20 Best Instrument For Small Hands (2023 Updated)

I really like the comfortable size this guitar is for me. I had a 610mm / 48mm nut and also a 660mm / 52mm nut full size classical (a Yamaha G-231. This size is perfect. I love the scale length and the slightly smaller width of the nut.

The string spacing is excellent. The sound is getting better as it gets played and the strings stop stretching so much. The bass on the Savarez is not a boomy as D’Addario Pro Arte normal tension but there is a nice balance in the set.

I really love the action height the guitar is currently set. I probably will not change it. The finish is classy. The packaging was fine. I am amazed that guitars do not get damaged in the two box system.

Does not seem that strong overall, but it came here without damages. Day 1 – but I can hardly take the time to write this or step away from playing the Dolce. It does sound remarkably better than my past two classicals, a 1978 Giannini AWN-21 (it was likely still a 3/4 or 7/8), and full size classical 1980 Yamaha G-231.

Both of those were nicely made, but one was twangy and had poor intonation and the other was a little muffled. I feel as though this new one has excellent projection and volume for its size and the intonation of notes are clean sounding between frets and combined in chords.

Bottom line is I really like my Dolce purchase. Collin was my sales advisor and I got a nice President’s Day sale discount. The guitar arrived in 3 days after order.

I am taking a beginner guitar class was a professional classical guitar player. I finally decided to buy myself a new guitar and this was the only one he recommended. This is a very good quality guitar at a reasonable price.

The longer I play it, the better it sounds. I am very happy with this purchase and I will definitely recommend this guitar to others. If you are looking for a really nice nylon string classical guitar and aren’t willing to break the bank but you still want incredibly quality, this is the guitar for you.

The guitar generally looks ok. The sound is ok for a guitar this size. The finish is rough and the fret board is very rough. I mean the fret board edges are rough to the feel. The edges if the frets are almost sharp though I do not think they would cut you.

The string height is very high – almost not playable, but that can be fixed. All in all, if I had to do it again, I would spend a bit more and get something nice. It is bilked as a good beginner guitar.

If I were a beginner I probably wouldn’t continue playing! It is not a good instrument! Made in China? Stick to shoes China. Cordoba – major disappointment! Unfortunately, there was no instruments in music stores locally to test due to the COVID pandemic.

Supply is at near zero. Try your guitar out before you buy. I promise you will be disappointed if you do not!.

Rather than just discuss this tambourine, I am going to compare it with another Rhythm Tech tambourine that has the same form factor but with brass jingles. I lead a church worship team that does not currently have a drummer.

We do all-acoustic versions of contemporary songs, using acoustic guitar, bass, viola, keyboard, and vocals. On up-tempo or energetic songs, we sometimes use a tambourine to get some percussive drive.

I bought both the steel and brass Rhythm Tech models to try them out. Both versions share the same design. Both are well made and solid, and both have a nice, tight sound (for a tambourine). The steel jingles on this model have a brighter, sharper tone, and make this unit slightly louder than the brass version.

The brass jingles have a somewhat mellower and less piercing sound. We are using the brass one because the sound fits better with the rest of our instrumentation. However, this model (steel jingles) would be a better choice if we had a drummer, or if we were playing outdoors.

Bottom line is that we are keeping both of them, and we like them both for different reasons.

This was purchased for a relative, but of course I had to use it/use it whenever I get a chance. I got the purple colored one, and it is pretty vibrant, and neat looking. The wash of the stacks is pretty decent and it seems pretty sturdy.

I also threw it on to a clamp and used it on my drum kit, and it worked just great as an accessory on there as well. If you’re looking for an awesome colored tambourine, that sounds good too. This is it.

The “ergonomic” portion I don’t have too much to comment on, it’s whatever because you’re going to be holding a tambourine either way.

I bought my tambourine at a Sam Ash store in 1997 and I still have it. Aside from some dings and scratches, it still works perfectly! All jingles are intact and have never loosened. The cushioned grip is comfortable.

