My second guitar from Donner and I'm just as happy with my experience as my first guitar. Item is very well made and the accessories are just cherry on top of a very complete package.

Bought this as a gift and she was very happy. It shipped fast and there were no issues. I was surprised by the mini amp. Better sound than I expected for playing at home. Overall very happy and great value for the money.

This guitar is a great choice for anyone looking for a beginning guitar. The amp is small but does the job. Comes with a good quality guitar cord. Also comes with a nice amount of good quality accessories. Overall a great guitar package.

Product came faster than expected, the pack literally has everything you need to get started. Whether you're a complete beginner or an advanced player; it won't disappoint you.
Guitar came perfectly wrapped and protected, the sound is surprisingly similar to Stratocaster's. Also why not: it's a beautiful guitar.
The amp is better than expected, has some nice features to play with the sound.
The accessories are really useful: the guitar strap is comfortable to wear, the tuner (includes battery) works also for bass and it's easy to use and the picks are really nice. I haven't used the other accessories much but I can confirm they're high quality as well.
I wouldn't think twice, this is a great purchase!

The amp is better than expected (for an apartment or condo). It would not be enough to play with a real band. The fact that it charges, and can be carried around is a bonus.
The amp out the box seemed small and cheap... but works very well. Same with the capo.
GREAT BUY
SUPER IMPRESSED

The body of this guitar has lots of potential for artwork! It's not those plastic covering, but varnish. Easy to remove!
This guitar has a great well-constructed neck! Fretwork is awesome! The electronics are OK! But lots of room for
upgrading also! The sky is the limit with imagination! Donner? You"ve did it again! Giving people the chance to experiment with music and bring joy to this world! For the price? I think it's a great deal!!
I AM VERY HAPPY WITH THIS GUITAR KIT! STARTING IN MUSIC SHOULD BE WITH A DONNER PRODUCT!
YOU WON'T GO WRONG!

I have no problem recommending this guitar to anyone. . beginner or not. The guitar is beautiful, Donner took great care producing it, and packing it up for shipping. The value here, with the included amplifier and accessories makes this package hard to beat. I spent maybe an hour setting the guitar up.. adjusting the action and intonation. . and everything works perfectly. The amplifier was the biggest surprise. . That tiny amp works and sounds great. I'm no beginner, been playing for a lot of years. . but not much experience with electric. This guitar is a great entry into electrics and for its price with all the accessories included it's a 5 star from me!

This is a really good guitar package for a very fair price. It is better quality to other guitar packs I have tried. The guitar is nicely finished and plays well. The accessories are also a cut above entry level The guitar arrived well set up and sounds very "Stratty" so full marks there. There is no stand included (If you're getting a comprehensive package a stand would be nice) and there was a little bit of fret sprout on frets 15 and higher. Not a big deal and an easy fix but still...
All in all a very good guitar and accessories package for a good price. A Bluetooth "aux in" circuit for the tiny but decent sounding amp would be a great addition and would make the package that much better

Interestingly enough this kit actually hits a pretty large audience. For a beginner this is an absolutely perfect kit with everything they’ll need. The guitar is a strat through and through.

Great starter guitar, highly recommend might want to upgrade amp and strings in the future though

It's a great looking guitar and it comes with a lot of extras that make this a great deal.

Good product great sound you will need to buy a good amp
Guitar god
Great guitar for my girl, and it matches my sunburst acoustic. The accessories alone are impressive. Seems like the tress rod might need to be adjusted and we will see how that goes
Erick
I love it, it is my firts guitar and I am loving it. I had to buy another amp becuase the one that comes with it wasnt really good, but other than that the guitar plays beautiful sound and it stays on tune for hours.
Jorge
This guitar kit comes with everything you need and for how much this cost, the quality of the guitar is so much better the the asking price. If you have any problems with anything in the guitar kit then contact their customers service, there customers service was really good and they helped me fix my issue that I had with the guitar kit. So if you have any problems, their customer service will help and where a great help. Out of all of the guitars I've bought this has to be one of the greatest one for it's price, especially the mini Amp which sounded so much better then I expected and trust me you will not regret buying this if you are looking for your first guitar. The guitar kit is great and the customer service is great so you should definitely get this if you are starting out.
Jim
Overall, very pleased with the appearance and function of the guitar.
Bartlett
The neck is straight, fret ends are smooth, truss rod was actually right on the money, and the finish itself is fair. The fretboard and neck are more or less raw wood which is fine to a point. My kid is learning, he doesn’t care. I’d spend a few hours fine sanding and oiling the neck if I had to play it a lot.
Junior
The guitar is amazing I would say for the price and quality it is An amazing deal I got this for the intent to learn a new skill I have to say I am very excited.
Jared D.
I reserve 5 star reviews for products that really deserve it and this guitar certainly does.
Mcgill
This guitar is sooo good for the money. The pickups sound surprisingly wonderful and the finish and setup was great right out of the box!!! I love the yellow color!!! Its very unique! The frets were smooth, the next was straight. The intonation was spot on for all 6 strings. The action was low and very playable. The tuners which are made by Donner are better than any entry level tuners. I highly recommend this guitar and i wouldn't hesitate to do small gigs with it.

Keep in mind that this is a beginner level guitar and not targeted toward guitarist that have been playing for years. That being said, I am actually really impressed with this guitar and the rest of the kit.
Guitar:
The materials are lesser grade (tuning heads, pickups, bridge etc.) as you expect on a beginner model guitar, but the overall its put together well. The neck is a bit more bulky than I would prefer, but it feels pretty good with a satin feel. The frets are dressed really well. I've several student level guitars and the frets usually dig into your hand, but that's not an issue with the Donner guitar. It also looks like it's even made from actually wood and not cheap plywood. I haven't taken off the pick guard to check though.
Amp:
The amp was much smaller than I had expected. The distortion channel seems to only have one level of distortion, but the clean channel is pretty decent. It even has a built in battery and is extremely easy to pick it up and move to a different room (which is nice for the parents of aspiring guitarist).
Accessories:
The cable is good quality. I use Donner cables on my own pedal board. The tuner arrived broken, Donner quickly sent me a replacement. I was really impressed with their customer service. The capo is so good. I tried it out on a couple other guitars and it seems to work well. The strap, picks and strings are also good.
Overall, this guitar kit is a really good value for the price. I've been playing guitar for 13 years now and actually found myself having fun playing this guitar. I would recommend this to a freind
Billy
All in all, I was really happy with this guitar. At $129, I’m not sure how they even make a profit. Nicely done, Donner. Nicely done.
Ethan
The fit and finish of the guitar are surprisingly nice for the price. The neck has a smooth satin feel and overall it plays rather nicely. The pickups aren’t bad for the price either - the bridge humbucker is full but cuts well and sounds especially good with overdrive/distortion (skip to 2:05 in my demo for an example). The tuners aren’t the greatest, but they get the job done and could easily be replaced in the future. Overall for a strat-style guitar with the accessories that are included, at this price range it’s a great value with pretty good quality!
I recorded a demo playing straight into the included amp with no effects and recorded using the “headphone out” feature of the amp.
Mrs_JWoods
He loves it and seems to be good quality for the price. It came with some accessories and he earned the money mowing lawns to purchase this after finding the one he wanted.
Murphy
Brilliant starter electric guitar and you get the practice amp which when you plug the power cable into the amp and start to play the sound is fantastic. Great value for your money enjoy.
