First Act Discovery FG404 Soprano Ukulele

Great ukulele for beginners or if you want to see if you'll like playing the ukulele. If you keep playing the ukulele I strongly suggest getting a better ukulele because its kind of flimsy.

Rogue RM-100A A-Style Mandolin, Sunburst

Childrens Toy Shop > Musical Instruments > Stringed Instruments
from: Rogue


I am new to the mandolin and haven't played any instrument for 30 years so I wouldn't comment on the musical aspects of this mandolin. There are a couple of manufacturing quality defect in the one I purchased. The plating on the tail piece peeled off in the first week. It seemed really thick which is probably what made it start cracking but the copper layer under the nickel is where it delaminated. The other item was that some of the tuning gears are not fully inserted into the headstock. So far neither of these defects has stopped it from functioning.

First Act DiscoveryFG125 Thin Profile Acoustic Guitar

Our son got one of these about 6 months ago, around his 2nd birthday. Now here we are, 6 months later, and this guitar is still serving its purpose - it's a toy.

He's not gentle with it. I've lost count of how many times I've seen him step on the body or the neck. It's still going strong. No broken strings, no quality problems at all.

Guys - if your 10 or 12 year old is taking guitar lessons - buy him a guitar, not a toy that happens to be shaped like a guitar.

Fender Starcaster Strat Pack Electric Guitar with Amp and Accessories - Black

Its just amazingly perfect for playing at home!!

It includes everything. And I mean everything that you might need. Its not even mentioned in the product description that a headset is also included! Which is totally what I needed as I play it for hours and hours and I should not be disturbing others. Amp is cool, its loud enough for home use. It has Bass and Treble effects as well which is very cool. A guitar stand is also included which makes it easy to keep the guitar when not in use.

About the guitar itself, it needed a bit of tuning when I took it out of the box, but that was again very easy with the chromatic tuner provided. After that tuning its just been sounding inch perfect!

Oscar Schmidt OU5 Concert Koa Ukulele

Childrens Toy Shop > Musical Instruments > Stringed Instruments
from: Oscar Schmidt


This was my first ukulele.. actually, it was my first instrument. It was very easy to learn and from there I learned how to play guitar. It is easy to tune and it has a beautiful sound. The aspect I like most about it is the looks of it though - it had a really nice finish and style. I recommend it to anyone who's looking into ukulele's on this site!

I was looking for a guitar for my grandson for Christmas, I bought a blue one for him and a pink one for my granddaughter. The guitars seemed great to begin learning, they were of good quality and they loved the bag and accessories.

First Act Discovery FALPG1 Learn & Play Guitar Book and CD

I was so disappointed in the fact that the guitar didn't come with any picks or a strap- I didn't realize it when ordering, or I would have ordered that, too. My son had trouble holding it without the strap... when I finally got around to buying those items, I showed the guitar to my brother, who has been playing for 30 years, and he said it didn't stay tuned. once you play a chord, it goes out of tune. I'm not thrilled, to say the least.

First Act VE591 Single Cutaway Electric Guitar with V-Stack Preamp

The first review here is a little cofusing so I'll try to clarify with my experience. I purchased this guitar through amazon with free shipping and could not be happier. Neck is well done, no issues whatsoever with quality control. Built in boost/OD is great for what it is inteded for. This guitar is made to be a great portable guitar you can plug into your car or computer stereo, or regular amp. The pickups are just fine and you can get some nice sounds from the effect/boosts.
This is not a $2000 Gibson or anything, but truth be told it's put together well, holds tuning, sounds great, feels great, and it's worth $400. I and my son who plays pick this one up often and noodle around.
The Gig bag it comes with fits like a glove and works well. It's ... Read More:
