Still great after 3 years

I guess you could call me a "professional musician" as I get paid to play some small venues, but I enjoy just hanging around a campfire and jamming with friends. I bought this guitar 3 years ago with the mandolin. I wanted to get into the mandolin field and figured why not get a guitar with it for a few extra bucks? I was blown away by it. After 3 years of heavy use as a campfire bandit it is still as awesome as it was when I first played it. It still stays in tune and it can take a beating. I have dropped it a few times and it has gained a few battle scars, but nothing serious enough to need to have repairs done or replace it. If you are looking for a nice guitar for dirt cheap, get this one. When it comes to tone and sound, most of that is on you. You could have a $5,000 guitar and a $10,000 set up and it could still sound like doo-doo if you don't have a strong sense of the guitar. You need to build your own sound/tone. I can play any guitar and still have my personal sound so why spend a bunch of money on a guitar when this one works just as well. *I have been playing guitar for 10+ years and play around 70 shows a year.

Good for a while

I've been playing guitar for 5 years, and I've had this guitar for about 2 years. This is my only acoustic guitar right now due to a lack of funds, and being a more intermediate player, I do need a new guitar. This guitar is great for beginners, extremely durable, sounds good for a beginners guitar, but as you progress it will leave some to be desired. I don't like how it looks, but beauty is in the eye of the beholder I guess. After 2 years, I must say that this guitar has held up very well, and is great for beginners, but as you get better I would suggest buying a new guitar

    I bought this 2 years back and I like the guitar. But due to my finger size, it keeps hitting other strings so it doesn't suit me. There are guitars with wider string spacing so if you have thicker fingers then do consider that. Try out C chord and D chord to test if the sounds of each string is coming as expected.

  • A guitar for sure

    There's a strap button on the bottom. An accessory is needed for the neck - Martin Headstock Tie Guitar Strap Button Brown.
