A concert, like this CC-60s, is a bit brighter or sparklier, and again may be more comfortable for smaller people. I bought it a few years ago for my girlfriend, who enjoys it as a campfire/travel/beater guitar.
Are you the beginner? I generally recommend beginners start with an electric guitar as they're physically easier to play, quieter (you can practice with headphones), and because cheap electrics are typically better quality than cheap acoustics.
Buy the guitar that you feel excited about: whether it be electric, acoustic, classical.
Learning on electric vs acoustic vs whatever, all irrelevant. At most, for peace of mind, you could bring the guitar to a local guitar tech and for around 50 bucks they should do some minor adjustments and any guitar (unless defective) will be good to go.
Any guitar is difficult at the beginning. Just give it time, and enjoy the process.
Mostly agree with what others said, just my 2 cents 👍
I bought this two months ago when it was a Slickdeals FP +34 deal for $10 more from the same seller. I have been very happy with the guitar at that price; so much so that I'm considering buying another one now
There will always be some debate over the merits of different types/makes of starter guitar, but mine arrived in great shape, well set up, and a pleasure to play. A great deal on a solid-top acoustic, especially for those of us who absolutely want something smaller than a dreadnaught.

Unless you have a big 10 year old. Really can't tell kids' size by age anymore. There are kids in my son's 3rd grade that have to be at least 5'10" or something and some kids that look like they belong in Kindergarten. Only unfortunate thing is that you really probably need to get to a store and have the kid pick up the different sizes to find out.
Thank you for the response, am looking for a guitar for my 9 years old and 4' 5" hei5, do you have any suggestions? Thank you

If you have a shop nearby try out the sizes. I'm 5'6 and I love the concert size over dreadnought. However I love the low end sound of the dreadnought. Wife is 5'0" and loves the parlour size, I hate it since no low end. Honestly this is a hell of a deal for a concert size, however a proper setup will be the difference between your kid enjoying it and hating it. Remember even expensive guitars need some sort of setup.
Any recommendations what electric guitar I should get for him? He is beginner as well. Thanks in advance!
For something higher quality, see if you can get a used Yamaha Pacifica, like a 112 M. The Squier Bullet Mustang has also become a bit of a cult favorite in the under $200 range. Edit: convenient Bullet Mustang sale (I've seen it used for $80-140, but that requires waiting) https://slickdeals.net/f/15873886-squier-fsr-bullet-competition-mustang-electric-guitar-160-free-s-h
Here are some recommendations I've made in the past: https://slickdeals.net/e/13940228-monoprice-indio-helix-flamed-maple-electric-guitar-w-gig-bag-blue-burst-129-99-free-shipping-via-monoprice?p=135
I'd suggest you take your son to a guitar store and try a dozen different styles and take notes on what's most comfortable and fun for him to play. Glossy neck vs satin neck? Thick 50s U or V, thin shredder neck carve, or in the middle? What body shapes are comfortable when sitting, or standing with a strap? (I prefer Jazzmasters/Jaguars, personally).
Shorter scale like Mustang/Jaguar/LP/SG/PRS or longer scale like Strat/Tele/Jazzmaster?
Sitting down with the exact specimen and feeling it in hand will always be better to judge an emotional connection between player and instrument than an online sale.

Do you recommend an acoustic for the $ other guy mentioned dreadnought
You can go on YouTube and search "steel vs nylon guitar" to see the visual difference between steel and nylon guitars. The most obvious way to tell is by looking at the parts at the top of the strings (head and tuners) and the bottom of the strings (bridge and saddle): for example, steel string acoustics typically attach with pins at the bottom, whereas nylon strings are tied on at the bottom.
Understand that these are two different types of guitars: you cannot typically** switch between nylon and steel strings on the same guitar, they are built to use either one or the other (for any pedants reading this desperate to correct people on the internet: note the word "typically"). This guitar would not be suitable for a classical guitar class that requires a nylon string guitar.
Nylon string guitars are also marketed under the name "classical guitar". You can find plenty of models on Adorama in the $85-$140 range by searching "classical guitar" on Adorama. Prices vary, but to over-generalize, you should be able to get a nylon guitar cheaper than a steel string.
**For anyone reading this who already owns a steel string guitar, it is possibly to buy ball-end nylon strings for an acoustic. If you already own a steel string and your kid needs nylon for a class, you might consider going that route.

You should get this guitar. Sounds like a decent upgrade. I played a fender Tim Armstrong for years, it was a small body like this one (think the TA is even smaller) and i loved it.

I bought 3 of Fender and all were damaged or manufacturing defects, and they refused to change
No kidding, I bought a similar Squire '51 package that included a Fender Bullet 150 amp in 2004 from Guitar Center for about the same price, and I still use both to this day. Granted I have upgraded amps to a Boss Katana and Positive Grid Spark 40 but still use the Squire '51 to this day. Bunch of string changes later and still rock solid. Food for thought.
Granted electrics don't need as much tender love and care as an acoustic does. So you have to factor in taking care of humidity of acoustics. YMMV because I live in AZ where its dry as hell.
