My son received this guitar as a Christmas gift and he loves it. He is 11 years old and 5 ft, and it is a perfect size for him. It is not too heavy either so he can easily hold it. It comes with a simple storage bag but it is perfect to keep it from getting scratched. It also comes with a strap and a tuner. The strings are durable and well made. It was easy to tune and stays tuned for a while. It is a nice red color and would be great for any beginner. The quality was really shocking and impressive!
