I bought this for my 8y old son, he loves it! You need to love your instrument, to get the best out of you! You need to feel for it, care for it, warm it up, as your heart dictates! :)
Being 3/4 is perfect for now, but I'm pretty sure it will be useful even later, as a back up/travelling guitar!
Enjoy it!
A, and one more thing, we wanted this Cordoba, but it wasn't stocked at the time, we went for the La Mancha Rubi S/59 which does not come even close to this overall quality. La Mancha was slightly smaller than this, but even the fiber of the wood and the finishing did not satisfy us completely. So, we returned it and ordered Cordoba quickly, as it came back in stock!
