Best Choice Products 38in Beginner All Wood Acoustic Guitar Starter Kit w/Gig Bag, 6 Picks, Nylon Strings, Strap w/Pick Holder - Black

We were pleasantly surprised. This is actually a quality guitar. We purchased this 4 yrs ago for our son and it has held up very well and though he has advanced to better quality guitars, this is still his personal favorite. The tuner is not exactly precise. The overall set looks great and feels good to handle and play. It’s a pretty fun kit for a beginner.

The package typically includes the guitar, a gig bag, an extra set of strings, a pick, a strap, and an instruction booklet or online resources. This makes it convenient for beginners to get started right away without needing to purchase additional accessories separately. The Best Choice Products 38-Inch Beginner All-Wood Acoustic Guitar Starter Kit is a solid entry-level option for those just starting out. It provides a comprehensive package at a reasonable price, with the understanding that it may not be the most durable or highest quality instrument available. It’s a great way to dip your toes into playing the guitar without a significant financial commitment, but be prepared for potential tweaks and adjustments as you grow in your musical journey.

Here is what you need to know about me before you read the rest of my review: I am a pretty musical person. I play keyboards and ukulele, and decided that I would like to venture into the challenge of learning guitar. Also, you should know that I am visually impaired. I can see, but not very well at all. Kind of like Mr. Magoo.Here is everything that came in the box and what I think of it:1. The Guitar: Beautiful color. I thought it was going to be a lighter blue color, but mine kind of looks purple, which is nice because that's my favorite color. I'm not sure if this was intentional or a mix-up at the factory, but I am content. There were a few dings in the finish, but that's OK with me. I'm not taking it out in public for performances any time soon.2. The "gig bag:" I like the straps on the gig bag. You wear it like a backpack, which is handy, actually. Also, it has a pocket on the front where you can keep your extra strings, your tuner, and your picks, if you want. It's kinda cheaply made, but hey, I only paid $14.95 or something like that. I'm not complaining in the slightest.3. Tuner: I was a little concerned when I saw that it would come with a tuner. I thought that it would be a visual display to help you tune the string. I was pleasantly surprised to find that the tuner in question was actually a pitch pipe, with six different pitches to blow, one for each string. Love that part of the deal! Wish I had one of these for my ukulele, but I'm not complaining.Strings: Ah, yes, well, here is the one flaw in this otherwise acceptable arrangement. I was tuning the G string when it snapped. The pitch was still too low, but the string just snapped. So I thought to myself, "OK, no big deal, I have a spare." Upone replacing that string and attempting to tune it, the replacement string snapped as well. I have since ordered a new set of strings, so that I'll just replace them all so I know what I'm dealing with. I only knew that the strings were steel and I didn't know the gage or anything else about them, so I'm just going to replace them all and then I'll know what I have next time one breaks.My overall opinion of this product is that it is a good guitar to start with, to learn on. It doesn't have to be perfect if you are just learning in the comfort of your own home or in the company of an instructor who isnt' going to look down on you or anything like that. If you are going to buy this product, I do highly reccommend that you buy a new set of strings, since there is no way to be sure what strings are already on the guitar. Thankfully, strings, even steel ones, can be pretty cheap. I got mine for $3. I also bought some extra picks, but that's nothing to do with the one that came with the guitar. Oh yeah, did I mention the kit only comes with one pick? You might also want to buy some extra picks just in case. I got a 12 pack of blue ones for $5 or thereabouts. But this is a good product, and it shipped out really fast, even with only standard shipping. I was happy about that.Happy playing!

I bought this guitar for my 10 year old neice and she loves it. It is small and easy for her to use and is fun to play. She is learning quickly and it stays in tune after hours of practice. It is sturdy with a smooth finish and looks great. If you are looking for a great beginner guitar , this is it.

I never review stuff on here because I mostly don't care to. The products all came exactly as shown (The tuning device is smaller than it appears). I'm only reviewing this because as a beginner getting back into practicing guitar again, this guitar is made cheap. Not to knock the company or product in any way.A few things:1. thinner strings are plastic, which is weird because typically all the strings are metal.2. The tuning device is smaller than it looks and fits in your palm. Doesn't work well at all, so I had to use one online.3. The guitar strap is average. Kind of flimsy. I personally don't like wearing a guitar strap anyway, so for me it's irrelevant. For others, it's good to know.4. The guitar case is plastic, made cheap, and only opens at the bottom, so it's kind of hard to put the guitar in it unless you lay it on the ground and then put the guitar in.5. Update: after using this guitar a few times, I found out strings 4-6 are all E-strings when they shouldn't be. Found this out quick because they sounded the same and didn't go from low to high pitch when you strum each string. Not sure who the creator of this guitar is, but my review is going to a 3 because of this. I'm a beginner so now I have to figure out how to replace the strings so they're the right strings. Failure on the manufacturers part.Again, not to knock the company. I just want people to be aware of how this product is. Overall, I would say it's great for beginners and I don't plan on returning it for that reason. Otherwise, if you've been playing for a while and want a second guitar or something different, I wouldn't recommend this.
