(More customer reviews)My husband hasn't played guitar in about 20 years and wanted an inexpensive electric guitar to start playing again. I chose this one for him.
A lot of the electric guitars in the price range he was willing to spend or have me spend were too small for him to be comfortable using. He wanted something that felt substantial and had good sound. This fit his needs perfectly.
The strings will probably need to be replaced with better quality strings, and the amp will absolutely need to be replaced at some point, but for the price, it's a great starter guitar with a nice sound.
The instructional dvd helped him a lot. Like I said, he's not brand new to playing, but it's been enough years he needed the refresher. It's very step by step, explaining the parts of the guitar and going through the beginning stages step by step in detail. I do recommend getting an inexpensive electronic tuner if you're not sure you can tune by ear.
He's very happy with it, and so am I because step by step upgrades to his equipment mean I don't have to think too hard about future presents for him!