I bought this for my friend that wants to learn how to play the guitar. I chose this for him because it’s a nylon string so it wouldn’t hurt his fingers which I noticed that most beginners easily gets frustrated when the steel strings hurts their fingers and then stops learning how to play the guitar.

The guitar is well made and it looks like that it will last a long time of course with proper care. It’s very light weight and compact so it’s easy to maintain and store this guitar and also good for traveling.

I bought the Yamaha guitar for practicing difficult classical guitar passages. The 3/4 size makes these passages easier for my small hands. However, I was surprised by the ease of playing barred chords through the 10th fret and the sweet sound that stayed true through exercises in octave scales.

I would select this guitar for the first guitar for a child.

We have a full size acoustic guitar, it is too bulky for my preteen and teenager. The Yamaha CGS103 3/4 size is perfect for young learners, and the nylon strings are easy on the fingers. This guitar is well made, easy to play, and easy to tune.

Justin Giles/Sam Ash took care of the sale and made sure it was packed well for shipping. Great customer service, thank you!.

I was very disappointed with this and yes, I did return it to GC one week after getting it. First, this is a good feel and the shallow profile is comfortable. But I got this after trading in a dreadnaught Fender California Sonoran (2014).

The profile was a bit too deep on that guitar and started to cause pain in my shoulder which is why I wanted the thinner profile. I did research the Newporter Player for a while and played around with a model at the store.

But when mine arrived, wow, I was really put off by this. This guitar simply does not project much at all. In the end this is more akin to a parlor guitar and is even a bit too light in terms of weight.

I will say this does sound spectacular plugged in and with the effects I have on my Line 6 Pod HD 500 X, this sounded great. So it is really an electric guitar that sounds acoustic. But playing on its own without plugging in? No.

I was simply accustomed to the much crisper and fuller projection and resonance from the dreadnaught. Tuner was off as well and for precise tuning I plugged into my tuner on the Line 6 and saw the onboard tuner was significantly deficient.

Guitar Center was very cool with my return and did not hesitate to take it back and I glided into an Ovation Celebrity Elite. We’ll get to that some other day when it arrives. But I was put off by this fender, it just didn’t feel like they put the workmanship into this as they did my previous acoustic that felt like a real guitar.

This almost seems like a toy or as I said a parlor guitar. It’s a shame because I did like the satin olive color of the guitar I got here. One other note, the walnut fret board never felt fully comfortable and seemed a bit slow on movement up and down the fret board.

Sorry, I wanted to like it. Drew Dixon.

This series of Fender guitars are excellent. The shorter form factor makes for both easy playing and easier transport. It’s not quite a 3/4 size but also not a full size, somewhere in between. Overall build quality: Stunning.

The tuner is accurate and pickup is excellent, the tone knobs can get you a good balance in any environment. The mahogany finish is beautiful. The tuners are good, but they aren’t the most desirable – still have a good movement and no jumpiness.

Sound quality: Unplugged – I describe it as a ‘sweet’ tone, it’s well balanced and you’d expect with it being smaller that you might get some tinniness but you don’t. Sure it sounds more on the mid side of things when you strum hard and compare against a dreadnought, but this little thing really holds it’s own against more boomier guitars.

Plugged in – The quality of the pickup is great. There’s no fizziness or hissing. In fact I found it to be quite boomy going directly in to a home studio with all settings default. This could be intentional to make up for the smaller size and more natural mid tones.

It will definitely perform well live and your individual bass and treble knobs can help you dial in your tone whether it’s live or in the studio. Playability: For me, one of the easiest guitars to play.

I do have slightly smaller than average hands and usually do struggle playing a Gibson for a long time. If you have larger hands, you’d still enjoy playing this but remember the neck is shorter so the frets are closer together.

I can sit and play this for hours at a time and I don’t get any cramps or fatigue. Overall it feels like this series has been designed around this particular model. The mahogany body does naturally create a boomier, bassier tone – so combined with the smaller form factor, this is a very well balanced guitar.

