What kid of strings needs to be used for this guitlele ? Please give me the link, so that I can by.

I've fitted a set of Ernie Ball Ernesto Palla Nylon Black and Silver Classical Tie On Set and they are perfect. They took a little playing to settle in but now they are fine.

Can the guitalele be tuned to E?

I have to say, as an experienced player, I have had no problem keeping this in tune like a standard guitar EADGBE. It took a while for the tension to settle in but it's fine, the intonation has stayed good. I took sensible precautions by tuning it down gradually, and I don't expect to be able to alternate these very different tunings. Obviously there is less tension in the strings now but it is not causing me a problem. If your style requires higher tension then consider buying different strings.

Good for a 4 year old beginner?

I would think that the neck/fret board would be too wide for small hands.

Wanting tp pack in my (large) suitcase. Can someone give me the dimentions from largest width to length please

Its dimensions are: scale length (nut to saddle) 432 mm (17"); nut width 47.6 mm (1 7⁄8"); body length 698 mm (27 1⁄2"); body width 229 mm (9"); body depth 71.4 mm (2 13⁄16").
