The amplifier is small, but perfect for practicing- also has a headphone jack so you can plug in and not bother anyone. Has a distortion button, so you can rock out as well.
The tuner is pretty nifty- Just make sure you set it to "G" (for guitar) when tuning- the different little letters on the bottom of the tuner are for different instruments NOT different keys (i.e. G-guitar, V-Violin, U-Ukulele, etc...)
The gig bag is basic, lightly padded. Seems to do the job pretty well.
The free lessons are rather useless if you ask me. I signed up to check them out, most of the songs you have to pay extra for. You can find plenty of tutorials on youtube, or tabs on the internet to teach yourself songs. Or simply take lessons in person.
I highly recommend this player pack to anyone looking to start learning guitar, or get back into it after a hiatus.
It's been decades since I've played but it's something I've wanted to do again for some time. I've been retired for a year and a half.
I did a lot of research, viewed many many reviews and found the negative ones to be staged and kind of like false positives. One guy gives a Strat high marks but it needs a $100.00 worth of work on the neck and ranks the LP 2 ok. Another guy opens the box and immediately notices a lose tuner on the LP 2. BS! Most reviews are good and those are the one's you need to focus on.
My Player Pack was received in perfect condition and plays great. All I had to do was read the enclosed booklet, download some free player info and tune. Looks and plays great. I have not changed the strings and my fingers are toughening up. The strap. tuner, and amp work just fine.
Paid $219.00 complete thru Amazon and it took one week. Couldn't be happier
The amp is crap. Plugging headphones into it for silent play is even crappier. I would recommend getting the guitar itself (goes for around 180 new) with a separate, better amp.

The amp is good enough for practice, but you'd probably want to pick up something better even for that. It sounds okay clean, but the overdrive isn't much use. The strap is nothing fancy, but it works well. The chromatic tuner works pretty well, but the battery contacts aren't very good -- it took some fiddling to get it to work and it still needs a tap or two to get it going sometimes when the display starts to flicker. The gig bag is a tight fit, and not padded; it doesn't offer much protection for the guitar, but at least it gives you a handle and a shoulder strap. The free online lessons are not worth bothering with. They don't cover much, and seem to be just intended to promote the paid lessons.
Basically, the accessories are good enough to get started, but not much better. The guitar itself is good, for the money, but it's worth considering buying the guitar separately and choosing your own accessories.
