Donner 39 Inch Electric Guitar Beginner Kit HSS Red

I have expensive guitars which I'm afraid to take out of the case whenever we have a drunken jam, so I needed something relatively inexpensive but reliable I could have around for such occasions. I wasn't disappointed with my choice.Features:- Comes packed like a newborn, well padded and in its case. Well done Donner!- Excellent workmanship on the body and neck considering the price point- No fret sprout which is again very nice to see at this level- Once set-up it plays like a dream if you know what you're doing in terms of neck/action adjustment and intonation- Sounds great with it's little rechargeable amp as a strat should- Ridiculously generous set of accessories, I really don't know how they do it at this price pointWould have liked:- One in red, but I'm just being picky. I think the blue also looks quite nice and I was split between that and the sunburst.All in all a great instrument that serves exactly the purpose I wanted it to. It won't be your Wembley number one but it will be a great jamming machine which you are not afraid to treat with a bit of passion due to its sturdy build. Well done Donner!

Still have it after 3 months now, really nice sturdy guitar, plays good, full sized and easy to use, just have to wear the strings down a little so they don't hurt, the guitar feels nice just a bit on the heavier side which is no problem, the Donner strap was a bit bad since it lasted a good month before it started slipping off as the weight digs down on the strap, so far no problems with the durability of the guitar, the amp is alright the overdrive mode is a cool bonus I think this might be the best budget kit on Amazon.

I'm genuinely confused about how you can get so much guitar for so little money.Back when I started playing guitar most people would head down to their local Argos (or similar) and purchase a guitar deal which usually totalled around £150 and came with a bedroom amplifier and strat copy. Now on paper that sounds like what you're getting here and in honesty that's what I expected... at first.Firstly the guitar was of surprisingly high build quality! Sunburst finishes on cheap guitars always risk looking tacky but as you can see in the video this certainly looks the part! The neck was nice and thin and everything felt sturdy. The finish was mark-free, it's definitely one of the best looking strat-copies I've seen at this price point and looks decisively more the part than most similarly priced Squires I've played!The amp is table sized which is ideal for bedroom practice. It's not versatile in tones and it's not going to help you play over a drummer (or in a live band scenario) but if you're looking to have a quick practice that won't upset the neighbours it's ideal!I've found personally that the larger amps in other bundles tend to be less convenient than this as I could slip this in a small bag and take it anywhere and that they quickly end taking up precious floor space once you upgrade to a proper gig-able amp, which is another issue you avoid here.Additionally you receive all of the accessories you'll need to fully indulge in guitar playing, including:- a capo (used to play open chords further up the neck, think Ed Sheeran)- extra set of stings- set of picks- case and strap- amp lead- tuner (stick this on the end of the guitar and make sure you stay in tune as you learn!)If you were going to twist my arm and ask for cons i'd say the following:- There is some small glue around the nut.- The speaker didn't output until I turned on the overdrive volume and I felt as if the other knobs were negligible.- The strings felt cheap/standard (easily remedied by slapping on some new strings, I recommend a set of 'Ernie Ball .9' for you new players out there! A staple quality string set that will improve the feel of the guitar no end).In honesty getting an entire starter kit for £105 shouldn't be possible. This bundle exceeded my expectations in every possible way, it feels as if no corners have been cut with the included products and I've found everything in this bundle to be usable, so well done Donner!Highly recommended for someone looking to learn the basics/dip their toes before purchasing their dream axe!

This is my third guitar. Recently started learning and struggled with finding the right guitar from dreadnought to a cheap acoustic , i decided to try this. And i am really impressed. Not to heavy for a beginner, comfortable and sounds great. Tunes well with the pegs and tuner included. Other accessories make it a really good deal for the price. Also plays well on rocksmith Xbox series x.The amplifier is pretty decent, has two modes of clear and distortion sounds. Can be used with headphones. I would give 5 stars but i don't have enough experience with guitars to give that.Update after 3 years. Still using this guitar as well as another. It's a good beginner guitar and practice. I have had 8 guage strings put on and had the string action lowered at a guitar repair shop that's made a whole lot of difference for me. Keeping it clean with string polish and Guitar cleaning fluids is essential maintenance. Sounds great on a Marshall amp. Advise Yousician app for learning!

