Really great value in it's looks, shape, colour and the extra bits just complete it. The amp is so differentl due to it's size but still belts out a great sound.

Strongly recommend this for any beginner. At this price point you are getting great quality and amazing value. If you improve and want to step up, then that is a different story, but if you either just play casually or learn casually or don't really do much more, you get a great guitar that doesn't break the bank.

Arrived on time, well packaged.

I’m in my 40s and decided for the 231st time in my life that THIS time I’m going to learn how to play guitar. I absolutely LOVE this guitar and everything that came with it. I’ve had it for about eight weeks now and I cannot put it down. The fluid feel of the strings and the quality of the sound on the super tiny and portable amp makes this kit GREAT for moving around the house when your wife mumbles under her breath that your mid-life crisis is becoming a problem, then passive-aggressively breathes out of her nose loudly between guitar strums. This kit includes everything you need to play with extra accessories. Excellent value. I would recommend purchasing an extra pillow so you can just sleep on the couch because you don’t have to deal with that. You’re a rockstar now.

I play acoustic most of the time. I like to play for my kids to help them wind down at night before bed... but have been wanting to mess around with power chords and grinding out some heavier rock....
The Donner came through like a champ. Seriously can't believe everything you get at this price. Excellent deal.

For the price point of this guitar I wasn't going into this purchase expecting a whole lot. I was extremely surprised at the quality of the packing alone. It was boxed very well and the guitar was well wrapped to prevent damage. The first thing I looked at was the neck. They don't state in the specs the radius but I am guessing it is at least a 12" radius. The strings were super high as most guitars come from the factory. I was able to get the action pretty low on both sides. A little less than a nickles width. That is generally how low I run all my guitar action. The neck quality is outstanding and the nut isn't bad. The only negative for me on the neck is the fret size. I like Jumbo or Medium Jumbo but these are all level and there is no buzzing. The frets are dressed nicely and there are no burs when sliding your hand down the neck. It came with 9's on it and a spare pack of strings. The guitar is comfortable to play and you should have no issues playing lead with the radius on this neck. This kit didn't leave anything out. The included turner was very easy to use and worked well. The mini amp is pretty cool. Charge it on your PC and rip away! The guitar cable that it came with is not the normal junk cable that comes with beginner level guitars. It is a good quality cable. I was even impressed with the included capo. It went on even and with good pressure and the guitar stayed in tune once it was on. Some capos you have to play around with the position on the neck.The good surface contact could be due to the radius of the neck. The guitar strap is more than adequate for the guitar and decent quality. All in all this is a great purchase for a beginner, it comes with everything a kid to rock out!!

I ordered that guitar for my husband as a Birthday gift as he always wanted to learn to play buy never had time, now when he get it he started his lessons! Guitar came packed very well, it is sturdy and looks very pretty, I think it is great for beginners but also for someone who is playing some time, it came with some accessories and even with a storage bag which prevent dusting.

Taking a chance on an unknown company can bring joy or sadness. Sometimes it’ll bring plenty of either, and on a rare occasion both. I’m happy to say that Donner is bringing joy with their Standard Series.

I wanted to learn to play guitar at the ripe old age of 59, and saw a bunch of good reviews of this guitar here and on youtube, so decided to take a chance. I received the guitar in good condition. Had to tune the guitar, which was not surprising, and utilized the included guitar tuner, which I found a little difficult to use (sure it is me), so tuned it with Guitar Tuna app. The amplifier is perfect for me, as it is small and easy to take from room to room. The package itself includes guitar, bag,strap, tuner, extra strings, picks,capo. I have been playing it everyday since I received it. If you are looking for a good quality electric guitar to fiddle around with and see if it is something you want to continue to pursue, you can't go wrong.

I'm completely new to guitar. I've worked through the first few lessons at Justin Guitar using this instrument.

The best guitar buy I have made! Awesome sound quality on the guitar itself. The amp is also great! Long battery life and the distortion is perfect for playing metal! Strings are a great gage and can be tuned to Drop F with no issues

Great for beginners! High quality and value

I am pretty happy with this over all. I was a little bit Frustrated with the delivery but it come with everything promised on the order. I never played guitar before but at the beginning the last 2 string Sound Bazzi (string E,B) Because it touched the freight and I take it apart and assembly together by watching YouTube video and reading some articles.

Great for beginners and even intermediate players. Sounds just as good as any other electric guitar. However, if you’re looking to play heavy metal this guitar isn’t for you. I can feel it’s a very sturdy and quality build guitar, and is a bit heavy even. Overall really happy with everything, the mini amp packs a punch!! I’m going to be buying a Jackson soon as I’m interested more in heavy metal. But you will find this guitar lasting you a very long time if you take care of it of course.

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. I've included a picture of my iPhone 6 in front of it for reference. 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

It is a beautiful left handed guitar, yeah! Great quality for price, great value and has all the accessories needed to start playing straight away, which I did! Small enough for me also as I am small of stature with small hands, I could go on. I love it and play it everyday