The pick guard is just a cheap adhesive sticker thingy and it was already damaged and peeling off when I opened the box. Not a great first impression. But I chose to take it off completely and thankfully, the glossy finish that’s all over the body of this guitar is also underneath the pick guard, so it doesn’t look too bad at all and I can always replace it if I want to.

The “champagne” color looks champagne in the right light, but appears khaki or even greenish the rest of the time. I do love the shape though. It’s smaller, lighter, and sleeker than most guitars I’ve handled, awesome for a more petite person like me.

I’m 5 feet tall and 90lbs, so a lot of guitars have been too bulky and awkward for me. In that respect, the Newporter has made me a better player since you naturally do better when you’re more comfortable.

I also love the neck/head with the electric style shape and inline strings. I like the strings it came with a lot. It didn’t come properly tuned, but that was a quick fix, especially since the tuner works so nicely.

The sound is surprisingly rich. Great volume, especially with a pick. Overall, it’s a really nice option at a really nice price, I just wish the quality control was better. Getting a new instrument with peeling parts is really disappointing, feels like I got it used or something 🙁 but if you’re lucky and get a unit that is perfectly intact, you’ll love this rich, beautiful, comfortable guitar.

But if you can afford to spend about double, then I would suggest you do that so you won’t be gambling with the quality as much.

It’s a fun little thumb piano with a relaxing sound. The only downside I’ve found is that it looks like the keys will start to rust if you don’t take care of them properly and if you have fingernails (like me) you risk putting nail marks across the wood as you play.

Overall, a good buy that has kept me entertained since purchasing it. I recommend buying it for any musician that likes unique sounding instruments or kids that want to make noise (this way you get something much less annoying than your standard music toy).

Its okay. Well built, sounds nice, but one tine is not raised up enough, not tuned so that you can actually play a tune. My fault, I didnt know. However, tuning is way off, had to buy a tuning tool, but have know way to know what to tune it to.

Sounds great, except the flat tine. So that is contradictory. It makes a great fidget gadget. Will see if I can fix it.

Bought it for my girlfriend, as a musician herself he loves it and it has great sound. I bought the medium one and its just a nice Kalimba overall. The reason for the 4 stars is because it came a little scratch on the wood and I also feel it was just too expensive for what I bought.

I personally feel like I bought too much for what I got.

Who should buy this guitar? Intermediate/experienced guitarist who need a cheap throw around guitar, NOT for a beginner. I bought this as my first guitar and was able to learn basic strumming, chords, fingerpicking, etc.

To me it was the perfect guitar, why would suckers pay $200 for a beginner guitar, right? Well, that perspective all changed once I went to an actual guitar store and played around with the entry level $200 guitars.

The difference is night and day. The higher tier beginner guitars sound more mellow than this and more importantly have a lower action. my guitar skills were immensely better with the higher priced guitar, and finger fatigue was much lower.

No buzzing, easier to go back and forth on frets, etc. Bottom line: This isn’t a bad guitar to take with you to campgrounds, beach, bonfires, etc. If you already know how to play and have the fundamentals down this is a nice throw around guitar.

If it’s for a beginner, you’d be doing them a disservice starting off on this. They’ll have a much much easier time on a better guitar and less likely to quit.

This is my second Rogue starter acoustic guitar & must say it is the best for beginner/intermediate learning. The look & feel are great. I am average adult & find it a whole lot easier to play this guitar due to its smaller scale size.

Its sound is fantastic & is consistent. I’ve only found the need to tune it every now & then as I take it out of box. I recently tried a different brand/slightly higher end model guitar when my first Rogue gave out, but returned it as the feel & sound did not compare.

So that’s why I came back for another Rogue. My only complaint is that it is a bit difficult to find replacement parts for this, & wish that the tuners were of better quality. Other than that, I am very happy with my purchases.

It’s extremely slippery and has no grips on it. I was given this as a holiday gift by my child. After receiving it for Christmas, I played the instrument for a few minutes. Nice tone. I put it down. Picked it up in a few minutes and becasue it as slippery as if it were greased, it slid out of my hand and fell a short distance (about 18″) to the floor.

