It looks nice, but straight out of the box it was set up so badly that it was almost the worst guitar I have ever played.
Hours of messing with it have made it into something that can be played nicely.
This should have been done at the factory.
Now that it is set up it is a good guitar for the money
It will most likely need to be taken to the guitar shop for a professional setup unless you know what you are doing.
That will cost you about 80 to 100
The guitar produces a quality clear sound .I recommend this to other guitar lovers.The strings are superb too
Perfect for beginners, and brilliant value for money. Bought for my 12 year old budding guitarist who absolutely loves it. Thankfully the amp doesn’t go as loud as her hero Marty McFly’s does, but gives a decent sound.
Received the Rockjam guiter kit very quickly before prescribed delivery date.
Opened up the kit and found everything in good condition except some of the strings were duplicated on the guitar.
Contacted Rockjam directly who responded to my emial the same day and sent out replacement strings which arrived 2 days later.
Top service from Rockjam and would recommend the company and the guitar.
10/10 for customer satisfactio
he amp cable is not working so i bought a new cable and it works although the sound is not that dirty for the amp.
Arrived swiftly with no damage. All worked and extremely good guitar for a beginner. Exceptional amount of extra items such as the mini amp, case etc can’t fault it for the price.

Amazing starter kit for beginners my son loves it good value for the money
Mon fils voulait une guitare lectrique, mais comme tout bon ado, je ne suis pas sre qu’il continue l’utiliser donc je ne voulais pas dpenser une somme astronomique.
Je trouve ce compromis parfait, la guitare est de bonne qualit, de bonne taille (mon fils mesure + d’1m80) et surtout, elle ne fait pas ‘jouet’. Un petit bmol pour l’ampli qui grsille normment quand on branche le casque (option de rve pour le reste de la maisonne, mais malheureusement, vu le grsillement trs inconfortable, il ne l’utilise pas).
Bref, je recommande pour les dbutants et les amateurs.
Its a nice gear. Little humm sound can be heard due to improper earthing and isolation of pickup’s. Action is very optimum but you need to optimize it more for better results. You’ll need little experience with guitar mechanisms to intonate every string. Whammy bar works but i found it little bit harder. Amp is of 10watt power with clean and loud sound. Amp has distortion in built.
Is it for Beginners: Yes
Is this value for money: Yes
Pros:
You can start playing it the right after opening the box, you get all the accessories you need to begin with. It doesn’t feel cheap when you use it.
Cons:
You’ll most probably see some dents at places or you may not depends upon your luck and the amplifier is not that good but still you can use it as a learners but after you can atleast play the chords perfectly I would reccommend getting a better amplifier.
Excellent purchase. This guitar does not disappoint. Highly recommended for a complete beginner.
This is my son’s first electric guitar, as it was reasonably priced and has good reviews I was happy for him to spend his birthday money on it. It is really good quality and great sound, he is really pleased with it.
Just received my new Rock Jam electric guitar. Up to now, I have only ever played an acoustic guitar, which sounds great but you have to be very precise with your finger placement. So I wanted to see if it was right that an electric is easier to play.
These are my first impressions:
Having looked at a number of reviews, I was slightly concerned as to whether I has made the right decision. And I believe I have. The guitar is well finished and looks very good.
Some said that the frets were very rough. But I was impressed that they were nice and smooth.
I then tuned it in using the same app as for my acoustic.
Not difficult and so far it has held its tune.
I was also worried about the amplifier. But it looks like it has been revised because the buttons were on an angled face. There is a slight buzz but not a problem.
You need to get used to balancing the volume and tone on the guitar as well as the 5 way selector and the various dials on the amplifier.
Even at this very early stage, I have to say that I am pretty impressed with the package.
Looks really good and sounds clear as well.
I will update this review after a few more weeks.
And if anyone is in any doubts about this guitar, don’t worry. It really is great value for money.
My daughter loved her birthday present.
We had a slight issue with the amplifier but a raised it with the company on a Friday and on Monday we had a new amp delivered.
Really good customer services and a positive experience all round

was happy with it when i got it but there is something rattling inside,probably because the way it was delivered..other than that i can’t really say anything bad

