Max GigKit Junior - 1/4 Electric Guitar Set, Black, for Children's Beginners
The Max GigKit Junior is the ultimate gateway to rock for the youngest members of the family. Far from being just a toy, this kit has been meticulously designed to offer the authentic experience of playing a real instrument, but scaled down to a manageable size for boys and girls. With a glossy black finish and classic aesthetics that emulate the guitars on the biggest stages, this all-in-one pack removes the barriers to entry for budding musicians, providing everything they need to start playing from the moment they open the box.
Unlike plastic toy guitars, the electric guitar included in this kit is built with a solid body and a real wood neck, offering professional resonance and feel. Its 1/4 size is the perfect ergonomic size for children (generally between 4 and 7 years old), allowing their hands to comfortably reach the entire fretboard without straining their posture. Equipped with 21 frets and a working electronic system, it allows them to learn real notes, chords, and techniques that they can later transfer to a full-size guitar.
The set is completed with a 10-watt amplifier, designed to be compact and easy to use. Despite its small size, it offers enough power for practicing at home without disturbing the neighbors, yet with the necessary character to motivate the student. Thanks to its intuitive controls and portability, the young musician can take their "concert" to any room in the house.
