A Great Value for a Solid Instrument
 
Review Date: July 7, 2008
Reviewer: Ben Crosby, Vermont
I've been trying to seriously begin playing the guitar for a while, and I bought this one in hopes that spending money on an electric would motivate me more than just using the acoustic that I never had a rapport with. I bought this Silvertone as a starter kit, just looking for something solid and inexpensive. I settled on this one because most of the other guitars in the price range were Austin Bazaar, and Austin Bazaar seems to make very low-quality starter kits in hopes that people who don't know better will buy them.

This guitar has done exactly what I wanted, I can't stop playing it. It comes with everything you need as a beginner--it's already stringed (with light gauge strings, which are good to start with), has a spare set of them as well, picks, amp, tuner, and cable. The only thing you could possibly want added would be a distortion pedal, but a beginner has bigger things to worry about.

I have had no problems at all with the guitar. It is solid and well-built, very satisfying to play. This is probably the best deal you can find on a starter kit.
Great set up

I purchased this for my son, who is 10. He has an acoustic guitar, but wanted to move on to the electric. I had looked at the Fender guitars that were being offered as a kit. The price tag was a tad bit too high for me (we bought this on sale for $100).

Shipping was fast, the product came in a brown box, well packaged. The tuner is junk. We had to do some adjustments right out of the box, but not really a big deal. The high E strings continually were breaking, so we upgraded to Ernie Ball Super Slinky strings and we have not had a problem since. The sound is nice. The amp is a perfect size for having in a home (it is still too loud for me sometimes).

This is a great guitar package for a kid. He can ding it, drop it and do whatever and as a parent feel better knowing that I didn't shell out 200+.
Excellent Beginner Package

A present for my 17-year old for Christmas. No-one wants to spend a lot on something soon forgotten so this guitar kit is perfect. Affordable enough that you can afford to upgrade once it's outgrown. It comes with everything needed to get started and is better quality than a lot of the beginner guitars I saw in stores. The amp has more power than other kits and the electronic tuner is a plus. We had no problem getting the guitar tuned properly - it stays in tune just fine - any new guitar has to 'settle in'. My son plays it every day, which has inspired several of his friends to get their own guitars and learn to play.
Note: The amp cable had a short but Amazon took care of it promptly.
Great value, great sound.

Silvertone guitar and amp played great AND the amp has a headphone jack as well as an input to play along with my iPod. Very cool feature!

I bought this for my adult daughter who wanted to learn to play the guitar. This is perfect for anyone who doesn't want to pay alot for a beginner learning to play, but wants to have the real experience of learning to play the guitar. It is good quality and has descent sound. The kit comes with everyting you'll need to get started. Highly recommended.
