so I did end up using a different tuner. It was great that is comes with a carrying case, picks and a strap. The finish is beautiful and this has been a great guitar to continue learning and improving.

Bought this for my daughter for Christmas. She had never played before but wanted to learn. She absolutely loves it! And I love that it came with everything she needed to get started playing. She said it was the best Christmas present ever!

I wanted something cheap to just pick up and play with while I am saving up for a more expensive and refined guitar that I have my eye on. I like the looks and the cutaway design and the fact that it came with a padded gig bag. The guitar came in flawless condition. I used my Snark tuner to try to tune it and it does have difficulty staying in tune. I will blame that on cheap tuner pegs but what can you expect for $69? I will keep working on that. The sound quality is good and the guitar seems well put together. It is a looker in gloss black and has 2 strap pegs, which is a plus. Now here is the problem: whatever the gig bag is made of, it off gassed an odor that made me quite sick with watery eyes, burning nasel and lung linings, light headedness, and extreme fatigue. I've read about other Asian products use of off gassing glues and I've had issues before. This one is bad. Take the gig bag out of your house and toss it. That is what I had to do. I've ordered another one on Amazon. It does not appear to be an issue with the guitar, just the bag. Time will tell and if it's also the guitar then the heave ho for it.UPDATE: New case, no more chemical odor. It was not the guitar! I am upgrading to Ernie Ball light strings this weekend to improve sound, tuning, and lower the action on the finger board. So far, so good.
