   A very very nice guitar!
   I ordered this while I was on travel for business, just to have a beater instrument to play in the evenings. I’ve played guitar for several decades and have a nice stable of instruments at home. I have other Donner guitar-related products (pedals etc.) at home and have always been happy with their gear. It’s decent quality gear at a good price. This “beginner kit” seemed like it would fit my needs – it has not only the guitar, but bag, strap, capo, picks, tuner, spare strings, allen wrench for adjusting neck relief, and polishing cloth.The guitar is very very nice! Best I can tell, the top is not laminate, but is solid wood (specs say it’s sitka spruce, and I could believe that). Sides and back may be laminate, but I don’t think so. Fit and finish on the joinery and inner bracing look really good. Fret ends are nicely smooth and polished. The guitar was nicely packed and padded and was in great shape when I unboxed it. Strings were fairly slack (which is how a guitar is supposed to be shipped). I tuned it up and stretched the strings and the tuning has been rock-solid ever since, going on 36 hours of ownership, now. The neck relief needed a little bit of adjustment. The nut slots had the strings sitting a little high off the first fret, not terribly surprising given that it’s a $150 mass produced guitar, but not at all a dealbreaker, either. The bridge is compensated and sits a little high, lending a slightly high action for the instrument. When I go to change the strings, it’s easy enough to pull out the bridge and sand it down on the underside to lower the action by about half a millimeter…that’s a 20 minute job.And…it sounds and plays really really well. It sounds like a dreadnought! Plenty of low end, projecting midrange, easy fretting with no buzzing. This instrument is a steal for what I paid for it.The extra bits are hit or miss, generally OK.- gig bag is not very padded, but it covers the instrument and provides some protection.- strap, picks, polishing cloth are nothing special – they get you up and running as soon as you unbox, but you’ll probably want to get better picks and strap.- I can’t comment on the extra strings; I haven’t used them yet. They’re 11-gauge (light acoustic). I’m sure they’re fine, I assume they’re the same ones that came on the guitar, which are perfectly serviceable.- the tuner was non-functional, but it wasn’t a big deal…I have a tuner app on my phone…so no big lossOverall, five stars for the guitar. The guitar, and the overall kit, is perfect for a beginner…or really any player. I consider myself an advanced player and I just wanted an inexpensive instrument to play while on business travel. I wasn’t expecting boutique quality; but this is a very playable instrument that’s a steal for what I paid for it.If I had a suggestion, maybe it would be to leave out some of the extra bits (tuner, strings, strap) and upgrade the gig bag.

   Held up for a year now.
   So, I have had this for a year at the time of this review. I bought this to try out my acoustic skills. I have since reverted to be an adolescent again and customized it.. (last pic) i have an electric guitar, but this is my first acoustic. I bought inexpensive in case it wasn’t for me, but from a name brand.. The action was decent out of the box (playable). I believe I adjusted the trust rod to get it a bit lower. This is a bright sounding guitar and is very light in weight. The gig bag is pretty good, actually. It’s a great value for what you get. It’s a great beginner rig. Stays in tune pretty well. Looks good also. Full-size cutaway guitar. If you’re a beginner, you should probably change the strings out for some 10s or a lighter string than 12 gauge. Your fingers will thank me later. Bottom line.. It’s worth having.

