 Perfect for a little one November 30, 2008
TexyInAustin (Austin, TX)
I bought this for my 7 year old son at a local retailer on clearance. I was very wary at first because of the deeply discounted price. However, my son has learned so much and mastered the first cartridge. I am now looking to buy more.
I did buy a guitar hero for Christmas in 2006 and traded it in at a local retailer after a day of loud hard rock that I felt was not suitable for my then 6 year old. I am not personally opposed to the hard rock music but for a little one playing I didn't feel GH was appropriate for him yet. This one is definitely more age appropriate.
My son was frustrated at first but quickly caught on. The system asks you if you want to go slower or faster to help the little learning hands set their own learning and playing pace.
I would definitely recommend this guitar. I do suggest that parents offer assistance and sit close by the first few rounds to ensure their child understands how to speed up or slow down the game. It is the parents responsibility to help match the level of the game to fit each child's individual learning needs.
 He loves it November 25, 2008

I bought this for my 4 year old grandson. He loves it, because it's like Daddy's guitar hero. He can play it now, and according to my daughter, it will challenge him for quite some time. I'm very happy with this purchase.
Really educational guitar October 12, 2008
P. Haskew (Birmingham, AL)
My 9 year old son did not have the patience to watch and learn the notes. It could have been a great learning tool, but it was too much for him. Guitar Hero is more his skill level. He still loves it, just don't expect your child to become a virtuoso - he just enjoys banging around on it. It has held up very well.

I purchased this guitar for my four year old son who loves music and all instruments. He hasn't put the toy down and I have definitely gotten my money's worth. The TV mode is better for older kids but playing the guitar on its own is just as much fun. A great toy for the price and playing with it simulates playing a real guitar!
It's been over a year and my daughter is still learning on it. August 6, 2008

I bought this guitar last Christmas for my daughter because she wanted a guitar. I wasn't about to buy a new guitar and lessons because I wasn't for sure of her interest level so we bought I can play Guitar. My daughter says that it isn't as fun as Guitar Hero, but she says that she actually knows the cords to play. She's still playing it after a year and is pretty good at three finger combinations. The product is good. The graphics are lacking for the technology we have, but it is a learning tool. Unlike Guitar Hero she is actually learning real cords, so that is better the video game. I would recommend this to other people but keep in mind that this will unlikely please a child who is dying to have guitar hero.
