I picked this out for my Grandson's First Guitar and I think its wonderful!
It was exactly what was advertised and the price was low.
Easy to set up and fun to use.
The sound is nice and different than a guitar. My son loves it!!!
I knew it would be cheaply made from the price. Didn't know it was cardboard and stickers.
Plays great, even for beginners. Sounds beautiful and is easy to learn. The given A string is hard to tune so I'd suggest switching it if you have trouble. Also it's a CD not a DVD as identified in the description. An mp3 download would be better. Overall a great gift for anyone that wants to learn the slide guitar.
i can not believe people wrote good reviews on junk like this. this is without a doubt the worst guitar of any kind that i have ever touched. i have had more than one cbg and they were fantastic but not this pile of stinking crap. if you are used to stuff that can be played do not buy this. not even good for parts. also frets would have been great so you have options.
the laminate started peeling off.
the strings won't tighten
Strings r brittle broke tuning it… not a great buy