Nota successiva: il lavoro di ottavatura (regolazione delle molle delle sellette per fare in modo da ottenere la nota al 12mo tasto perfettamente accordata all’ottava superiore) mi ha richiesto di bloccare il ponte mobile: l’ottavatura perfetta solo alla massima contrazione delle molle che con la tensione delle corde non si riesce ad ottenere; ho quindi fatto quello che viene consigliato anche per le chitarre blasonate, ho inserito un tacco di legno a bloccare il ponte. ovviamente questo ottenibile sostituendo le molle con molle pi efficienti o mettendone 5 o 4 invece che le solo 3 in dotazione, ma il ponte predisposto per tre molle (occorrerebbe aprire i fori nel metallo, cosa abbastanza semplice, ma non ne avevo voglia). vi racconto tutto questo per fare capire che se la vostra prima elettrica (come normale per il prezzo che cercate) non potete pensare di spendere poco e anche cavarvela da soli senza sapere con cosa avete a che fare. dare indietro non risolve i problemi, i problemi si affrontano e si risolvono (come per le blasonate).
Por el precio que tiene no est mal aunque las pas podran ser de mejor calidad y el amplificador es realmente malo tambin podran incluir unas cuerdas de ms calidad preferira gastar un poco ms pero que por lo menos las pas y las cuerdas sean de mejor calidad . Para empezar esta bien pero si eres un poco ms avanzado o vienes de una guitarra acstica recomiendo comprar algo de mejor calidad como una Yamaha pacifica y un amplificador de mejor calidad
This is a great starter set for somebody younger, or somebody on a budget. You get everything you need to start included in the box, including the amp, multiple picks and strap for the guitar.
The reason I’m giving this 4 stars is, despite the low cost, I was overall unhappy with amp and guitar. I couldn’t add the distortion sounds I wanted with the included amp so had to buy my own one anyway, which set me back 60. With the included amp, it just sort of sounds like an acoustic guitar that’s being amplified with no distortion. This took away from the value of course. I was happy to keep the kit anyway as it was still very cheap, however the hum from the guitar was too much for me so ultimately I ended up returning it as I know I will be playing for some time now and decided to invest in something a little more expensive.
Very good product but there was a slight buzz on my E string
great for bigmans jk lol xd hahahahahahaa
no really it’s good if your interested in trying out an electric guitar due to the fact it’s not very expensive you wouldn’t have made that large a loss if you didn’t like it.
nice feel
strings are medium but that’s expected
comes with amp which is really cool
worthy of 5 stars

The e-string was broken and the stuff was out of the packets. Even the main packing was basic which seemed it was a return item. But once I changed the string and adjusted the strings. Sounds good.. value for money.. am not replacing this..
When I discovered that are correct but the menu for then only said for beginners when I would of preferred a full size. Just for the same price .

As a beginner I can say it’s great for the price. Came with an amp, a guitar, an extra set of strings and a bag. Everything you need to get started out of the box.
The set up was fine for a beginner too. I didn’t know anything about set up when I bought it but once I learned I didn’t have to make many adjustments to improve my comfort level.
I’ve changed strings twice since I bought it (first time was because someone told me stock strings are no good and you should always just put new strings on a new guitar, second time is because I wanted to try a different gauge) and it holds a tune very well – – even after pretty liberal use of the tremelo bar.
Only real complaint is that the frets are sharp. I have a second guitar and the difference between the two fretboards is very noticeable.
This was my granddaughters Christmas present and she is over the moo

Great guitar for my son who has now progressed from classic to electric.
globalement, la production est ok. je recommande qu’un initi la prpare pour un dbutant. elle n’est pas livr rgl..
hauteur de micro, hauteur d’action, truss rod, intonation, whammy bar/bridge sont rgler.. dans mon cas… une bonne heure de rglage avant de la ceder au petit.
Au final la touche est assez haute (dommage pour un dbutant) notamment car le manche/frets sont de qualit moyenne. Mais bon ca reste un pour rapport qualit prix… pour un truc qui finira oubli dans un coin 🙂
I’ve given this quite a high rating, because other than a few issues, this guitar set is perfect.
I’ve had mine for four years now, and it’s served me pretty well. The only issue (S) I would warn potential buyers about is that…
1. When I first got this guitar and went to tune it, the high E machine head/tuning peg, after a few turns, wouldn’t move anymore. My guitar teacher resolved this issue by restringing it, but instead of putting the string in the right side of the peg, he inserted it in the left instead. Granted, the tuning peg still won’t turn very well, but I can at least achieve standard tuning now.
2: This was my first amp I’ve ever brought, so I’m not sure whether this is actually normal or not, but I’ve found it sounds quite “buzzy” if that makes sense? Like, there’s a lot of static.
Other than this, the guitar itself is awesome (once you fix the tuning peg issue)!! Not too sure about the amp, but everything else is good.

