Ibanez GRGM 6 String Solid-Body Electric Guitar Left, Black Night GRGM21BKNL

I had to make some tweaks to it, but for the price, it’s priceless. It stays in tune even though my son plays it really hard, and the intonation isn’t too bad. Also, the shorter 22” scale makes it easier for my 9-year-old to play. Lastly, the action is really good as well, again making it easy for a beginner to play. All in all, it’s a perfect starter guitar for kids.

The perfect starter guitar for a child wanting to feel like a rockstar with a guitar built for someone a bit smaller.

It would be a great little guitar if not for the horrible fret sprout. I have to have it serviced before I can let my kid play it. They are sharp and leave marks almost cut, surprised it didn’t cut me.

My son's guitar teacher picked this out for him and it is pretty awesome. The guitar has weight to it and it not flimsy or made poorly. He has been playing it for 6 mos now and it is still in great condition with great sound. The price on amazon is a lot less than the big box guitar stores.

All my instruments get a regular going over by an experienced guitar technician. I presented this instrument right out of the box for his opinion. He pronounced it reasonably well intonated, which he could tell by noting the adjustments at the bridge and then by testing by feel and sound. He said he might do a little something when it's time to change strings after it gets played for awhile but otherwise, he was very impressed by the guitar's construction and the condition of the neck. This guitar is now owned by a very lucky young left-handed boy pre-teen.
