Half guitars are intended for children aged 6 to 8 years and whose body height is between 110 to 140 cm. Apart from a smaller body and shorter neck, half-size classical guitars are generally no different from full-size (4/4) guitars. This type of classical guitar is ideal for beginner players who need a lightweight and compact instrument that makes it easier for them to learn basic techniques without putting unnecessary strain on their fingers and hands.
They are a great choice for children who want to learn the basics of playing the guitar and for those interested in playing at music schools. This type of guitar is greatly popular at the beginning of children's musical careers who want to master the correct technique without feeling frustrated by the size of the instrument.
There are also smaller or larger sizes, such as quarter, three-quarter, and full guitars, which are suitable for different ages.
