Second go round of trying to learn. I tried a couple of years ago to learn.......didn't work out. This time a little more patients and dedication. Also I have a five year old son who wants Santa to bring him an electric guitar. I've been surfing around and found a Johnson 1/2 or 3/4 size with amp, strap and case for about 179.00. Any thoughts on this guitar and size? Who knows maybe he can learn and teach the old man.

If you wan't to get him a really smoking electric guitar for not too much$$, you can snatch up an agile off e-bay for 200$ and get a Traynor practice amp for almost nothing... Ebay is your friend, at least most of the time.

Also if you could link the Johnson I will tell you what I think of it. I guess if your kids only 5 years old an agile might be overdoing it a bit, but thats for you to decide.

This link should work

I would assume for a 5 year old this would be a good guitar, since I imagine it will get beat around alot. The pup's will probably be noisy, but nothing a 5 year old is gonna notice. I would say its a safe bet, I may worry about the quality of the electronic components though.
