Need guitar advice

youi say your daughter is 7? Her interests will change by the minute at that age so so Gibson axes ! If near a guitar center they always have starter Fender Squire Strat kits ready to go for just this situation. they do make a smaller "bullet" model but it I'd stay away from the kiddie size stuff. Stay away from the junk that Target, ToysRUs sell. A basic Fender strat will do her just fine. You sure you are gonna go electric. The starter sets usually come with a small Fender amp.

Here is a link to the kit. No choice of colors though, but you can put stickers on it instead or something.

Remember there are also acoustic guitars.

oops - here is the link.

Crap, just read it closer. You want acoustic. Colors will be available, but only in the junk guitars. If you want a good, small guitar, you cannot go wrong with the Little Martin acoustic. Small and stays in tune forever. I have one and it is great, loud and perfect. Around $280. She could keep this one forever too.

Couldn't go wrong with either one of these, IMO.

and it comes with one of the best gig bags you will ever find.....

Just wanted to give advice on 2 very reliable guitars. Resisted the temptation to suggest something low end as many kids have lost interest on an instrument that wont' stay in tune, etc. If its a hassle to play, then its hard to stick with it.

but as long as your kid is interested in music, then it really does not matter what she plays, as long as she plays.
