yeah yeah, its not a $100+ guitar, but if you got a kid wanting to learn, and dont want to break the bank because he kicks ass a guitar hero, and thinks he can just pick up one of these and start shredding, finds out he sucks and will take work, Id much rather have this collecting dust.

only costs a few bucks at a music store to get it tuned in right.

a few dollars more, but it's full-sized and comes with case, extra strings, and a tuner.

Keep the comments to the guitar in hand. If you don't have anything positive to say, stay out of the thread.

If you have a concern that the nylon threads might be a concern, state why. Don't say "I can imagine how badly this guitar sucks/sounds, etc".

I have removed the two threadcrapping comments.

In for one.
I'm neither a beginner nor seasonal player.

At the risk of thread-crapping, I should probably remind everyone that guitars like this are really terrible. You may be thinking that they're okay for a beginner, but they're really not. They will be impossible to tune, and so anything you play will sound, well, out-of-tune. They're probably also miniaturized to some degree, which means you can pick up bad habits in fingering which will not fly for an actual guitar. So even forgetting more serious-minded concerns like tonality, the guitars like this are likely to be simply unplayable.

If you really can't afford the $100 to get a basic guitar from musiciansfriend.com, then try finding one used on craigslist.
