The instrument looks a bit of disproportionate because neck and body are reduced in size, while the web and the head with the mechanisms are the same as for an adult guitar. The neck is not only shorter than normal, but also much narrower. Little hands is it possible thus to embrace him. The strings are in this guitar but also closer together than other guitars in 1/2-size.
Because the distance between the bridge and the nut is shorter than a 4/4 guitar string tension is much less necessary, to bring the strings on the guitar typical moods. This affects both very positive effect on the playability of (the strings can also be less strong hands easily grab), on the other hand a negative effect on the sound and the volume of sound.
Sonically it has consequently so do not expect much, you can just tell his offspring: Wait until you're a bit bigger, then sounds your guitar better. In fact, sound guitars simply because of their size better and louder. Most likely, the small beginner but do not complain about the sound. The only very small producible with this instrument volume protects the ears of the people in the environment of the practitioners, but has a negative effect in audition.
The individual sounds can be access not only easy, they sound mostly quite correct. Intervals and not even chords sound, especially in the higher elevations, unclean. But that does not matter, as set harmonious feeling in children until about 8 years and a child before it plays the first chords difficult, long 1/2-size has outgrown.
Judging by the expected "service life" of such a guitar makes it useless if there are here and there slight manufacturing defects in the form of dirty paint and that the woods used are not exactly high quality.
The plywood spruce top warms the tone and protects the instrument from being too quick to go to break.
In order to protect it even more before, you should make it clear to the user and in any case, that this is not a toy here. Toy guitars have four strings, are unstimmbar and can not be intone correctly. That one should consider when buying.
In addition, a child will not come by itself on how a guitar should be kept and played, so I absolutely recommend a teacher and can get over it if included is nothing but the guitar.
Blutjunge beginners will certainly have in this highly visual tool in a beautiful coloring their joy.
