This thing is truly a piece of crap August 22, 2010 william d bomar 2 Within 5 minutes two stings broke, and more have broken since. Now the strings that remain won't stay wound at the top. Other parts are also falling off as well (e.g. the little white thing at the top that holds the strings in place -- whatever that's called, I am not a musician clearly). After a day it is completely unplayable and useless, except that my 1 year old likes to try to smash it on the ground. I can't think of any reason to stop him.
woodstock fantasy guitar April 19, 2010 Steven Czifra (placerville california) the guitar came with extra strings, and a giant pick which my 3 year old loved. good buy over all.
Awful, awful toy!! March 4, 2010 J. A. Duffy (Philadelphia, PA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
We received this guitar, took it out of the box and tuned it. My husband majored in music in college and is currently a working musician, so he knows what he's doing. As soon as he tuned it, the neck and back separated from the body! My son never even got to hold it. He cried so hard while we packed it up to return. It was heartbreaking. We went to the chain toy store and purchased a first act guitar for 6 dollars more. Much better! Don't risk the heartbreak!
Woodtsock Fantasy Guitar: No Casualties.....Yet February 15, 2010 Bryan Carey (Houston, TX) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Woodstock Percussion Kid's Fantasy Guitar is a small, six- string guitar designed to entertain youngsters as they exercise their creative abilities. It is a good starting guitar for youngsters and it includes a few extras, such as a pick, additional string, and instruction booklet.
br /
br /This children's guitar is manufactured for young musicians in the making. It is small in size and easily fits in the hands of children. It is also very light weight so that children can easily hold it in place and play it without strain. It provides a means to make a little noise and create songs, making it a good choice as a creative outlet.
br /
br /Like I said, this guitar is very light weight in construction. It is so light, in fact, that I immediately began to question the guitar's durability. The construction is comprised of very thin pieces of wood and other materials and while nothing has happened since I purchased this guitar a few months ago, it seems like only a matter of time until something breaks.
br /
br /As for making music, this product does have some good things to offer. It creates a pleasant sound and kids will enjoy strumming the strings as they make up songs. Another nice factor is that the sound isn't very loud. One potential problem for some parents is that the strings cannot be tuned to the proper pitch. This instrument has the standard six strings, frets, and tuning knobs, etc., just like those of a standard guitar, but the strings can only be made to approximate the proper pitch. This won't matter to the vast majority of parents and I would say it is safe to assume that kids will not care either. But serious parental musicians may not like this.
br /
br /Of all the features of this guitar, the one that annoys me the most is the tendency of the strings to loosen. With ordinary usage, the strings slowly loosen up, regardless of whether or not the knobs have been touched. At first, I thought my girls were playing around with the knobs, but quick observation proved this was not the case. The strings just naturally loosen up, with regular usage.
br /
br /So, how does this children's guitar measure up overall? Well, it seems sufficient for its intended use and children will find it entertaining. On the other hand, its construction isn't very solid and the strings gradually loosen, even after a few minutes of use. Thus, considering all pros and cons, I'm going to give it an average rating overall. It hasn't broken or failed us yet, but it seems like a matter of time before it self- destructs and the field of pros and cons are basically equal.

This guitar is CRAP! January 7, 2010 Genevieve M. Huighe (dayton,ohio) 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
This guitar broke within minutes of using it. The strings were just popping off, and before they broke they made terrible music.
