I played a daisy rock guitar for a laugh before i bought my last guitar and they are designed with super thin necks as most girls have smaller hands. I wasnt impressed with the sound too much , although its ideal as a little starter guitar. I spent about 8 hours picking my guitar purely because its all about the feel, i dont even like the colours of my guitar, but that dont matter as the second i picked it up i knew it was the one for me. If its poppy punk ur playing id just get yourself a strat, a fat strat if u have a few quid.

Those guitars are so stupid-looking. What I find most ridiculous, though, is the fact people think girls need to have different kind of guitars than guys.
Think of yourself as a musician first! Just play a normal guitar.

i like daisy rock guitars. i don't have one, but i'd like one....
they make "normal" shaped guitars now too, but still with the thinner necks. i think it's a good idea, because it's a fact that most girls DO have smaller hands - it's not a bad thing, or a putdown, it's just a fact.

I think smaller scale guitars are really helpful, especially for younger players, and men and women with smaller hands.
I tried learning on my grandpa's huge Fender dreadnaught, and finally made some real progress when my grandmother bought me a MUCH smaller Yamaha at a pawn shop for 30 buck$.
However, they do make smaller guitars that do not look like flowers. I don't mind the Daisies, but I would not choose one for myself, because that's not my style. But hey, whatever works I'll use it!
Rock thee on, mine chickadees!

Please don't buy into that marketing crap-Find a good guitar without the damn flowers. There are plenty of men who play incredibly with tiny hands- I don't mean to be coarse-just tired OH yeah suggestions--try some Danelectros

I don't like the idea of Daisy Rock guitars anyway. It seems like 'well you can't play normal guitars cause your hands are to small so we'll stick you up in a heart shaped guitar and make you look cute'. It just doesn't seem right. I feel it's so sort of saying you can't play normal guitars. I see it as a misogynistic insult on feminism. I love Fender Jaguars. Personally, I think they are the best guitars follwed secondly by the Fender strats. Yeah I'm a Fender girl.

I play a Daisy Rock bass. I chose the black heart. I personally think it looks cool no matter what everyone else thinks. It's good for a beginner like me (who has tiny hands) but basically I think an advanced player would say it sucks. The strings broke right away and pearly plastic under the pick ups is peeling. I feel like I wasted my money.

Hello to all. My name is Joey and I am a player and a collector. Anyway, I own a Daisy Rock Artist (Shaped like a heart, two pick-ups) and this thing has one of the best rhythm sounds I have ever heard. As for the bridge pick-up (Seymour Duncan) this thing rips! I like this guitar quite a bit, and I play it frequently in live situations as well as recording. Yes, it does have a short scale, but anyone can get used to that. Don’t forget, John Lennon played a short-scaled Rickenbacker and he did okay with it. These are well made, and Tish, the woman who started Daisy Rock knows me well.

If you want a guitar that has a smaller body and slim fretboard I suggest you look into the ones that Fender have made, not Daisy rock guitars. ;D

i have a daisy rock guitar the rock candy in atomic pink. the daisy rock guitar i have is a les paul shaped guitar i think it sounds good and I DON'T think it's a put down to make guitars for girls you should think of it like this if a heart shaped guitar can get a 8 or 9 year old to play it should be looked at as a good thing

thinner necks???
I have a mid-60's classical guitar(those have necks more than twice the size of standard electrics)and my hand fits all of the way across the neck...oh...and most 12 year old girls have hands larger than mine...don't get some lame guitar because it is "easy"
learn to play on an acoustic with a real neck and then go to electric...you will be better for it in the long run....oh...and play until your fingers bleed

My first guitar was a Squier, and my opinion is that it was a great instrument for beginners. The neck is thin and the guitar really easily played. If children and men with small hands can figure out how to play a "regular" guitar, any woman/girl can as well.
