MAX GigKit Junior - 3/4 Sunburst Electric Guitar Set with Amplifier and Accessories
The Max GigKit Junior in Sunburst finish is the perfect gateway to the world of rock and modern music for aspiring young guitarists. Meticulously designed to offer a comfortable and authentic learning experience, this kit is not a toy, but a real instrument in miniature, ideal for small hands and budding musicians. This all-in-one pack eliminates the uncertainty of buying separate accessories, providing everything needed to start playing right away.
This guitar stands out for its iconic double-cutaway design (Strat style), renowned worldwide for its ergonomics and versatility. As a 3/4 scale model, the neck length and string tension are adapted so that children between 8 and 12 years old can form chords and play notes without the excessive effort required by a full-size instrument. The classic Sunburst finish gives it a professional and timeless look that will inspire students to pick up the instrument again and again.
The sonic heart of this kit is its included 20-watt amplifier . Despite its compact size, perfect for practicing in bedrooms without disturbing the neighbors, it delivers surprisingly high-quality tone. From clean, crystalline sounds ideal for pop or learning melodies, to the gritty distortion needed for classic rock riffs, this amplifier allows you to explore a variety of musical genres thanks to its intuitive EQ controls.
Main Features of the Instrument

Benefits of the GigKit Junior Pack
This kit has been designed with parents' peace of mind and student motivation in mind. The main benefit is immediacy : right out of the box, the student has a tuner, cable, picks, and strap. There are no hidden costs or need for additional trips to the music store.
Furthermore, the 3/4 size is not only beneficial due to its physical dimensions, but also because of the reduced string tension . This is crucial in the early stages, as beginners' fingertips are often sensitive; lower tension makes playing easier and prevents early frustration, encouraging longer and more enjoyable practice sessions.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to buy a separate cable to connect the guitar?
No, the kit includes a 3-meter long guitar connection cable, which is long enough to move around comfortably while playing connected to the amplifier.
Is the guitar suitable for adults?
Although ergonomically designed for children, many adults use it as a travel or practice guitar due to its portability. However, for an adult looking to learn seriously, a standard 4/4 size would be recommended, unless they have very small hands.
