Instrument made in Eastern countries, I would go for China.
Made for Thomann, German store sales by VPC (https://www.thomann.de/). Sold € 39 or € 49 with a nice gigbag, practical and very well made (this is the option I chose).

Folk guitar, set neck, 21 frets. The body is in an unusual wood and is varnished in plastic. In short, the look is not her best asset. The key is a bit grainy, the bends a little squeak it. But at that price, you can not expect something non-standard!

But it has its charm, and it is fast: D

UTILIZATION

Channel enjoyable to play, the guitar is light, it handles well and is well balanced. No problem on that side.

SOUNDS

First note, and that the drama ... Sound a little deaf and cardboard ... Then it continues, one tames the beast and finally got used to it. It becomes even relatively pleasant. The sound is powerful for such a small object, and you play the more you love! Truly stunning!

But beware, the instrument is delivered without any adjustment, so small passage required by the box maker. By the way, enjoy up to "real" strings.

OVERALL OPINION

I've been 4 months now and I appreciate it more.

His distinctive sound is actually a plus for her, but be careful, do not expect a concert guitar. It is a great instrument to start (which was my case), and even more than excellent from your banker: D. It égalment accomplish its task if you are looking for an extra instrument special settings (as in previous opinions) or that you are tired to walk around with a piece of jewelry in the back on a Saturday night in a dodgy area. ..

I would do this choice without any hesitation.