ONLY ONE FLAT BOX DELIVERED.
IT SEAMS TO NARROW FOR THE AMPLIFIER TO FIT . IS THIS NORMAL ?
La guitare, le pack est parfait pour debuter, elle sonne plutt bien et elle est belle. Beaucoup de grsillement avec l’ampli.
Je vais essayer de contacter le service client pour voir si on peut faire quelque chose u peut-tre investir dans une autre mini ampli.
La guitarra en si me llego rapido y perfectamente embalada, sin uso ni roces. No es la pera, pero no es de mala calidad, aparenta. Eso si, bastante desajustada en practicamente todo… El cable es de juguete. Sin embargo, informandote por la red si eres un poco manitas, la puedes dejar muy decente sin gastar nada mas que tu tiempo (bueno y otro cable de mas calidad).
Hay que comprender que es un kit muy barato para principiantes, pero totalmente recomendable precisamente por eso, para coger habilidad sobra incluso desajustada y para meterte en el mundillo y compender como funciona y cacharrear en ella. Si se te pasa la tonteria pues la cuelgas de adorno. Y si te va el mundillo pues te dara una idea de que guitarra comprar en un futuro sin miedo a equivocarte o a romperla. A mi la verdad es que me ha viciado sin tenerlo en mente… Y si no fuese por el precio, nunca la hubiese comprado…
guitar is nice in this price range, finishing is really good but the amplifier is the worst one, when you increase the gain and volume nob you will hear a undesirable sound.
The only thing I didn’t like about this guitar were the strings that came with it. Please keep R. Meldrum at the top he is brilliant. I received mine for $104.00. I did all the tests recommended and everything was perfect. I bought the recommended strings ( Two pair $13.00 ). What! I strung with said strings and freaking wow. Many years ago I played metal. The 80s. But I was always a big fan of Keith Richards. This guitar is allowing me the sound and the tuning’s to learn and play Keith. If somehow you receive a scratch and dent make them replace it. I understand frustration but man do not give this thing up it is an affordable gem. The other day I was at Corona Calif. City Building the city where they make Fender. There was a Fender Tele in a case showing city pride. I studied it. This guitar is it. For the price and some new strings I recommend highly.
I’m in the terminal stages of my 30’s and know nothing about music beyond “guitars go bwang and drums go bang.” I’ve wanted to learn how to play an instrument, and the quarantine was the perfect opportunity to learn.
I would recommend this guitar if you’re not sure you are going to follow through with a commitment to learn how to play. The sound quality is so-so, but I don’t mind because I don’t play with the amp the majority of the time so as not to bother my family. The rare day I find myself alone in the house I pour a stiff drink and crank up the amp. As stated previously, the sound quality isn’t great but after a drink I don’t really care.
My guitar ironically came with a few scratches on the pick guard. The box was in tact so I’m not sure how that happened. If I’d dropped big bucks I would have been upset, but whatever.
I’m planning on upgrading in a few months, but for an absolute beginner I think this is a great guitar to start with.
I bought this for my 17 year old brother and he loves it i got the sunburst and it looks really nice all parts work perfect and hes got a little room so it was a plus that the amp was small

