## Description

Shredders unite! This handmade Mini Electric Guitar has a built-in amp and speaker. The strings on this 320mm guitar can be installed and tuned the same way as a normal sized guitar. The built-in amp and speaker output a powerful distortion sound, and an external amp can also be connected with a standard 1/4" jack for clearer & better tones.
 
 Even includes a pick that allows for easy playing! All that's needed to assemble this kit is a Phillips screwdriver, everyday cellophane tape, pliers, and 2xAA batteries.
 
 While the instructions with this product come in Japanese, here is a downloadable [ English Manual](https://www.adafruit.com/datasheets/1832_e_guitar.pdf) so you can quickly set up your Mini Electric Guitar.
 
 Gakken is a Japanese publishing company founded in 1946. In the 1970s, they began selling educational toys, books, magazines, and electronic kits. Their kits are known for their smart design and relative ease of use and have a large cult following both in Japan and the United States.
