  $50 really is a bargain when you think of the benefits

  And maybe if it does not perform to your liking you can use it for this!

  Purchased one last year (Semi-Acoustic), junk! Wouldn't stay in tune and now sits in my shed collecting dust.

  Just bought the Semi-Acoustic, the string tensioner broke first time I used it. Took it back and got a replacement guitar which has tensioned up ok. Hope it's not a sign of things to come. Can't say I'm in love with the sound of it either.

  I bought a couple of nylon acoustics - one for a friend who want me to teach them to play and the other for me to have to take places where I wouldn't want to take a good guitar - camping, picnics etc.

  Machine heads (for tuning) appear stiff enough and have central screws for tightening if needed later. Tuned okay and as strings stretch-in they seem to be able to hold tuning. They have red and blond. Nylon-string models includes a pick-guard which is probably a good idea. Varnish finish looks fine albeit a little thinner than I'd like on joins meaning you'll need to avoid too much sweaty contact where right arm leans on the edge-joint of the lower part of the top-board with the side. Action is good and fret board and frets look fine too. Sound quality matches the price.

  Overall very good value. If buying for a beginner I strongly recommend nylon strings rather than steel strings.

  Also: mic-stands look quite well made and good value. The tripod legs on the music-stands seem less stable.

  No semi acoustics left when I dropped by Auburn NSW an hour ago.

  Anybody else aware of stock elsewhere in Sydney Metro?

  Very happy with Aldi electric.
  My 2 kids (11 and 8) have been learning on an Aldi electric ($50 unboxed bargain) for the past year.
  They get weekly lessons. I keep asking the teacher if I should upgrade and he says the Aldi is doing fine.

  OT. Consider Rocksmith Xbox/PC console game to make practice and learning fun
