We got this for my daughter, but I've been playing it quite a bit. Nice sound. Love being able to span twice the number of frets due to reduced length. One reviewer said the sound degrades. Not sure how it could degrade. Maybe time for new strings? Had this over a year, sounds fine. Was at the store recently to try a few full size guitars in $600-1000 range and many sounded dead in comparison to this one IMO.

I bought this for my young daughter, who was upgrading from a 1/4 size guitar. For about $125, it's great value for money. It does the job required of it, namely allowing a young person to develop playing skill. The quality is really decent overall, and yes, the tuners are not that smooth and they're kind of sticky, but you can still tune up OK. I can't think of a better $125 1/3 size guitar. If you break it, you won't feel too bad because the price isn't high, but you may feel bad if L & M doesn't have one in stock to replace it.

I just bought this 1/2 size guitar today for my young daughter, who's upgrading from a 1/4 size guitar. For the money, it's quite good value. It's actually playable, no less. The tone is bright and sharp, as it's not a super resonant cedar top, but a laminated spruce top. The finish is gloss, and it too is not bad at all. The tuners are the worst part, they are not smooth and silky, but rough and gruff. I put a drop of oil on each tuner and it's still rough and gruff, but at least it does the job of tuning. The included gig bag is all fabric, and no padding, so it covers the guitar but won't protect it. All in all, it's a nice intro guitat to the new performer. The sound won't wow you into wanting to play it, but it does the job. Oh yes, while the nut width is shorter than adult size (I think it's something like 48 mm - I forget now), the E to E distance at the bridge is very nice at about 56mm, so you get adult-guitar string spacing at the sound hole and therefore there's full room to pluck the string. This bridge string spacing is the best thing about the guitar. There were two cosmetic flaws in my sample, a rash line across the bottom area of the guitar (probably from shipping) and the fretboard near the nut was missing some finish paint (it looks shiny, not matte). In summary, you get a playable guitar with a nice return policy for an affordable price.

If you just need a cheap beginner or temporary classical guitar, its great. That said, you really do get what you pay for. The sound quality degrades very quickly. After 6 - 8 months, you may want to consider an upgrade or replacement. If you are just learning, or you need something quick and cheap to noodle around with temporarily, this guitar is an excellent choice.

Performance Warranty Banner

Protect your investment with the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty

A warranty can be a very important factor when making a buying decision. Because repairs can be very expensive in terms of parts and labour costs, manufacturers usually only provide one year limited warranties that generally only cover items that malfunction due to a manufacturer’s defect. With an important purchase such as a musical
instrument or piece of studio gear, however, many people want to have the peace of mind in knowing that their investment will be protected should the product no longer be performing at 100%.

Because of this, Long & McQuade provides our customers with a FREE one-year Performance Warranty on most of our products. The Long & McQuade Performance Warranty supplements the manufacturer’s warranty to ensure that our customers receive complete “no hassle” warranty coverage within their first year.

How does the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty differ from most manufacturers' warranties?
  • Performance Guarantee: Normal wear and tear is covered, so your product will be performing as well as the day you purchased it for the entire duration of the coverage. Band and Orchestral Performance Warranty does not include replacing pads or cleaning for woodwind instruments, unless deemed necessary by our repair staff. Ultrasonic cleaning for brass instruments will be provided if deemed necessary by our repair staff, but is not routinely offered under the Performance Warranty.
  • Product Replacement: If your product cannot be fixed or costs too much to fix, we will replace it with the equivalent model for no additional charge. If this is not possible, a full refund will be provided.
  • No Lemon Policy: Your product will be replaced should the same problem occur multiple times.
  • Convenient: Easy drop off and pick up of the product at any Long & McQuade location.
  • Guitar Setup: Guitars purchased at Long & McQuade come with 1 free setup, to be redeemed within 1 year for new guitars and 90 days for used guitars.
  • Loaners Available: A loaner product may be given while the product is being repaired.
  • Power Surge Protection: Your product is covered even if damaged from a power surge.
  • Accessory Coverage: Any peripheral devices or accessories that come with your product (i.e. foot pedal, case) are also covered.
  • Commercial Use Coverage: Music and recording professionals who purchase gear for “heavy-use” commercial purposes will still be covered.
 

Long & McQuade reserves the right to restrict the purchase of additional years of Performance Warranty. Used products come with a 3-month Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Some products (i.e. computers, software, cymbals and other items) are covered only by the manufacturer‘s warranty. Consumables (i.e. strings, reeds, drum sticks, batteries, tubes, cross faders) are excluded as they are designed to be replaced. Cosmetic Damage, Accidental Damage, or problems caused by Humidity or Temperature Issues are not covered. Speakers damaged by overpowering are generally not covered. Our coverage does not provide compensation for loss of use. As of June 2018 the Performance Warranty is no longer transferable. The warranty is only valid in Canada.

Purchasing additional years of coverage

Some manufacturers provide warranties for longer than 1 year; however, these are usually limited warranties that do not provide the same coverage as the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Customers interested in more complete and convenient (but not necessarily longer) coverage are still able to purchase additional years of the Performance Warranty.

If you are interested in receiving this coverage for longer than one year, you have the option of purchasing additional years of the Performance Warranty. The pricing is as follows:

  • NEW products: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
  • USED products: 4% of the current new selling price to increase the warranty from 3 months to 1 year. 4% for each additional year.
  • GUITARS: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year. $45 maximum. An additional free setup is not included with additional purchased years of Performance Warranty.
  • BAND and ORCHESTRAL instruments: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