(I was seated in a low arm chair. ) It subsequently had a tinny, harsh tone and was out of tune. Sadly, she did not order it online (so she had no order number) and as a kid she did not think to keep a receipt.

Not sure what I can do now – it sounds horrible and it’s useless because of that. As I said, we don’t have an order number. I wouldn’t recocomend this product unless they modify it so that it easier to hold.

I purchased two Strumba Kalimba–one for my grandson and one for myself. These are really well-made and make such soothing sounds and soothing music—not annoying or tinny like other musical instruments that I’ve listened to.

My grandson and I are planning to learn to play each on our own first, and then practice together—duets! These are wonderful for relaxing down time if you want to de-stress and unwind. They were packaged extremely well for shipping and arrived in perfect shape.

Very please with my purchases.

Such a beautifully made piece of sound equipment! I use these every Shabbat Worship in my Messiah Worship Center. I feel just like Moses sister Miriam playing a tambourine! I am hard on these, tore up the one in our Messianic Synagogue.

Ordered this one. Beautiful color! Played it today! Really beating on it, SO FUN! WAY too inexpensive for the awesome quality! My pounding had no effect on it, Sound is pretty! I Bought one for a friend.

Going to buy more while they last! Shalom, thank you Wal-Mart for carrying these. Affordable. Love WAL-MART!.

I’ve bought this item weeks ago & I am so happy that I did. Years ago my mother used to always by me this same brand tambourine. I’ve been playing it at church & it has the same sound & endurance that I’ve so missed.

I highly recommend this product.

As a church, we have purchased Remo tambourines for decades but we are not thrilled with buying them anymore. The ones from years ago held up better. The pins slide out and so goes your jingles. I use to try glue to hold them in place.

This is very annoying. I continue to buy them because there are not too many choices.

This is an excellent ukulele for any skill level. It’s tone, intonation, and reverb is comparable to an instrument more than twice its price. I first came across Flight Ukes when I saw people raving about them on Youtube.

So for less than £50, I thought I’d take a punt. I’m very glad I did. Now I have several Flight instruments, their build quality even on their cheapest products is superb. I doubt you get a better quality instrument for the money.

Got it faster than expected, great quality, everything came as it says, daughter loves it !

TranslateShow in original languageDie TUC35 sieht einfach toll aus! Zudem, finde ich, hat Sie einen schönen Klang. Anfangs musste man sie öfter stimmen, das hat sich mittlerweile gelegt. Bin sehr zufrieden und würde sie mir definitiv wieder kaufen.

Auch das Zubehör funktioniert tadellos!.

I bought this as a travel guitar. I’ve had others, Martin Backpacker, Applause Travel, whose sound was flat. I’d compare my prior experience with small travel guitars as sounding like a cigar box guitar.

The GS Mini is unlike those. It has a great sound, when I pluck, I can feel the vibrations against my abdomen and chest – this is always a good sign. The scale is a bit short and bit cramped up around the 9th fret and beyond, barre chords are problematic after the 8th fret for my hands.

I expect that from a small guitar. The sound is big across all strings. The Taylor gig bag is high quality and very protective. I would buy this again and again.

The app isnt the greatest, and for this particular one, you have to buy a specific type of adaptor from USB-C to Micro USB but it needs to to allow more than just data. My brain is drawing a blank on the type, but its not the cheap adaptors, these usually cost about 10 bux a piece.

That said, it works great, the app is a bit sluggish, battery life is good for it’s size, the only thing I worry about is when the battery dies am I SOL? it does not draw power from the phone, which can be seen as a good thing or bad.

Overall, good gadget for checking heat loss, or cool loss, leaking pipes in the walls etc or ghosts lol.

The camera attached nice and works great BUT the battery lasts a total of 5 minutes and takes hours to charge up. It’s definitely a power hog or a defective design. For taking photos in a hurry of water damage or drafts it works but if your searching for a issue you will have to plan a full day of use and charging just to get a small house inspection done.

Several people have problems after charge the battery. Me too. Flir 1 lock, led stop on orange and dont work more. Totally unreliable. Short life time.