Pour autant, la finition est moyenne (mcaniques, pickguard, chevalet, boutons… font vraiment cheap), et sur la mienne la corde de sol grsille la premire frette. J’ai essay tous les rglages possibles sans succs. J’imagine qu’il va falloir changer le sillet. En attendant, c’est particulirement irritant !
A titre personnel, je l’ai achete pour dcouvrir l’univers de la guitare lectrique aprs 30 ans de guitare acoustique. Je m’en sers essentiellement pour faire mes exercices silencieusement (au casque) et ce titre je ne suis pas du. C’est un bon compagnon d’entranement, facile transporter (format compact) et agrable jouer tout moment du jour et de la nuit.
Les accessoires livrs avec la guitare sont totalement dprimants : l’ampli crachote et souffle, le sac (mal cousu) n’est pas du tout rembourr, les mdiators ont du tre dcoups dans des pots de yaourt, …. oublier.
Vous n’utiliserez pas cette guitare (et encore moins les accessoires) pour enregistrer un cd professionnel. Mais, si vous cherchez un instrument sans prtention, transporter partout et mettre entre toutes les mains, mme de jeunes joueurs, elle peut faire l’affaire.
This is a good guitar for starters. The black ones were sold out when I placed the order, so opted for a red one, yet I received a balk one – just keep that in mind. The set is not expensive but also not the cheapest we could find. It is well produced and looks the part. Also it comes complete with an amplifier stings, picks. The guitar holds nice and feels heavy. In short I was very pleased with it when it arrived. Even impressed. But I’m sure more experienced rockers will find its design crude perhaps lacking some elegance (mock the plastic appearance of the plastic and button/dials), and the miniature amplifier lacking wattage. But it is more than adequate for our purposes and then I need. I assume for anyone who want to learn electric gutta plain .
I should say that with our family I’m the only one who is a very modest acoustical guitar player, knowing a decent selection of vital chords and able to play a wide range of songs with that, (form sheet) but I’m an guitar autodidact an certainly do not master any of the more advanced skills, as I never had much time to practice. Yet my wife has been learning to play this guitar as well as did my oldest daughter.
I snapped one of the strings during the initial tuning but this was easily replaced with the included spare set.
Can’t really fault it and would recommend for beginning players and children.
It’s definitely not high quality but for the price and what you get it’s a pretty good deal.
Good kit for a beginner like me ,has everything needed to start learning the electric guitar. Included amp only really sounds good on headphones as it is not very powerful but for this price it’s ok. As a beginner’s kit it would have been good to have a tuner included but there are plenty of inexpensive ones around.
The guitar was easy to set up and use for a novice
The amp lead didn’t fit properly in the hole and kept popping out – looking at other reviews it seems to be a common theme/issue
We purchased another lead for around 5 from amazon and it fitted and worked perfectly
For the money it’s a really good bit of ki
his package came with every needed for learning the guita
This is a really nice guitar. I have been a casual guitarist over the years with serious guitarist friends handing me down their used guitars. This was not only my first electric but also my very first guitar and it does the job pretty well. The whammy bar is a lill tight and amp has this annoying buzz. Will prob pair the guitar with a Katana or a fender to check if it sounds better. But its a great first buy.
Pretty good for a beginner. I recommend getting a tuner with it. Or at least a tuner app. I’ll change my strings once I’m a little better.
I received my guitar and amp today. All was as advertised. It seems very nice. The guitar is fully stringed and ready to be tuned. No problem tuning. It has a real nice feel to it, solid and attractive. The strings are at a perfect distance from the fret board for ease of playing and is adjustable if not just right. It came with everything you need to be playing in a few minutes of unpacking setting up and tuning. To tune I use an app on my iphone, but could also use my piano or keyboard. This whole setup is inexpensive but not cheap. It comes with extra strings, picks, chord to plug the guitar into the amp and allen wrenches for adjustment. They even have a set up for two months of free lessons. So far I couldn’t be happier or more impressed. UPDATE: this guitar has become my favorite as it continues to look, feel, and work well.
Other half was like a little kid when he got this. Extremely good value for money highly recommend to all

Started on guitar with this and it has been great. Wanted something affordable, just in case it was just a whimsical fad and was not disappointed by this instrument. Will upgrade soon when I’m a bit better, but as a beginner, it has been perfec
Amazing guitar for my three year old. He is absolutely in love with it. For his age and experience well worth his. His musically talented father even enjoyed a rip on it. Fantastic value.
I would recommend this guitar combo to anyone just starting their path as a guitar player. Rock on!
Good value for the money. Seems to sound pretty good.
When I got the guitar it came in a fresh box Very very new . I love this guitar sooo much . The amp is good for beginners . The guitar comes with a couple of extra bits in which is helpful like strings and a guitar strap and other items . It is definitely an amazing guita

Bought for my daughter for Christmas ..She loves it! Very good value and quality …
Turned up well packaged as expected. Guitar looks lovely. Good starting point for a beginner. If someone gets the guitar bug, they’ll want to upgrade the amp pretty quickly, but happy with the product.
Brought with the learn to play on PS4 that it’s comparable with. Teenage son was made up fab guita

The sound is not the good one but worth it as a beginne
What I liked about the guitar as it looks realistic like a expensive guitar but cheaper the amp was a little on the cheapside but what do you want for a free amp with guita
Pour apprendre jouer la guitare lectrique.J’aime le format parce que je n’ai pas les doigts trs longs .C’est une guitare pour junior mais elle me satisfait bien.La guitare est un peu fragile et l’amplificateur n’est pas trs puissant.
The amp could be better. But for the price it’s really good for beginners.
This is a great guitar for beginners, the sound quality is great and the value of money is more than amazing.
Overall, great guitar!

