Carry-on Mini Acoustic Guitar, 3/4 Size, Travel, Education, Steel String, Natural

Got this for my 13 year old niece who’s just starting to get into music and it’s been absolutely spot on. The size is ideal for her, not too heavy or bulky but still feels like a proper guitar, not a toy. She took to it straight away, and the tone it produces is actually really nice for something this compact. It’s light enough for her to carry around to lessons and the neck has a lovely smooth feel that makes learning chords a bit less frustrating.Build quality surprised me to be honest. The spruce top looks smart and the mahogany body gives it a bit of warmth in the sound. Feels sturdy enough to last through daily use and a few inevitable knocks here and there. She's been practising regularly without needing much encouragement which says a lot. Cracking choice for travel or small spaces too. If you’re looking for something for a young learner or even just a decent little travel guitar, this one’s well worth a look.5 out of 5.

The Amazon ratings system is brutal. Read this review as 4.4 stars!This 3/4 guitar, branded 'Carry On', is of a size also referred to as a 'carry on' guitar. It is designed for easy transportation (e.g., to be carried on to a commercial aeroplane). 3/4 might sound not too far short of full size, but the reality is a considerably smaller and lighter instrument. This inevitably means less wood and smaller volume in the body. For an electric instrument, that's less of an issue, but it does mean for an acoustic instrument, like this, you get far less resonance in the sound. This is not a reduction in volume but in sound quality. The music is less 'full'. That's not a problem of this specific guitar, but a constraint in the size.This guitar seems nicely made and the materials seem good quality, helping to reduce the loss of fullness in the sound a little bit. The fret board is well defined - the frets standing proud for a good acoustic feel and the fingering feels decent. In short, I rather like playing it!The fret is, as you can see on the image, marked as a normal guitar - and do note that this includes the side marks usually found on full size instruments, making navigation of the fret board easier.The guitar arrived well packaged and fully-strung (with the strings nice and loose so they're not damaged by temperature change etc). I found initial tuning a little trickier than with my larger guitars, with the tuning pegs seeming to strain to get the strings tight enough. It felt as if they would easily de-tune once in place. They do de-tune a little more quickly than my other guitars, but not ridiculously so. I'm rather impressed, in truth. The stresses the strings put on the body of the instrument seem well handled - so far, at least!There are far more expensive guitars of this size out and about, and there are cheaper. For £130 at time of writing, it would have been nice for a strap to be included (there is a strap button, which is great to see), but that's a very minor thing, really. After all, many people wanting to buy this would already have their own favourite peripherals!So, in my opinion, a pretty good instrument for the price. Drop the price maybe 10% and it would be 5 stars.

This lightweight acoustic guitar is of excellent quality. It is well-built, featuring a smooth wooden body that exudes a sleek, classic appearance. Despite its compact size, the steel-string produces a rich and bright tone, making it ideal for a young learner. My daughter loves it, and it’s so easy for her to carry it anywhere. The guitar strikes a perfect balance between portability and full-bodied sound. At £131.12, it may not be the cheapest option, but its quality justifies the price.

I got this 3/4 size acoustic guitar for my 9 year old daughter, who’s a massive Taylor Swift fan and dreams of playing like her idol. It’s the perfect size for little beginners - lightweight, easy to hold, and doesn’t take up much space. The build quality is impressive, with a smooth wooden body and spruce top that gives it a lovely, rich tone. It’s surprisingly loud (in a good way!) and stays in tune well, which is great because she’s constantly practicing. It’s not the cheapest option out there, but you can tell it’s functional and made to last. It’s been fantastic and we’re planning to start lessons soon which she’s really excited about.

This is a quality, solid guitar that sounds great and is perfect for a learner. I picked it up for our teenager nephew who is obsessed with instruments and learning new things, and he's enjoyed every minute of using this. It's a good size for him, too.Definitely on the more expensive side but I do feel like it's worth the cost.Recommended.

This compact and lightweight mini acoustic guitar is perfect for those on the go.

This mini acoustic guitar is well made, with a smooth, polished finish certainly looks the part. It has a mahogany body and spruce top. The sound is good, with good balance, excellent tones and is compact, make it very portable. I found the guitar to be quite loud, in a good way, and it stays in tune. No case is included, so I will need to purchase one.This guitar is great for adults or kids alike, is a quality offering, sounds and performs very well. At just under £130 this is not cheap, but does what it supposed to…very well.
