Which guitar size is the right one for you?
The scale length indicates the size of a guitar - or more precisely the length of the vibrating string between nut and bridge. The standard scale is 650 mm and corresponds to a 4/4 guitar. All other sizes are therefore smaller and recommended for children and young people.
Here you can find our recommendations for age / body size and the appropriate scale:
- 1/2 Size: for ages 6-8 years or a body size of about 116 cm
- 3/4 Size: for ages 9-11 years or a body size of about 138 cm
- 7/8 size: for ages 11-13 years or a body size of about 147 cm
- 4/4 size: from the age of 12 years or a body size of about 160 cm

Unfortunately, our anticipation of the first guitar for our daughter very quickly gave way to the realization that the seller seems to be completely indifferent to either the advertised product, or the musical beginners. The shipment, really well packed arrived without any external blemish with us.
Unfortunately, it quickly became clear that this impression would not hold up to the instrument. The guitar bag was considerably soiled in two places, the accompanying documents (school) did not fit into the side compartment of the guitar bag. This did not bother the colleagues who were preparing the product for shipment. The documentation was forced inside and fixed with the zipper inside the bag. This damaged both the documentation and the zipper of the bag.
The instrument itself has several damages that are not necessarily in focus on the back, but are still visible to our daughter in daily use.
Since this beginner's offer was offered at a good price, and certainly also during the period of use own traces will be added by daily practice, we accept this.
Oh yes, the instrument could be tuned and it works...

Some rework was necessary so that the guitar was well playable. Frets with a small hammer driven in properly and the saddle ground down by 2mm.
After the strings had settled, my granddaughter now has a well playable, fretless instrument, which even with the supplied strings gives an amazingly rich sound for the size.
Conclusion: Absolutely recommendable as an entry-level instrument.

the order and delivery of the 1/2 guitar shortly before Christmas worked out very well. But some criticism I would like to get rid of absolutely. Already when unpacking from the box, I noticed that the instrument and the accompanying transport bag were quite dusty. The exercise booklet was crumpled and dog-eared in it, as the pocket on the transport bag is too small for A4. That made a very loveless impression. The pitch pipe I - after I got help from a guitarist - disposed directly. There are two criticisms of this from me:
1.) it is nowhere written that you have to tune a pitch pipe an octave lower than you hear, no child can do that.
2) two notes were completely wrong, it was unsuitable for tuning the instrument.
In addition, a small spot on the front of the body near the neck of the varnish is chipped, but you can see that only when looking closely, I can cope with a beginner's instrument - it probably gets from the child also some beats.
I'm aware that you can't expect top quality for 69.00 Euros, but a well-kept impression with a functioning pitch pipe would have been nice.
Now I'm excited about the first practice sessions and hope very much that my granddaughter can take her first musical steps with this instrument.
With best regards, Carola Lindner

Questions about product
Question by Mina on 16.02.2021
Hello my daughter is 6 years and we have our first guitar lesson soon would this size fit or which would you recommend us?
Answer by Musikhaus Kirstein:
For a 6-year-old, this size is perfect. If your daughter is rather small for her age, then I recommend a 1/4 guitar; if she is rather large for her age, you could also think about a 3/4 guitar.
Question by Beate Hindenburg on 16.12.2019
Hello, I received the order today. Now I have a question, there is no Kurt to hang around, I know that only so that you can hang the guitar around.
For a beginner, it is good to hang the guitar even times with strap around.
I would be very happy about an answer from you. If the strap is missing I would be very, very grateful if you would send it to me.
With kind regards
Beate Hindenburg
Answer by Musikhaus Kirstein:
Since children's guitars do not focus on playing while standing - as is sometimes the case with adults - no strap is included. If you still want to purchase a strap, I recommend this one, which can be attached to the sound hole without strap pins: https://www.kirstein.de/Gitarrengurte/Kirstein-Schallloch-Trageband-fuer-Klassikgitarre.html
