Best Acoustic Guitars for Beginners

Whether you're looking to learn an instrument, or buy for a friend or loved one, you'll find what you need in our range of entry-level acoustic guitars. Our beginner selections are designed to cater for everyone. This means affordable, reliable and easy-to-use instruments that'll make your learning experience that little bit more enjoyable!

If you're buying for a child, we offer a great selection of smaller acoustic guitars that are perfect for kids! 1/2 and 3/4 size guitars are easier to get to grips with, making them a popular stepping stone in the instrument learning process. We also offer a great range of acoustic guitar starter packs, as well as electric guitar starter packs, which all include a number of accessories like tuners, straps, picks and more.

Buying a guitar that is the right size for your kid is important. If the guitar is too big, the chances are the child will not enjoy playing it and will become discouraged early on. Use this handy size guide to ensure you get the right guitar for your child.

1/2 Size: Perfect for kids aged 5-7
3/4 Size: Perfect for kids aged 8-11
4/4 (Full Size): Perfect for kids aged 11+

Remember though, these are just guidelines. So if your child is taller than average, they might feel more comfortable with the next size up. This will actually save you money in the long run... you're welcome!