Amazing car. Absolutely flies and seems to be able to take a decent crash or two no bother.

Gets stuck when nothing is there, beeps too much. Hate it

This is very close sound and look to my 2nd guitar Guitar which was a Tatra Jumbo Accoustic so am delighted as I paid similar price over 50 years ago. around 89 (this was a Sale Price) as it was being sold to get space for new stock.

The Music Shop in particular was Paterson’s of Glasgow City Centre and this Guitar I purchased ‘TIGER’ from JMMusic has my ideal shape which I love even better and delighted with ALL the extras which came with it.

Please buy one here and you won’t get any better value anywhere else on Planet Earth.

This pack was on special offer when I bought it but even if it wasn’t it would be great value for the beginner. It looks nice, has a polished finish and is not clumsy to lift, hold or actually play. I am a guitar player and bought this for my granddaughter who wants to learn to play.

The key things to look for is playability, the ability to stay in tune and of course sound but these all turned out to be quite acceptable. This guitar crucially has a truss rod and comes with a key to make adjustments for those who know what they are doing.

The action at the 12th fret on this guitar is a smidgin over 3mm which makes it quite alright so down at the first 3 or 4 frets where beginners will be the playability was good. The guitar is made of wood and the sound was not half bad and should actually get better with age.

As I write this review the guitar has only been unpacked a few days and so is still settling down after getting acclimatised, being tuned up and played. It is holding tuning reasonably well which is one of the most important things.

There were one or two very minor finish blemishes and the fingerboard was very dry for some reason, maybe it had been in stock or storage for some time. Anyway, a spot of lemon oil soon sorted that out.

For this kind of price you can’t expect premium guitar quality but for the beginner it has an awful lot going for it, particularly as it comes with a bag, strap, spare strings and a truss rod key. Personally, I would include pitch pipes instead of the spare strings as the most off-putting thing when you are learning is playing out of tune! Overall, great value for money for the beginner.

Cheers, Richard.

Being a newby at playing a guitar, i didn’t want to pay a lot for a guitar, but i didn’t wont to get a crap one either! Thought about a second hand but sometimes you can get ripped off. So i got myself a Tiger guitar.

As i said , I’m a new learner but this guitar is spot on, made well, looks good, most of all the tone is nice even makes my attempt at playing, sound good! There are some other nice touches built in tuner which is easy to use, a strap and a zipped gig bag to keep it safe n’ tidy when not in use (even an allen key to adjust the neck, if it should ever need it.

) all in all, i think i made the right decision to but this guitar. SO BOTTOM LINE. VERY WISE CHOICE FOR A GOOD GUITAR. FIVE STAR.

Great tone, on pitch. Purchased 5 to teach a class of 4 -6 year olds. Has a great little case it fits in plus a few songs. Mallet clips into the bottom of the xylophone so it does get lost. I insist the children use the word “carefully” as they play.

so they consider it a musical instrument, not a toy. Great price and great construction. SO happy to find it a WALMART and was delivered so quickly directly to my home with free shipping since my purchase was large enough.

:).

This is a great tool for early childhood movement, music and story classes. I misplaced my first one after years of use; I took it with me everywhere, and periodically let the kids use. It proved durable and effective.

The sound enchants the children, and is also visually appealing.

This xylophone was purchased for my seven month old Granddaughter. It Is encased at the bottom so that little fingers cannot be jammed in the mechanism. The sound it makes is quite melodic and I am very pleased with my purchase.

Our 2nd grade curriculum recommends playing a lyre together, but they are a large investment so I was looking for an affordable alternative. I decided on this wooden zither. Let me tell you, I’m so happy with my choice! This is a high quality instrument that sounds heavenly.

The music sheets slide under the strings so it’s simple to play beautiful songs straight from the package. It’s also a wonderful accompaniment to storytime and puppet shows. I cannot recommend this highly enough.

Just a helpful note: It did arrive quite out of tune, but it comes with a little tool and instructions for how to tune. It was a bit fiddly, but I was able to tune it perfectly. It’s sounded beautiful ever since (a few weeks now), and I haven’t had to make any adjustments.

