FenderFA-125 Dreadnought Guitar - Natural Bundle with Gig Bag, Tuner, Strap, Strings, String Winder, Picks, and Austin Bazaar Instructional DVD

I broke my angle and wanted to find something to pass the time. I do not read music and do not play an instrument but have always wanted to learn. This is a perfect beginners guitar and the fender apps are amazing. This was packaged extremely well, arrived quickly and is a centerpiece in my ‘need a moment’ time. Sounds great! Great quality for the price.

This one box has everything you need to get started playing. I bought it for myself but it would also make a great gift for someone, of any age, who wants to learn to play.I was worried, at this price, that the guitar would be of poor quality. I was pleasantly surprised at how well-made and finished it is. Make no mistake - this is a cheap guitar, and anyone who is at all serious about playing will want something better in under a year. But in the meantime this looks and sounds nice, nothing to be ashamed of if your friends were to see it in your home. The guitar is well-made with a handsome gloss finish. It comes pre-strung, and the included digital tuner means you are playing within minutes of opening the box. It also comes with a spare set of strings ... which I think is a very nice touch, they really thought through everything you need to be a guitar player as soon as you open the box.The gig bag is the least impressive part of the set. It is really just a dust cover / carrying case. It offers no physical protection. Since I wouldn't trust it to protect the guitar in transit, and I want to keep the guitar out an visible at home as an incentive to practice, I have no use for this bag at all. It would have been better to include a guitar stand and/or a small bag or pouch to keep the picks and strings organized, instead of this bag.However, that's a small criticism. Overall I am very pleased, I have no regrets at all buying this and would recommend it to anyone looking for a learn-to-play instrument.

Having never previously picked up a guitar in my life, I decided out of the blue that I'd like to learn to play acoustic. Since I'm starting from absolute scratch I didn't necessarily know what I would need, so I was looking for a decent starter kit that had all of the essentials. This one fit the bill perfectly, and with a FENDER guitar no less! With just a little bit of tuning it was ready to go right out of the box. It may be considered a beginner guitar, but it looks and sounds great. The gig bag doesn't offer a whole lot of protection, but it does have some light padding and will do just fine for storing it at the house. Would have been nice if it had an external pocket for accessory storage (picks, polishing cloth, tuner, etc.). The picture makes it look like there is an external pocket, but there's not. If you plan on toting this around to lessons or some such, you may want something a little more heavy duty. One review stated a stand was included, but that must have been a fluke because it's not in the description and I certainly didn't receive one. Make sure you get one of those as well.The only minor issues I had were:1) the clip on tuner is nothing like the one in the picture. The one included still works just fine, but don't expect it to look like that. (Edit 7/12/13 - the picture has been changed and the tuner that is now shown is the one that I received)2) the extra string pack was missing, but Amazon CS more than made up for that.I'm not letting either of those little quirks affect my 5 star rating, because overall I feel like this is a great package for someone who is taking their first steps in learning how to play.

Now that I’m retired, I thought it would be nice to learn how to play a guitar. After much research and reading reviews, I decided on this bundle package from Austin which included the Fender FA 115. Delivery was quick and efficient. The contents arrived in perfect condition. The only problem I had was with the tuner, that did not work properly. After contacting Austin Bazarr, they promised to ship out a new one, so the customer service was excellent. I did notice that the Austin Bazarr included CD, provides some instruction that opposes what the Fender instructional site gives. For instance, the numbering of the strings from the CD is low toned E string to high, while Fender numbers them from high E to low. This was a little confusing at first, but given the Fender online lessons, I plan to follow their instructions. I also loved the free of charge Fender app to easily tune your guitar. This is really helpful since my tuner didn’t work. I also LOVE that I received three months of lessons with Fender at no additional charge. For a first time guitar player, this will be very helpful. I kind of think I would have found a 3/4 size guitar easier for me to handle, but hopefully I’ll get used to this full size. All in all, I’m very happy with this purchase and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great guitar at a great price, especially for beginners.

This has been a great guitar for me to learn on. It came in perfect condition. Mine did have a large piece of sandpaper inside it though which took a while to remove. I'm not really sure how that could've happened... But overall it is a great guitar for the price. The kit came with most of everything a beginner might need, but I do wish a capo was included for this price. Also, I did NOT receive the tuner that's shown in the photos, so that's why I've removed a star, but I've gotten by just fine using a free tuner app on my phone. It does need tuned quite often, as most cheap guitars do.

This was a gift for a really good friend, but I ended buying one for me too. It looks, sound, and all you can imagine PERFECT.Good for beginners and not expensive

Bought this for my son to display it in the corner of his room. Does its job nicely. Looks good and quite appealing to the eyes. Makes you wanna learn to play!

I wanted a second guitar that was different from my first one and for the price, this one is perfect, came with everything. Has a great tone.

Great guitar for the price. Great for a beginner. This was a christmas gift for my father and he has quickly learned how to play! Arrived very quickly.

This guitar is very good for beginner like me. It included all the accessories offered by the seller and arrived before time.

Very pleased with everything I got with the guitar and including how nice the guitar turned out. Came fast and I was worried through mail might get broken or something. Not even a mark of damage.

Great sounding guitar at a great price! Very nice starter kit for the beginning musician.

Amazing bundle! Highly recomend
