Everything You Need to Get Started Playing Guitar!
This fantastic starter set is perfect for beginners! Whether in music class, band rehearsal, live on stage, or around the campfire: the AS-861 brings joy everywhere. Only carefully selected materials are used for AS-861 guitars. The laminated top and body produce a beautiful, warm tone, and the precisely crafted bridge transmits string vibrations even with a gentle finger touch down to the smallest detail. The smooth tuning machines also ensure optimal tuning stability.
Classic Look
The AS-861 stands out visually with its light natural top and dark tinted body. The elaborately crafted rosette, the beautiful decorated tuning machines, and the understated headstock complete the overall look.
Which Guitar Size Is Right?
The scale length indicates the size of a guitar—or more precisely the vibrating string length between nut and bridge. The standard scale length is 650 mm and corresponds to a 4/4 guitar. All other sizes are smaller and are therefore recommended for children and teenagers.
Our Recommendations for the Scale Length Matching Age and Height:
| 1/4 Size | Age 4 to 7 years | Height up to 110 cm | Scale length approx. 47-49 cm |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1/2 Size | Age 5 to 9 years | Height 110 to 130 cm | Scale length approx. 53-55 cm |
| 3/4 Size | Age 8 to 11 years | Height 120 to 140 cm | Scale length approx. 59-62 cm |
| 7/8 Size | Age 10 to 13 years | Height 130 to 150 cm | Scale length approx. 62-63 cm |
