I have been a guitar tutor for more than 100 students since last 5 years, i have been always recommending pluto to my students, cant deny the fact that there many more guitars which are way better than pluto, but the only thing where pluto stands out is its very reasonable compared to other brands. Since all these years i have noticed that not every one would invest a lot as a beginner. So pluto is always recommended. Since they dont compromise with the quality though the price is very affordable.
