Readers asked us: Which keyboard or guitar should I buy for my child?
It seems like there are so many options out there, but if you’re not a player yourself, how does a parent even begin to choose which instrument is best for their child that’s starting to play?
We asked Bassline Pro’s Shmuel Bassman and Yisroel Meir Rowner what they recommend their beginner keyboard and guitar students buy.
They filled us in on the great choices in different price ranges, along with the pros and cons of each pick. So, whether your child is just trying music out or is in it for the long run, there’s a good option below.
All the guitars below are full size guitars. This is the general rule for what size guitar to choose:
- 1/2 sized: 5-7 years old.
- 3/4 sized: 7-9 years old.
- Full sized: 10 years and older.
For the best prices and more guidance, Shmuel recommends buying your instruments from David Hopstein from Keynote Music Tel. (800) 666-2024 music.keynotemusic@gmail.com For the smaller guitars, please be in touch with Keynote for options.
