I was looking for a 3/4 electric guitar for my 8 year old grandson. Initially, I had a Fender Mini and the Ibanez micro in mind, but then decided for the Rocktile. In the end because it is much cheaper and has good reviews in tests. I thought that I would send it back if we were not satisfied with it. However, I must say that the part surprised me positively. The guitar looks good and high quality. I could not find any serious defects. The neck is straight, the string action was fine. The tremolo lever I have not even mounted, is not for children and would only lead to unnecessary detuning. I adjusted the pickups, in this case turned them up, which was done in 3 minutes with a scalloped screwdriver. I was able to tune it to standard E with no problem, with the strings buzzing slightly. If that bothers you, you can tune it to A, my grandson doesn't care.The guitar now sounds almost like a big one and is really fun.
My grandson is happy! For the price - I got it on sale for 79.-, clear buy recommendation! Best regards!

After a long search we came across this Rocktile 3/4 electric guitar and were thrilled by the price and ordered it right away. And lo and behold... For our purposes completely sufficient, good sound and good workmanship (I mean, he plays the child size not a lifetime). However, for adults, the electric guitar is apparently not so suitable, for that they are probably just too soft. (is also for children, but as a dad you try it of course times :-) )

We tested various models for our 9-year-old daughter:
The Fender Squier and Ibanez models failed for us, are really hard to play on or were constantly out of tune.
I can highly recommend the Jackson JS1X for children aged 12 and over, it is very solidly made and has slightly better tuners. In my opinion, it's the best short scale in terms of value for money. However, the guitar was simply too big for our child.
So in the end we chose the Rocktile:
Positive:
+ Passable sound
+ Can be played really well once it is set up correctly
Negative:
- The tuners are the biggest weakness. Tuning the guitar is a bit strenuous, but then the guitar holds its tune very well for 1-2 hours while playing and then only goes slightly out of tune. If you accept that the tuners are a bit tricky and that you always have to retune the guitar slightly before playing, the child can have a lot of fun with the instrument.
- The guitar was very badly set up when it arrived. You should therefore only buy this guitar if you already have some experience with electric guitars or have someone in your circle of friends who can set it up properly.
