quarter size guitar

| Review By: Dan Duncan | 5 months, 2 weeks ago

2 people out of 2 found this review helpful

Features:

While I'm not a guitarist, this is a very nicely made instrument and seems sturdy enough to survive in a classroom situation.  My only concern is that one (especially) of the tuning gears seems to have more play in it that others.  I think it will work OK for tuning though.

Quality:

This is a small instrument as it is supposed to be.  In spite of that, the sound (with nylon strings as it came) it produces is full and has good qualiy.  I believe that it will turn out to be just what I was looking for.

Value:

This appears to be a real musical instrument rather than the 'toys' I've seen in shops at prices just a bit lower that this instrument.  I would rate it as a very good value.

Overall:

Good full sound.  Tuning mechanism not quite solid. Very well constructed otherwise.  Came with nylon strings as I wished for.

Like buying a lottery ticket

| Review By: Fletch RockStarzUSA | 8 months, 3 weeks ago

6 people out of 6 found this review helpful

Features:

I own & manage a large group of teaching studios. We have multiple Lyons guitars in use in the studios, You cannot place expectations and demands on a guitar in this price, because it would be unreasonable. On the positive side, the build quality in the last 5-10 years for guitars originating from China/Indonesia/Thailand etc has improved.

Quality:

Lyons guitars have a very very broad range of quality control. Some guitars stay in tune and play not too badly. Other Lyons guitars like the most recent batch that arrived have very poor workmanship, with very poor intonation. The guitar face has knots in the wood, and airbrush finishing has been completely missed on certain areas of the guitar. Dried glue residue is common place around the guitar neck joint, body and headstock.

Value:

Again, it's tantamount to realize this is an inexpensive starter guitar. No problems, and no points deducted. But when a starter guitar fails to start in the first place, you really are handicapping your chances of success in playing guitar with an instrument that has substandard workmanship.

Overall:

I would only recommend these guitars for the most stringent budget based purchases, and hope that somehow you land a nice guitar through the mail. Of the most recent 5 Lyons guitars we bought 2 of the 5 would be considered 'generally workable'.

Don't waste your money

Overall:
My disastifaction is that when one plays the 1st & 2nd fret on the high E string it gives the tone of the 3rd fret, G.  I can make the guitar work with a capo on the 3rd fret or higher.  I've never been unhappy with anything else from Musician's Friend so I was careless in keeping track of the enclosed paperwork so I'm unable to return it.  Seems this must be a lemon since I haven't seen other poor ratings but this is my experience & impression of the product.

Good Guitar

Overall:
I'm 15, and I take my guitar around school, but decided I needed something cheaper to do so with in case my '50s Silvertone archtop was damaged there. I saw this, had enough and decided to buy it. Boy, what a surprise. The sound is surprisingly full and round, and smoother than I had expected. The neck is wide but comfortable, but the fret work and fretboard itself is undeniably cheap-they painted over some of the frets on mine whilst painting the fretboard. It's not a huge deal to me, but it is an eyesore. And the body feels and looks nice at first, but a closer look reveals underlying finish cracks and finish spots. Also, the bridge on mine is lifting up. It hasn't become a huge deal yet, but once again, it worries me. All in all, there's an equal amount of pros and cons, but for me and the purpose I intended it for, I don't think I could have picked anything better. Flaws are obvious, but the sound and feel make up for that.
