 Don't Listen August 28, 2008

To the people who rated this thing 1 and 2 stars, they are probably very advanced players to begin with... i am a beginner, i haven't been playing that long and i have to say this was the perfect fiddle for me. it sounds great and everything, there is just one complaint i have, when i opened the case for the first time and took the bow out, a whole bunch of strands of hair were broke off the bow, and the bow isn't that great either, im gonna just buy another bow. But as for the fiddle itself i am highly satisfied.

I ordered this product for myself on a Sunday night and received on Thursday; however, although their were no instructions to installed the bridge,it wasn't hard to google instructions "violin bridge". The bridge wasn't the correct size, the proper cutouts did not fit the notches of the instrument. Yes, this is a bargain!! agreeablely so, the strings are undeniable CHEAP and broke on me the first night during tuning,the Rosin came in pieces and the screws on the tailpiece were jammed. So before I could enjoy, music I had to first achieve sound, I took my new "beautiful" violin to a local violin repair shop, I had the strings, bridge, rosin and the tailpiece replaced; the cost including tuning and labor $120. So this bargain ended costing me the price as if I bought it in the local music store.

I recieved my violin today for my daughter. I read the reviews on this product and I was really in the middle. Well after recieving a broken violin today I am convinced that I should have gone done to the local music store and rented one. It was horrible, light wieght - yeah like 8 oz, not 8 lbs. I think that is why it showed up broken. The strings will not stay tight, the neck was broken, the chin rest was broken and the back had a long split. I was horrified. I buy a lot online and this is the first time I have felt I was taken. I am trying to return the product now.

I took my time and picked out a cheap violin to fool around with and this looked like a good deal. I even paid attention to when everyone said that you need to be careful with the strings and all that jazz BUT the stupid things snapped...twice and I even had the music store tune it after I broke the first string and he snapped 2 more while I was standing there. Im just annoyed with it, maybe it was just mine but...rawr.

Please, please, please, if your child is interested in violin, do not think you are going to do him/her any favors or save yourself any money by getting a $50 instrument off the internet.
Go to your local music store. They will rent you a MUCH BETTER INSTRUMENT for the low low price of about $15/month. Most have specials where the first few months are $5 each.
Then, if your kid likes it, they have a GOOD quality instrument to play which will encourage them to keep playing. Poor quality instruments are difficult to play. Heck, I've been at it over 20 years and I can't get a decent sound out of a $50 violin. You can't expect a beginner to, either! :(
If your kid hates it, then you're out $15 instead of $50. I saved you money! :)
Thank me later!
