Thanks everyone for your thoughts on Caty's Great Adventure!! ;-)

I think we'll leave it up to her which type of string she wants to play. But, she does a fair job of making chords on the mandolin already.

So far, I've heard both good and bad opinions of the Baby Taylors. Has anyone played any of the other half size models?

All the best, Áine

(PS -- Caty's already picked out her guitar strap out of one of Dear Hubby's guitar gear catalogues! Would you believe that they make one with dinosaurs on it!?!)
