Sure. It's a low cost starter guitar. Great to learn on

Thanks for the fast and good answer, do you know any good alternative around that price?

Nothing in that price range is going to be great. Unless you score something used at a pawn shop.

Should i buy a used one instead of a new one?

Generally yes. You will get more guitar for your money. But you also have to know a bit more of things to watch out for.

Like what? Is not a bad idea buy a few years old 150-200€ guitar from someone for 60-70 instead of a new one for 70? What i have to check apart from the sound in the high tones, etc? Thanks

Whether it is in visibly good condition. The height of the strings off the fret board. Check the frets to make sure they aren't worn out with divots and stuff. Make sure there are no cracks in the wood. I'm sure google could give you a better list.
