"Good for beginning youngster, but nothing else."

Feature:
Not really a "feature" laden product. Comes with a gig bag.

Quality:
Guitar is holding together great despite being subjected to kids untender-loving-care. Straight neck but lousy intonation.

Value:
Paid $90 a few years ago. A fair price.

Desirability:
Kids love it. No adult would feel compelled to own it.

Sound:
You don't purchase this guitar for the sound, so this low score isn't meant to be a knock on it. It's bearable, that's about it.

Ease of Use:
High rating here because of the playability. Neck & action is great. 3/4 size makes it easy to play for the kids. BUT, that doesn't mean you get great sounds -- the intonation isn't good. But beginners wouldn't notice, so we'll give it a good rating here...

Support:
Haven't sought any service on it.

Overall:
Wish the sound was better, wish the intonation was better, but does the job for a kids starter guitar.

"GOOD LITTLE CHEAP GUITAR FOR BEGINNER AS IT BITES YOUR FINGER TIPS"

Feature:
standard setup BUT it works OK

Quality:
Wood is cheap, colour looks awful... SCALE TOO NARROW

Value:
VERY NORMAL price and I cannot say that it is a big bargain

Sound:
IT sounds a bit tinny and the action is not quite smooth.

Support:
NO idea, I would not bother them