Wonderful! I can’t say enough about this- it’s a high quality instrument, my four year old son and 40 year old husband both love using it. It’s truly fun for the whole family! It arrived with some music, which I like to use.

My son is more interested in free-styling with it. It pleasant to listen to, which is not the case for every instrument in the learning stages.

The Music Maker Melody Harp is well made and attractive. It has a very pleasant sound. It did arrive with a broken string/wire. There is a provision to request a free replacement. I bought it for a ten year old who liked it initially, but lost interest very quickly.

I thought about returning it, but it is very nice so I am keeping it. It is not a toy but a real instrument.

I’m pleased with my purchase. My idea is to help young grandchildren to learn the basics of playing guitar without it being a chore, so the guitar stands on a stand in the lounge and their natural inquisitiveness does the rest, so far it’s been very successful.

The guitar is well built, robust, and looks like it’ll stand the onslaught of youngsters! I don’t use the bag but it’s perfectly good, it’s good to have a spare set of strings too, and the tuner is neat and easy to use, perfect for young children.

The playing tone is very good for such a small guitar, in that it’s not unpleasant to hear a beginner playing, unlike recorder or violin for example! My only valid criticism would be that it doesn’t have any markers on it to indicate the 3rd, 5th, 7th, 9th or 12th frets, they would be useful.

I’ve added them to my guitar myself.

After eventually getting my order right, I received my guitar and looked forward to my lesson. On arrival my tutor looked at the guitar and said it was not really very good quality as the top nut where the strings go down the kneck of the guitar was too big and would make it difficult to press down the strings.

But with the problems I had in getting the guitar and paying for it to be returned I decided to keep it and have a new nut added at my own expense. Would not recommend this company at all.

Pros: Brilliant guitar at a great price. Use the savings on the buying price for new strings though. Cons: I read a review elsewhere about the strings and they weren’t good they sounded dull and lost the tuning easily.

Bought new plastic strings £10 better for grand daughters hands.

The disks were held in by nails driven width-wise through the ring. One of the nails was not driven in straight so two of the disks fell out after first use. Rather than return it, I was able to repair it fairly quickly.

You might want to review the quality of items imported from Pakistan.

Bought this for a 7 year old for his “band”. Perfect for him especially because there is a narrowing of the tambourine where you hold it making it easier for him. Also nice and lightweight.

A few “Jingles” were missing on my Tambourine BUT Cameron in Customer Service took care of it right away! A+ rating and would buy from them again!!

Saw a Córdoba ad for this guitar recently, and really liked the way it looked. Being a Guitar Center/Musician’s Friend exclusive, and having owned 3 Córdobas (2 guitars, 1 uke) I figured I’d order. Product shipped and was received quickly.

The sound was okay for a cheaper model guitar, but the appeal of this guitar is supposed to be in the looks. Unfortunately, the actual guitar isn’t as pretty as shown in the ad. Turquoise color seems a little darker, and quality control seems to be lacking, as the rosette on the guitar just looks bad.

I don’t know if they all look like mine, or if this one slipped by quality control, but there’s a clear line visible on the rosette that makes me think that maybe the new guy at the factory was doing the rosettes on the day mine was made.

Additionally, both Guitar Center / Musician’s Friend say in the description that the guitar is made in Spain. It’s not. It’s made in China.

Long-time guitar player, first-time buying a bass. I purchased the Cordoba after contemplating another brand with rubber strings. I never could get my hands on one to try. Guitarcenter in my area stocks the Cordoba.

I like the more traditional wound strings on the Cordoba, the scale length and the overall construction. This Cordoba stays in tune really well. It sounds good acoustic but sounds great amplified. I love this little bass – a blast to play.

The onboard tuner is a big plus. Cons – action was a big high, but no string buzz, a fair trade off – and I would expect the higher action with a bass with a short scale. I will adjust the truss rod with the included tool.

Bridge saddles feel plastic, but at this price it isn’t an issue.
