I'll repeat what I wrote to the seller about the product: "Violin is awesome. Tone is great and the look is really nice. Worth the purchase price for sure. Recommend buying some peg drops for slipping pegs, but that's a mere $7 for a long time supply. Worked for me and only requires minor adjustments before I practice." I would also suggest buying a shoulder rest for it.So in review:
Absolutely worth buying
Buy some peg drops (~$7)
Buy a shoulder rest (payed $20 at a local shop)Well, to start off...The strings suck, and so does the rosin. I've played the violin a little over seven years now, and this is good for it's price. It has a nice tone for being so lowly priced, but, not the best.When you play, the strings hurt your fingers(or atleast mine) and your fingers get all black from the neck. But all together it is decent.I'm amazed that anyone wrote a positive review of this. To start, I attempted to set it up and three of the four strings broke immediately (the fourth would probably have, but I didn't have the heart to give it tension). The bow had about 15 strands of horse hair and is undersized. Two of the pegs were too small for the holes and would never have fit. The audio,when plugged in, was barely audible and the headsets so cheap that I've gotten better ones on airplanes. The supplied rosin was like a pad of plastic and did nothing, so I used some of my own to test the sound quality on the remaining (untuned) string. I'm not a perfectionist, but this was absurd. I can't believe it has so many good reviews. Maybe they used to make it better. Run as fast as you can away from this.My son loves it and It's a great value for us to buy this since he is using it for fun. He does not use the bow since it is only ok, so he uses his regular violin bow.
