Barely okay.
Anonymous 01.03.2017
I initially purchased this guitar for my older brother, since he was interested in starting to learn how to play the guitar. He just wanted something to play around at home, learn a couple of chords and scales. Sound wise it was alright, but the high E string could not stay in tune.

Pros:
1. Look. The look of the guitar is pretty well. Good quality materials.
2. Sound For a classic guitar, the sound is pretty reasonable.

Cons:
1. As previously mentioned, it was a massive problem to get the high E string in tune. You could get all 5 lower strings in tune, but the highest E would just not stay in tune. We took it to a specialist who managed to fix the issue, however it was quite dissatisfying having this issue in the firs place.

In conclusion, it highly depends on how serious on playing guitar is the person who is getting this guitar. If it is a small gift for someone who just wants to strum couple of chords and play couple of verses of popular acoustic songs. If it is someone who is more serious on playing the guitar, I would not recommend this guitar.

This cg-200bk was well set up no dings or scratches or colour differentiates,the neck was straight the action was quite high as you would expect on a classical guitar at this price point, overall very pleasing to the eye my students are very happy to use this once I lowered the action the, guitar played and sounded great.At this price point an incredible guitar, excellent value for money, this guitar chimed nicely, resonance was ok, another great classical guitar on a budget which looks and plays great .

Descent guitar for the price
VGuisel 22.12.2021
Sound: It makes a decent sound. Super loud, which means that it has good acoustic construction. I feel the sound is a little muffled, a little low. There is not much definition for the higher tones, but it is fine. You will not expect a perfect sound quality in a super-affordable guitar. Overall this guitar sounds good.

Build quality: Overall the built quality is great for the price. Nice color, with good finishing. No defects or scratches. The only drawback is the tuning machines. The guitar gets out of tune super easily. Which makes you have to always have to adjust the tune.

Playability: It is an easy guitar to play. The neck is comfortable and it is a super lightweight guitar. I was surprised by the distance from the cords to the neck. At this price level, the strings are usually very high making it difficult to play lower notes. But in this case, the height adjustment is excellent.

In summary, it is a great choice for casual players or beginners.

Beautiful sound
Lycanire 14.02.2018
I love playing this guitar. It's built so well for the price it's selling for and the sound that comes from it is divine. I'd recommend this for anyone just starting out or anyone who wants to play a classical but is unsure of where to begin. Top item - worth way more than what it's selling for.

Anfänger Gitarre
Llejk 30.04.2019
Für das Geld kann man nicht mehr erwarten. Zum üben der ersten Accorde und Zupftechniken gut geeignet.
Für Anfänger nur zu empfehlen.
Die 5 Sterne sind daher im Preis- Leistungsverhältnis zu sehen.
Ist natürlich keine Gibson :-)

I do play the gitar myself for more than over 40 years. Bought this black beauty for my 10 year old PatenKind. I did play it in and tuned it for him several times before giving it as chrismas present. I was realy amaized by the perfect sound and finishing of the instrument.
Wich I could have bought this stunning black gitaar as a child.

its an ok guitar not the best but ok ...good for campfire stuff (not burning it i mean playing it)..for £27 i cant really grumble and better strings will make it sound and feel better ..good for students and if you are thinking of getting one for your kids then go for it ..its far far better than the junk you see for sale in supermarkets.
