Empower Girls With Daisy Rock Guitars

Daisy Rock Guitars has made guitars with girls in mind. Up until now, guitars may seem cumbersome and awkward for girls go play. This may cause feelings in the girl that they are not capable of learning to play guitar. Thanks to this guitar line, things are different now.

The Daisy Rock guitars are made with sleeker necks and slimmer bodies which make playing easier for girls. They are lighter weight, but still made with high quality.

Being a mother of 2 daughters and a musician, I am happy there are guitars made to inspire my girls to play guitar and to learn music. Music helps develop the brain for math and sciences. It is related to critical thinking and problem solving. And, of course, makes a wonderful creative outlet so they can express emotions in a positive way.

These guitars were inspired by female musician, rocker and music lover, Tish Ciravolo. She combined her love of music with a desire to "level the playing field" for girls who want to learn to play guitar as well as dedicated female musicians. Tish began the Daisy Rock Guitars in 2000 with a dream that "every girl who wants to play guitar is welcomed and inspired to do so."

These instruments are not only for the beginner guitarist or young girl, they are used by professional musicians as well, both male and female. Some names you might recognize that use them are Joan Jett, Ann and Nancy Wilson from Heart, The Go-Go's Jane Wiedlin and Kathy Valentine and Vicki Peterson from the Bangles.

You will also find some men who use the Daisy Rock Guitars because of their uniqueness. Some musicians include Robert Smith of the Cure, Chris Stein from Blondie, The New York Dolls Sylvain Sylvainand and guitar player for Norah Jones, Adam Levy.

If you decide to check out the Daisy Rock guitars, keep in mind there are two lines; the Debutante line by Daisy Rock and the Daisy Rock line by Daisy Rock. Both high quality, but for two different players in mind.

The Debutante line is set at a smaller price scale and geared toward the younger and beginner female player. The guitars are smaller and you can even find a "short scale" guitar for even smaller bodies. These guitars come in both electric and acoustic guitars with beautiful designs to inspire the younger girl to want to play while maintaining quality.

The Daisy Rock line is geared toward the more seasoned player and musician. This line comes in a variety of electric guitars, acoustic guitars, bass guitars and even electric/acoustic.

Both lines come with the slimmer and narrow neckline easier for smaller hands to play. You will find humbucker pickups for multiple tones, pick-up selector switch, and master tone control and most have set-neck construction for durability.

If you are looking for a gift, check out the guitar packs. The acoustic guitar pack is called the Daisy Rock Debutante Junior Miss Acoustic. You get a smaller and more lightweight guitar with a slim neck, a tuner, guitar picks and guitar strap. The colors vary from Bubble Gum Pink, Cotton Candy Blue and Popsicle Purple.

The electric pack comes with the guitar, gig bag, electronic tuner, strap, picks, string winder, and polishing cloth. The guitars come is a variety with the most popular being the pink electric guitar called the Daisy Rock Debutante Rock Candy Princess in Atomic Pink. But you can also find this pack with the Heartbreaker Short Scale guitar (shaped like a heart) and the Debutante Butterfly Short Scale Guitar.

If you want to inspire your girls to learn music and play guitar, start with a guitar from this line that will inspire them to play. I know my daughters love their guitars and one of them walks around with the guitar strapped to her whether she is practicing or not. As a mom, this makes me happy and I know my girls will have an easier time sticking to their practice schedules. A big thank you from me, to Daisy Rock Guitars.
