    I bought this expecting something that I would have to work on to, maybe, make it playable. All I wanted was something that could set out and be played by grandkids or non-players, something that would keep my "good stuff" out of the hands of those too young or too inexperienced to handle carefully. Whether I just got lucky, or this guitar is indicative of overall build quality I can't say; but, I got one darn nice sounding, easy to play guitar. Vastly exceeded my expectations. Has been setting out for weeks now and I have hours of playing time on it and I'm still waiting for something bad to happen, something to fix...I don't even have a complaint about tuning--holds as well as my much more expensive guitars. All that being said it's not a Martin or a Taylor, nothing like that kind of tone. However, it adds an interesting texture when played along with those high-ends. I'll live with the scuffs in return for an inexpensive knock around that I did not have to work on or set up, that others can pick up and ding without giving me a coronary, and that sounds and plays good enough for me to keep its older brothers in their cases when that sudden urge to play hits me.
    A basic, no nonsense slightly smaller knock around guitar.
    There were cosmetic issues: some scuffs from packaging and a couple in the factory finish. But the neck was straight, the set up was good out-of-the-box, it took and held a tune and, overall, it sounded better than expected.
    For the price (stupid deal of the day), great bang for the buck.

    Pay for the next Rogue up and right now it is the same price and the one above it is a dreadnaught and it survived a tour in Iraq and is now used in a church in Uganda. Awesome piece of art.
    It's that, a starter guitar. Like the other raters said, some got good action some don't. I ordered two, one had good action, the other did not. I now see cracks in the back finish giving the impression it is not solid wood or plywood even, it is particle board and veary easy to break. Both guitars have chunks broken out of the back of the guitars and hardly even used. I put them in my classroom and my students are rough on them, but one looks like it was kicked, but I didn't see it. The back of the guitar is fragile and proven when a chip broke off the back of the second guitar with just playing for five minutes. The students are afraid to play them because they fear getting blamed for the crumbling backs.
    CHeap is cheap and these are cheap. I had a Rogue guitar free with guitar strings and thought these were like that one, but not so.
    High action and fragile wood.

        Comments about Rogue Starter Acoustic Guitar:

        For the price it is well made, I mean, come on less than a Benjamin! You aren't going to play this in a gig, or become a star with the thing. It does what it is supposed to very well; which is pick up and put down in a moments notice not worrying yourself over whether it gets scratched or whatnot. Great guitar for the pre-teen that "wants" to play guitar. If they decide that it isn't their "thing", you are only out a little.

              Comments about Rogue Starter Acoustic Guitar:

              Was not able to play the guitar as it was damaged from the factory or warehouse. Guitar was sent in two boxes...the outer box had some minor damage from shipping, but the inner box that held the guitar was perfect with no damage. Opened guitar box and guitar body had a nice size crack on the bottom. Was not caused by shipping. I'm sure this has happened to others? Sent guitar back and did not order a new one. Bad rating does not reflect my opinion of the guitar as I did not play it. Hopefully, QC is improved because of this review in order to help others receive undamaged equipment in future purchases from MF.

              For the money, it's a great guitar. I got one for the kids to play when it was the Facebook deal for a very nice price. Mine was dinged on the top of the body, but I don't care. The frets need to be ground at the ends... When you slide your hand up and down the fretboard, you can feel them poking out a bit. Otherwise, it sounds ok and plays good enough for the kids to learn on. it's a great cheap guitar.

                Surprised at the quality of guitar at this price point . Well constructed ,great finish , stays in tune .
                But , the frets were really sharp on the bottom edges and scratched fine lines in my finger . With some careful fret dressing this turned into a super guitar for a friend wanting to learn but not having much cash . I have 25+ expensive guitars etc and this is not a toy or " south of the border" cluncker :-)

                Bought this Rogue guitar for my grandson to learn on and get used to a musical instrument. He loves it right out of the box. Have ordered a left hand Rogue for another grandchild which is on back order and is to arrive in a few weeks. For the money you can't go wrong on this product.

                    Not meant to be a knock: it's about the best you can expect for the price. Was more pleased with it than expected. I enjoy picking this up and playing it because the action is fine on the first 14 frets or so. Sounds better than you'd think for the price. I got mine for about 20% under what they usually sell in a MF sale but it's worth full price.
