is this guitar too big for a 4 year old?

If your child is serious about music spend the money and go to a local music store. This is more of a toy. If you're look for a toy then buy it but if your child is serious about guitar then take the advice I didn't and buy local and spend the extra money and get a real guitar. Don't be dumb like me and crap off amazon because you want to save money. It cost me more headaches then it was worth and I ended up buying a more expensive guitar from a local music store.

Yes, it is too big for a kid with 4 years old. I bought it the Crescent with coffee color and I am a adult, fits ok for adult and I m sure also for teens but not for kids. There are in the market other models specifically for kids. Good luck and outstanding idea to bring this experience to your little one.

As long as she is an average sized 13 year old, there should be no problem. It's a really good learner guitar.

I'm thinking it would be a bit small for a 4 year old. We bought ours for our 2 year old grandchildren.

Hi If he is pre growth spurt The length is perfect. As for the guitar itself, they are pretty nice. Way Way better than what I started with. I think if you do a little research on the web, the guitar will play very well just by turning a screw or two, And the child will always treasure it. He will learn on it, then absolutely have to switch to a full size. Do not let him sell or trade the first guitar. It does become like your first woman, and he will go back to it at the oddest times!!!

No it would not be too small. I bought it for my son for his guitar lesson and it is a little too big for him but for 5'4", it should be okay. My son is 8 years old.

My granddaughter turned 9 and was her birthday present. Along with lessons. Her instructor complimented the guitar and she is totaly capable in learning and playing it. But I do presume it would depend on the childs frame size. If she is petite i would search for something smaller or wait a few years.

Hey, we all know that some 10 year olds are bigger than others. If your child has a reasonably large enough hand that he/she can grip the guitar neck like a baseball bat, then I would say yes to this guitar as a beginner instrument. The size of the body won't be an issue really. The hand size is the real concern. So, once again... YES!!! Enjoy!!!

Hi, My grandsons received one last Christmas because they wanted to take lessons. But, they lost interest and the guitars probably haven't been used much. I don't have any way of knowing how they would have held up. I bought this guitar because of all the reviews of parents who had purchased it.I believe it was a 3/4 size for smaller hands.

I don't think it would be a good idea it is about 3/4 of the size of a normal one it is not a tiny guitar. By the way we finally got to tune it properly

hi maripearl,this is a full size adult guitar. not that kid's can't learn on it but it might be a bit big for a ten year old. but the price is unbeatable for the quality.

Hi M. Stewart,I own a G9126 and even that it is a small beautiful guitar the neck is almost as wide as a regular size guitar. I think the space between frets and strings will be to big for a small hands kid. The Cordoba guilele and Yamaha gitalele will be more suitable for your kid (because of the thinner neck they have), they are both cheaper on price and quality but not that much on sound. The Yamaha comes in different colors.....you can also check smallguitars.com

That is mostly dependent upon the age and frame of the child. The guitar is 3/4 scale, so it would be more appropriate potentially than a full scale.

A 30" guitar will do fine for an 8 year old. Most guitars are 38 to 42", so this size should be fine. You might also look at the Cordoba C-1 1/4 size, although it's quite a bit more expensive. This would probably make a decent starter guitar (ie cheap but useable for at least a year or two).

My five year old is amused by my 2 years guitar. It's not something she gravitates towards regularly. I'd say you have better options

It depends on the size of your ten year old! I am 5'4" and my hand breadth thumb to pinkie (think stretched out to make a turkey hand) is 7". I don't have a terribly difficult time playing, however I do think it would be easier on a small neck. I would suggest looking into a 3/4 size guitar, but I do believe that the 90 would be playable.

Yes, its a good size, maybe still a tiny bit big for a six year old but good practice for a full size guitar

Depends. Its a good solid guitar for the price but at 10 she may be a bit small to hold the body to play it, since it is a full size rather long necked and wide bodied guitar. Basically if you think her arms are long enough to finger the frets and get her other arm over it to strum -- go for it -- if not go for the the 3/4ths size to start. That is what I would do.