Everything you need to get started, and see if you like playing guitar, and to practice.
Amazing deal! Especially because I could barely see the scratches, was a lovely thing to buy as I spent my time in a caravan most of the summer with it! Sounded unsure about its self sometimes and no matter how many times or different methods of tuneing I would try the sound would never quite get there, still unsure why, finally being reunited with it after 3 months in a few days! Rock on!! (hopefully)

E’ arrivata con notevole ritardo rispetto a quanto previsto, ma arrivata! Acquistata tramite una promozione (il classico blocca il prezzo e appena disponibile vi invieremo l’articolo), doveva arrivare dopo prima notifica di spedizione nell’arco di un mese ….dopo un p di solleciti tramite il servizio clienti Amazon….la chitarra arrivata con pi di 3 mesi di attesa dal momento dell’ordine (chi la dura la vince) !!!
Parliamo della chitarra e di cosa offre…allora io non sono un chitarrista professionista ma posso dirvi che esteticamente carina ed fatta anche discretamente bene per quello che la paghi (io l’ho acquistata a circa 50) ma quello con tutta sincerit vale poco di pi di quanto l’ho pagata! L’acustica non proprio il massimo e l’amplificatore non ha un suono ben strutturato……A chi la consiglierei? Allora la consiglierei al genitore che vuole fare una sorpresa al figlio …. nella speranza che questo si appassioni ad uno strumento e che quindi con il passare del tempo faccia un acquisto di maggior valore e che non finisca subito nel dimenticatoio a prender polvere…….la consiglierei a chi come me aveva lo “sfizio” di strimpellare dei pezzi per la quale la chitarra elettrica risulta necessaria….e quindi da utilizzare occasionalmente senza troppe pretese.
Sicuramente il pregio che offre in un solo acquisto tutto il necessario per iniziare 5 minuti dopo aver scartato tutto!
I’ve recorded with it and you can’t really tell if it’s one of this or a fender or what, specially if you own some good quality pedals.
If YOU are in fact a beginner do some research on YouTube about INTONATION. Change the factory strings because that’s what you do and ALWAYS tune your guitar. ALWAYS!!!!
ice guitar pack for the price shipping was super fast awesome
Bought as a Christmas present for our Grandson who was absolutely delighted. Good service.

Not an electric guitar expert, but feels and sound great. And doesn’t look to bad on me eithe
It was obviously used but this was as advertised in all fairness. The amp is a bit weak but it does the trick. Overall a great bargain and starter guitar.
Having played an acoustic guitar on and off for the last 25 years, I have never tried to play an electric guitar before, but have always wanted to learn.
This is great for a beginner like me – it comes with most things that you would hope for it to include.
Not only do you get the guitar itself, but you also get a little amp, a whammy bar, spare strings, plecturms, a strap and bag.
Now of all of the items included in the kit, the guitar is the best bit, as it well should be. The amp is a little bit lightweight, which is no real surprise when you realise that it is just 10 watts, but actually for learning and practising in your own home – this isn’t as important and when you are ready, you may well want to upgrade your amp and possibly your guitar!
The guitar itself looks good, isn’t too heavy, is pretty easy to play (once you get the hang of it) and it easy enough to tune. If the guitar is the star, what lets it down? The strap and the bag are horrible – I would suggest changing these straight away.
In my opinion this is a good starter set, but there appears to be a better set available on Amazon, for a lower price, but one which includes a stand, a tuner and a 20 watt amp – giving you more for your money and it is cheaper than this set at the time of writing – so it is well worth comparing the prices before you buy: RockJam Full Size Electric Guitar Superkit with Amp, Strings, Tuner, Strap, Case and Cable – Black
The guitar is a full sized Fender copy. I have handled and played a genuine Fender and this is significantly lighter than the real thing (which is no bad thing for a beginner). The finish is not of the highest quality and the gloss is a little scratched in places but the wood neck is genuine and it tunes up very nicely. Surprisingly, the guitar does hold its tune well. It has three pickups and 2 tone and a volume knob which work well to alter the quality of the sound. The guitar gives a very tinny sound through the supplied amp but through a larger guitar amp, does not sound bad at all. It is easy to pick and the action, although a little high for an electric, is really not too bad at all and does not rip up your fingers when playing.
It comes with a small amp. I initially thought that this was going to be delivered separately as I could not work out how it could possibly fit into the box. It was in there though – it is very slim with a single input. Although only 10 amps, it is certainly loud enough for practice and although the sound quality is not great, it does the job. Not for concert use obviously but great for starters and with volume and tone controls, you can’t go wrong.
The kit also comes with spare strings which is a good job as my thinnest string snapped when I started to tune the guitar. It was easy to replace and tuned perfectly. It also comes with picks, a cheap strap and a very cheap guitar bag with the Rockjam brand emblazened on it. The lead for connecting to the amp supplied is a little too short but they are very cheap on Amazon to buy.
The kit does not come with a stand which is a shame as you really do nee done. There is a great Rockjam guitar stand for under a tenner which does the job.
So, all in, this is a great started kit. Stylish and really good for kids who are dabbling in guitar. You get the whole kit without having to buy expensive separates.
I would thoroughly recommend this kid for starters. A serious guitarist would have to get something a little more serious in time but as an introduction without costing the earth, this is ideal!