First a quick shout out to the seller - Moukey Store. They have been extremely responsive and have kindly offered small refund for a defect caused during transport. I am very happy with their service.The guitar itself is absolutely amazing value for the money. It plays great out of the box, sounds about as good as mid-range Fenders and its very comfortable to play. The guitar is not the lightest weighing close to 4kg. Not only it plays well and sounds great but my color Tidepool is an absolute stunner. It is much brighter and bluer than Fender's Tidepool but it just works and everyone who has seen it has commented on what a beauty it is. It is worth saying that on the picture it looks like the color is solid blue, but actually it has the sparkly finish within the blue. Simply gorgeous.As for the accessories, I didn't really care about anything apart from the amp which has really good reviews online. Overall it has been a bit of a let down. The sound is just not that good and you basically cant play on low volumes. The best feature of this amp is that it has headphones jack and AUX input. I find myself using it only when I want to play on headphones and with backing tracks, otherwise I plug in to other amps.All other accessories is just basic cheap stuff, even though the strap is pretty comfortable and has faux-leather ends which is nice touch.All in all, you just cant go wrong with this bundle. It is just an incredible value for money, I have no idea how are they making any profit

Firstly, this is a crazy good deal considering what you get. Gig bag, capo, strings, strap, plectrums, tuner, cable AND a 3 watt amp plus a really good quality beginners guitar.The guitar itself feels like a good quality build. I was honestly surprised by this because I thought the accessories alone would cost the best part of the price tag on their own. It feels sturdy, the neck feels good and it plays nicely. This really does make a perfect starter guitar for anyone just learning because you get everything you'll need to hit the ground running. It feels and plays like a much more expensive guitar in my opinion. I've played some terrible starter guitars growing up with most of my friends being guitarists and this is a real cut above.The amp was also a real pleasant surprise. You get 2 channels, clean and distortion, with their own volume controls plus tone and gain controls. The clean gives a reasonable volume (as much as you'd expect for a budget 3w amp) but with a nice tone and the distortion can be pumped out a lot louder. I really liked the fact it's battery powered, charged by micro usb, so you can use it any where and take it around with you if need be. It also has an audio in input for playing music through it when practicing. Great for learning songs and using backing tracks.All in all I highly recommend it. If you really want the best out of it I'd advise taking it for a professional set up (normally £40 - £60 and there's always someone in the area) to just get it playing to the best of it's ability but this is in no way required as it plays fine on it's own.

I think this guitar and brand has amazing potential.ProsIt creates an amazing strat sound, practice amp sounds pretty good, 10ft long lead with velcro which is a nice touch (haven't tried the cable yet though), grippy strap, capo seems durable (didn't really try it yet), variety of plectrums. Love the sunburst. It looks much better than the pictures presented. Came well packaged. (Could be improved.It sounds great but the neck can definetely be improved, but for the price, it is breathtakingly stunning. Neck trust rod seemed fine, but the action was not the best, frets didn't feel the most comfortable to bend but if I use treatments it should be fine. Gig bag quality was poor. I tried to put the guitar back in for the first time after taking it out and the zip broke. I believe there was supposed to be 5 plecktrums in the packet but there were only 4 (presented in the picture). The pickup blade switch is too stiff to switch (with use, hopefully it won't be). The amp is a little quiet for me when I was using clean channel.To sum up, it is a bloody brilliant product! It is a great starter pack, but for the people who uses guitar that costs a grand or more, this won't be the one for them.

Where do I start.. well when it came it was delivered in a standard guitar box, well packaged with not a mark on it so full Mark's for that as this type of thing is easily damaged in transit. I'm still amazed at how well this guitar plays for such a low price. I bought my son a fender standard for his 18th birthday off here for £267 for just the guitar. And it is every bit as good. The only difference are the pickups. The fenders are brighter and slightly cleaner sounding but the difference is minor. As for playability I actually prefer the Donner. You can get the action lower than a fender and the bridge is easier to control in my opinion. Cosmetically, its exceptional! I went for the metallic light blue (see pic) the neck is very well finished, once stretched it stays in tune brilliantly too. The mini amp that comes with is great too, surprisingly loud and very clear. Love the fact its chargeable too no battery needed. The case, strap, picks, capo even the lead are all top standard. All in all what a package this is. The guitar alone once played is as good as any squire you will play, and I've played many. So if your new to the guitar world take my advice and look no further for a complete package. This will not disappoint anyone who buys trust me.

Veramente un ottimo prodotto, non spendi davvero nulla per tutto ciò che ti da.

Se trata de un producto de iniciación de muy buena calidad con buenos acabados y un sonido excelente. Viene con un kit prefecto para poder empezar a tocar desde el primer momento. El amplificador es correcto para ensayar en casa en habitaciones pequeñas, el sonido es claro, pero tiene poca potencia. La guitarra tiene un peso algo elevado sin ser excesivo.

Bien pour une première main

guitar kit is perfect for a first time buy to get started.

The guitar works well but the cable works intermittently had to buy a new one.
