    Purchased this for nephew, he went to 2 classes and didn't want to go back. He said that they told him his guitar was terrible and that he should look into renting/buying one of the ones they had on site. I felt so bad that they shamed my nephew in that way, made him feel small. I understand that maybe our guitar wasn't the highest of qualities but he's a kid and within the first 2 classes they're just learning the basics. Hardly anything you'd need to rent/purchase($$$$) a new instrument for. He never went back, and I completely forgot to mention it again=money down the drain
