Go Violin!, July 18, 2006
By 
Robyn (MN, USA) – See all my reviews

Verified Purchase(What’s this?)
I ordered this violin on a Sunday evening and recieved it the following Saturday at 9am with the cheapest shipping.

This is, well, a cheap violin. You’re looking at it because you’re interested in getting a cheap violin. Why? I thought of the following:

Decor, prop, for a child, to find out if you hate or have an unknown untapped talent for the violin, you think it will be fun, but don’t want to spend a lot of cash on a whim.

I’m kind of the last two, and I don’t have piles of cash lying around. So I figured I can afford that, if I hate it then hey at least it would look pretty in a room of my house somewhere.

So yeah, it arrived timely. The case… is cheap. There’s like some glue on the felt in spots, wooden debris, the outer material feels a bit flimsy, but it’s a case, and it will suffice. It actually looks soft-sided but it’s firm. I kinda like it. My interior was red, not the tan.

Setting up the bridge is really easy. I’m not sure why people complain about it in these reviews (like for other colors). I never had a stringed instrument before- it took a couple minutes. I will explain it here to help future customers so that they needen’t google all over like I did.

The bridge is that piece that goes under the strings that aligns them in the right shape and provides tension. If you look at the violin on the sides of the strings you see those holes that look like f. Those are the F-holes (not kidding). At the cross in the f is where the bridge goes. First, slacken the strings a bit. I did this because people said they broke them. Then put the bridge on its side under the strings so that when you stand it up the tallest part is on the fattest string. Now stand it up so that when standing it’s at the f’s cross, fitting the strings into the little slots on the top. You may need to slacken the strings more to get it to fit. After you get it standing the strings should still be tight enough to hold it in place. You will tighten as you tune.

I purchased the 9.99 electronic tuner through Musician’s friend on amazon, it fits perfectly in that little compartment in the case.

The pegs slip, but you’re supposed to push in as you turn them to get them to stay. If they still slip, push harder. Or use peg dope to make them frictiony-er. The violin went in tune well enough, It did go a little flat as the new strings stretched out but now it’s behaving.

Within a couple hours I had a few notes down and a horrendous rendition of “marry had a little lamb.”

As far as being a starter vioin it’s perfect for my needs. It’s pretty, in-tune, and functional. If you’re a serious professional, you spend serious money. I’m sure a master violinist could make my cheap violin sing beautifully.

Better than I expected!, July 20, 2006
By 
L. Nevin “Eagle Mountain Books” – See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)
  

I purchased this violin on a whim when I was reminiscing about playing as a child. It is a terrific price (cheaper than most toys…or at least the same price as a meal out with the family…) and comes with everything I needed to get started. I was pleasantly surprised that it came well packed and within the suggested time. I was also able to track the item through UPS. I panicked at first because I could not get any sound to come out of it and thought I had been sold a piece of junk. I went to the internet to see if I could figure out what was wrong and found that I needed to attach the bridge that was in the accessory compartment of the case. It was much easier than I thought. I found a great website that explained it all to me […]and also has free beginning lessons and other important information that I have already found helpful. The other crucial key to getting sound from the violin is to have the bow rosined properly. (You also need to tighted the bow with the little screw at the end so that it is taunt) To get the rosin to work, sand the shiney surface off the top with some sandpaper and then rosin your bow, otherwise the rosin will not deposit on the bow. Once I did these things, I was able to get great sound out of my new violin….Notice – I said sound, not music! That will hopefully come later!

A little review!, January 7, 2009
By 
Joshua Araya (Heredia, Costa Rica) – See all my reviews

Ok, first I recommend to buy some extra stuff with this violin to set it up correctly. I’ve been playing violin now for 18 years and I know that the violin isn’t very confortable without a shoulder rest. So I RECOMMEND to buy a good one, for me the best shoulder rests brand is “Kun”.

Then I recommend to buy 4 fine tuners to tune the violin easier and you’ll see that fine tuners will help a lot in the violin tuning and it’s more important if you’re a begginer.

And now let’s talk about the violin..As the first thing..Dont expect a Guarneri with this purchase but by the way it comes to a very good instrument so far if you can take care of it and you can play it good and give it maintenance. It has a great sound and it’s good if you are learning to play violin because in some years you’ll need a better violin.

It’s a great instrument for learning
