5 out of 5 stars From a Beginner's Point of View.   July 6, 2007

I bought my Kona guitar two weeks ago, after researching the company on the web.

It's just the right size for me, and stays in tune pretty well - very little adjustment on the keys.

I like the digital tuner that's included in the kit. It's much easier than using a pitch pipe.

I would suggest getting a hard case, though. The gig bag isn't padded.

I just recieved this product, but honestly, I can tell it's a very good kit already. It wasn't what I was expecting but it serves it's purpose. I was contemplating buying the Austin Bazaar 38" Black Cutaway Guitar with Carrying Bag and Accessories for only $40 but after reading the negative reviews, I decided against it. Plus, it's obvious they just want to get rid of them and make quick cash instead of actually selling a quality product. I mean, I'd rather pay a little more (I paid $94 on Amazon) for a QUALITY guitar than 40 dollars for something that will fall apart in a few weeks. The guitar itself is VERY nice - very good quality, beautiful wood and professional looking. It's obvious Kona knows guitars. The only downside is that it doesn't come with extra strings, a stand or a strap, but really that's not going to cost more than $20 to buy. Plus, the book is great - funny, simple and the pictures are very helpful, and the CD helps too. So take your pick - if your really serious about playing, than pay a little more for a quality product.

I am the target audience for this set: I don't know anything about playing the guitar, but would like to learn. I've had this for a few days and am entirely happy with it. The guitar - well, I have nothing to compare it with, but it's physically attractive, feels good in my hands, and makes a lovely sound when I twang a string. I don't know enough about guitars to be a fair judge, but there's nothing obvious about it to make it inferior to the guitars of my friends who play, and in fact I like it better than some I've seen. The book and CD are simple enough for me to follow, and the digital tuner is simple to use. I've successfully tuned the guitar and learned how to play an E chord, so I'm feeling satisfied and accomplished. Everything arrived in excellent condition and ready to use, and I didn't have to go buy anything else in order to get started.

Traditionally a 5th anniversay gift is wood so I decided to get my husband a guitar starter kit nothing too fancy and I'm glad I chose Guitar for Dummies. It was a hit! The product was delivered in one piece, on time, and without any issues. This is a great starter guitar for my husband and he plays it everyday. Looks like my gift won this year =).

I've been a fan of the Dummies book series but was a little hessitant about this product. After careful review, and the price was nice, I made the purchase. Having never played the guitar before, with the help of the included book and cd, I am now in the process of teaching myself and it is going great thus far. I feel that the quality of the guitar is superb, I've even compared it to Fender. You get more for your money with this pack, and it's perfect for anyone including the professional player.
