First Act Discovery FG130 Student Acoustic Guitar Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)After reading the reviews listed here, I felt compelled to write one of my own.I too purchased one of these guitars for my child who showed an interest in the same.I thought this would be a great beginning for her instead of buying one, or renting one for lots of money just to maybe find out later she didn't like it.So far, I have had no trouble with this product, however, I have taught my daughter to handle the guitar with care eventhough it was labeled a "toy".
It's durability could be made a little better, however, it is apparent the instrument was built with affordability in mind.In short, the wood seems very fragile, however it is small and light for children.
As for tuning the guitar, I had it tuned by a professional who had no trouble doing the same, and concurred it was a good start for my daughter without having a lot of investment.He also showed me how to tune it myself so I may also show her, and toavoid the possible risk of her or I snapping the strings.
I believe the hardest part in teaching guitar to a child, is knowing what book to buy!After careful research and discussion with others, I would recommend purchasing First Act's Learn & Play Guitar book & video which is an excellent resource for the very, very beginner.After that, I recommend buying other books as the child progresses at a music store with professional recommendation.
In summary, I feel this product is a good starting point for children and their parents alike, however, please understand eventhough it is labeled a "toy", the guitar still needs to be handled with care, and if tuned too tight, the strings will break as with any guitar.In all, I feel it is a good product for children provided they know how to respect it.I will keep you posted on its'performance.