   Good Guitar Package for a Beginner
   Before getting to the details of the guitar, I must say that this is a crazy good deal and an easy 5 stars to give for a beginner package. They really put a lot of beginner equipment in with this guitar. I’ve been playing for about 25 years, and purchased this guitar for my younger brother who wanted to start playing. Before giving it to him, I opened it and played it for a few days before handing it over. Below is what I was able to notice while playing it.1. Action / Neck: Most importantly, the action wasn’t too bad at all. I put a picture of the string height in this review, so please check it out. I didn’t tweek the truss rod at all, and the strings sat fairly low right out of the box. I was expecting a much more bowed neck for a guitar at this price point. I measured the neck straightness with a straight edge and it hardly had a bow.2. Paint: There is a very flat paint on this, which I thought was unique, but I actually like it. The neck slides smoother than a highly lacquered neck. The paint job isn’t perfect, but its a $100 beginner guitar.3. Nut: As expected, it has a plastic nut, but no issues there.4. Tuners: Tuners seemed fine. They’re sturdy and I wound them with a string winder and they turned and held up perfectly fine.5. Bridge: It looks like there are a few carpentry corrections on mine, but again, no issues with its functionality and what I would expect for a guitar at this price.6. Accessories:a. Case: The case is not padded, but will work for any beginner. It has a large pocket on the front which is great to have. Everything worked great on the case, it had no rips or tares.b. Tuner: The tuner worked great right out of the bag. I like how small it was and easy to store in the gig bag.c. Spare Strings: I left them in the box, but I’m assuming they’re the same that’s on the guitar. They appear to be a light string, but I didn’t stress them out too much.d. Strap: the strap looks great, no issues at all with it.e. Pick Guard: My pictures do not have the pick guard on them. It comes in the accessories bag, and has adhesive on the back. You will have to put it on yourself, but its pretty simple.All in all, if you’re looking to get into playing, I think this is a great option for the price. They really throw in a lot to help you get started. A beginner will easily get a few years out of this guitar. I highly recommend it, and think this is a great value for what you get. I gave it 5 stars.

   Good Guitar, Bad String Quality
   After 2 weeks of use, it’s easy to use, tuning isn’t the best and it goes out of tune after about 4-5 hours of playing. The appearance is great and it has a nice satin finish with a nice fretboard, it’s a full size guitar 41 inches. However I do recommend to buy another pair of strings as the strings on the guitar as they’re very rough and have blistered my fingers. Overall performance is great and I get a clear sound. It came with everything shown. A quality gig bag, tuner, .41mm and .71mm guitar picks, strap, capo, and another set of strings.

   I recently purchased the Donner 41″ Acoustic Guitar, and I’m very impressed! The guitar has a beautiful natural finish, and the craftsmanship feels solid and high-quality. The sound is clear and resonant, and the cutaway design makes it easy to play higher frets.The accessories included are a huge bonus: a sturdy gig bag, tuner, strap, picks, capos, and an extra set of strings. The online lessons are also a great touch for beginners who want to get started quickly. It’s everything you need to start playing right out of the box!At $219.99 (with discounts and coupons often available), this is a fantastic deal for a full-size acoustic guitar. Whether you’re just starting out or need a reliable practice guitar, this is an excellent choice. Highly recommend!

   This guitar is very light, but the craftsmanship is top notch. It has a satin finish, which looks good on the natural woods. The tuning pegs are smooth, and seem to be quite good quality. The sound is bright and clear with very good sustain. Maybe the bass is not as strong as a more expensive guitar, but for a non-pro, it’s not so important.When I first tuned it up (with the very nice included digital tuner) and played, the bass strings were buzzing. A common cause of this could be a neck bowed up in the middle. I looked down the neck, and it did seem to have a slight bow. I took the included Allen key, inserted it into the truss rod head (just inside the sound hole), and turned it towards myself a bit at a time, checking the neck after each adjustment. Sure enough, that fixed it. The neck was straighter, and the buzz was gone. So if yours has a buzz, don’t send it back…try to adjust the truss rod first.The included extra’s are of good quality. The tuner is great, the capo works well, there are four colord picks, a stick-on pick guard, an extra set of strings, the carrying bag (rather thin, but does the job), and a small chord chart on one of the paper tags. There’s a cloth bag to carry all these extras.It’s just a great beginner guitar and package, at a wonderful price.

   Gitarre ist großartig, klingt gut. Die wurde im Punkt geliefert. Einzige Dinge, die mir nicht gefällt, daß die 6. Seite war kaputtgegangen, während ich die Akkord eingestellt war.Gitar harika yalnız 6cı tel akort yaparken kırıldı, yedek teli taktım o da kırıldı

   The guitar strings as supplied need to be changed, a set of good strings makes a big difference to the sound.
