Review: Easy to assemble - COMES COMPLETE WITH ALL THE NECESSARY PARTS. THE PARTS IN THE KIT LOOKS BETTER THAN THOSE I PURCHASED ASSEMBLED.
Review: Fun, easy, conversation starter! - Super fun kit! I play several instruments, including ukulele and mountain dulcimer. Since I was already familiar with the dulcimer style fretboard, I decided to get one. It took probably 30-40 minutes to assemble, and the instructions were easy to follow. Unfortunately I broke the first string almost immidiately. They send 2 stings, however, so I strung it back up and it was good for about a week. The second string broke so I stole heavier guitar string from my wife's backup strings, and installed that. Now it's held up quite nicely and it's a great little instrument. Lightweight, folksy sound, and always gets tons of reactions. If you want to learn a stringed instrument, but don't want to learn (or cant) chords, this is about as easy as they come! Fyi, since this has a metal string, you'll still have to develop calluses on your fingertip.
