Easy to play, especially for smaller hands. Great sound!
This guitar is a very good purchase. It sounds really good. It is easy for smaller people because it's not so big. It is easy to play comfortably. It's light weight but big sound with the amp that vame with it. I definitely recommend for smaller hands. It is not a child's . But a child could easily get their fingers around it. I love mine!

Consider this a foundation you can make your own
Realistic expectations... that would be my advice. Many of my points have been covered by other reviewers, and quite well I might add! The reality is that it takes a certain amount of cost to have a stable, well-playing instrument. You can pay it up front or you can do it after the fact. Either way it must be done. It is just as important for a budding young shredder to have a good instrument as a professional - if it doesn't play or sound well, they will give up. On to the review...Of all the 3/4 scale guitars, appropriate for both youth and smaller players, and honestly anyone who enjoys short scale guitars (Kurt Cobain, Taylor Swift, Ed Sheeran, Jimi Hendrix, etc. etc.) this is one of the best. I have several, including the Taylor TS, Squire Mini, and this one.The Jackson RR is a handsome guitar, Fundamentally well built. It has shortcomings that can be dealt with and when done it becomes a fantastic guitar. In my estimation the final cost, including the guitar itself and the necessary changes, comes out around $500 or so. Fair price for a good electric guitar.Starting at the top:The tuners are not great. Gotoh are a easy drop in fit for about $55. Replacing the tuners greatly improves tuning stability and who like constantly retuning their instrument?The plastic nut is a toss away. Get the Graph Tech Tusq EX in 1.625 for about $10. This is the one area you may consider having a luthier install. If you have the tools and read up on it you can do it, but the cost will likely be less having a pro do it. Makes a HUGE difference in intonation and tuning stability.I personally like the original 9-42 gauge strings but they require a delicate and careful touch on this short a scale length. The upside is they are super easy to bend. Which is also the downside. They are very easy to accidentally bend out of pitch. For a new player I recommend 10-46. Cost around $8.The pickups are ok. Not fantastic, not bad. Just ok. I swapped mine out for SD Hot Rodded Humbuckers. If you forego the pickup swap the total cost of the finished guitar drops to about $$350 or a little less.The bridge is fine. If you find strings are breaking at the bridge either file any burrs off the saddles or for under $30 replace them with high end saddles. It's an easy swap.After that just do a normal setup (nut, truss, action) and this guitar is a lot of fun, stable, very playable, and a bargain at the $500 or less invested. Why not just buy a $500 guitar? Most are full size, and all 3/4 need some work. Besides, doing it lets you pick exactly what you want and they quality will be better.Would I start my kid on this guitar? Yes - and in fact I did. After the above mentioned corrections.Would I play it as an adult with a decade experience? Heck yeah! I love playing this thing!Would I gig with it? Probably. Especially with the legendary JB bridge pickup I put in it.Honestly I wish they would just increase the price and sell 3/4 guitars that are good out of the box. They are apparently trying to hit a price point, but there's no real savings - the work must be done so ultimately the real cost ends up the same. If you are willing to invest a total of $350-500 you'll be happy and so will a youth. If not, then pass. Out of the box it just isn't fully baked - and neither are the other options from other manufacturers. Specifically I will say this one is much better than the Squire Mini - I ultimately gave up on that one but I tried my best. It was a mess.

Awesome mini guitar!! Just needs a little bit of love
The good: good quality neck and truss rod, Pickups are decent (the bridge screams!). Thin v profile neck.Because I have smaller hands, this scale was spot on for me!The bad: I needed to file down and sand the frets to level them, the bolt on joint is huuge. Don’t see a kid playing solos comfortably with a smaller hand, I couldn’t even grip it right. That back part of the neck I also filed down to be able to get higher fret access. Mine came without the string holders glued so had to take it to a shop (or do it yourself).I love this guitar, just remember it is a starter line guitar. If you want it to play like a pro line guitar: it will need some work!That said: it is my favorite guitar by far. I have a smaller hand so this one is effortless to play. Normal 14.5 scales are great but I find myself stretching uncomfortably on the 1st to 8th frets.

Ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo
La chitarra é buona per la fascia di prezzo in cui si trova, la taglia come scritto in descrizione é mini quindi leggermente più piccola ,comoda e leggera!
