    Pretty Good for the Price
    I bought this guitar because I was looking for a really inexpensive but decent sounding guitar to use on vacation. The Fender FA-100 met my needs well. My four-star rating is mostIy based on price in relation to a halfway decent sound quality. I recommend this guitar for beginners, especially if they don't know whether or not they are going to stick with it. Experienced players can have fun with it too (I've been playing for 44 years.) No, it doesn't sound or play anywhere near as well as a Martin or a Taylor does, but at this unbelievable price point, you really can't ask for anything more. The guitar looks pretty nice as well. The gig bag it comes with is pretty junky, but it's still effective for light duty. All in all, if you are looking for a really low priced guitar that still sounds and plays reasonably well, this guitar is for you.

    Arrived apparently intact but as I removed it from the gig bag the neck was laying there totally broken off. Now I have to wait to see if my refund is approved. Check back to see how this goes.
