Editorial Reviews:

This Acoustic Guitar is 38 inches in length. It has Linden Binding and wood construction with geared tuning. Each Guitar comes with gig bag and strap. The Acoustic Guitar is perhaps the most versatile and common guitar type. Perfect for the beginner or intermediate player. The tuning pegs are made of brass and steel for easy tuning and to keep the tuned string held in position. This Guitar also makes a great gift!

Summary: Horrible investment
Comment: I got this guitar for 30$ a while back, and really, what quality could I expect? They even nicked it up to 100$, a complete ripoff. Why? Well, this guitar is an abomination. Horribly made, when I received it, I immediately noticed some problems. Huge scratches and dents, a horrible and sloppy paint job on the frets, and several broken strings. It comes with a low quality pick, a pitchpipe(which is actually pretty useful, but the guitar is near impossible to tune) the Gig Bag(not really that bad, as a matter of fact) and some..mints?(Strange advertising, but probably the best thing in the package.)

Perhaps you could buy it and put it on displ- oh wait, it's so beat up when you get it it would make wherever you put it a lot worse.

Summary: Update to my review posted August 7th 2008
Comment: I also received a gig bag...since I do not know how to play a guitar yet I will have to wait until I start practicing on the instrument with my tutorials I ordered whenever they get here that is...LOL! Hope I made first beginner guitar choice though. Anyway like I always say,the ladies are gonna be lining up to talk to PeNName with his brand new Crescent 38" Blue Cutaway Acoustic Guitar with Gig Bag and accesories!

Summary: Don't be fooled by the price!
Comment: Please do not be tempted by the low price. This is a poor quality guitar and will only lead to fustration for beginniners. When I purchased mine, I immediately noticed the poor paint job, and several nicks and dents along the body. But most importantly the bridge is the incorrect size, which makes the guitar impossible to properly tune, or keep in tune without replacing it. Also, the board it's connected to is held in place with only plastic pegs with no sealing around it, which means it is only a matter of time before it breaks.

I purchased mine thinking it would be a fine learner guitar, but after of few weeks of constantly trying to keep it in tune (Guitar strings should settle after only a couple of days, not weeks) I was so fustrated with it and gave it to my teacher to take a look at it, who pointed out these two important defects.

Summary: Decent for beginner but get better one for long term investment
Comment: I recently decided to learn guitar and thought about teaching myself at home. Bought this guitar through Amazon.com after looking at some decent reviews on it and saw that the price is unbeatable. I like the fact that it is small and lightweight, and that it comes with a set of accessories, but I found it hard to tune. I would play a song that would sound 'right' going up the scale but sound 'off' going down the scale. I decided to take a class a month ago, and last week, my instructor tried to tune my guitar, and he said the guitar has an 'intonation' issue, which means that the guitar just wouldn't tune on chords even if the individual strings are in tune. I suspect there are problems with the frets markings. Overall, since I am pretty tolerant and big on cheap bargains, I would say this item is an okay bargain, and if you are unsure about pursuing guitar but need an instrument to try out, then you may want to get this. I was able to play melody ('Amazing Grace','Star Spangled Banner', etc) just fine. It will probably start giving me issues once I start playing chords. But if you are serious about playing guitar, get a better one, this one is a no go.

Summary: Perfect guitar
Comment: I was so pleased with this guitar. It was my first acoustic guitar, but I am glad that I purchased this guitar- it's been slammed into walls, and the wood still looks good. It was easy for me to play, and I plan on buying future guitars from Austin Bazaar. Only one bad thing- I received a red pick.
