”This Guitar Is Childs Play!”

There is nothing like seeing the face of a young child as they discover the joys of playing a musical instrument. The Jasmine JS141 ¼ scale guitar is perfect for young beginning guitarists.

Perfectly proportioned for young players of 4-6 years old, the JS141 does not sacrifice quality or beauty. Its laminated cedar top and mahogany body will bring a smile to any face, and the balanced sound will ensure that beginners will be able to hear everything that they are learning.

The glossy finish of this pint-sized instrument ensures that it will stand-up to the wear and tear inflicted on it by young players without becoming too beat-up looking too quickly. And at <$130, it is not likely to discourage the parents from investing in their child’s musical future.

While normally it is not advisable to start beginners off on non-solid-top guitars, children who start at an age where ¼ sized guitars are needed can be rough on their instruments; they can also change their minds at the drop of a hat, meaning that having the JS141 with a laminated cedar top ensures that the price does interfere with the child’s desire to try their hand at learning to play. This is a great beginner guitar!
