We received this violin and were not pleased. There appeared to be a sloppy glue job on the neck, touched up paint on the chin rest, and a crack by the F hole. We returned this violin for a refund, so we cannot say how it played.

I bought this as my second violin as i left my original hand crafted violin back in India. I am certainly not a beginner, as i have been playing a violin from almost 10 years, and definitely not a pro as i don't give concerts. I can distinguish between good and bad instruments. After playing this violin for a few minutes, i felt the tone is a bit harsh, but it will improve with time. The package as a whole is a good one with two bows, an extra set of strings, an extra bridge, a tuner, though i would have preferred a roomier professional case and a attachable pickup at a slightly extra price, but not many students would need them. Definitely value for money package for a student.
I would also recommend a brass/rubber mute along with the violin.

I am a music major at Indiana State University who plays upright bass in orchestra, and was looking to expand my music knowledge to violin. To my surprise my parents picked this up for me. I attempted to tune it and the high e string broke. Not surprising. As a rule, ALWAYS put new string on an instrument right away. The strings it came with were old and low quality. Also be sure to clean the instrument. I was disturbed by the amount of filth that came off the finger board. When i was done with setting it up and such, the instrument i was left with was astounding. The sound and depth is very nice, and the finish is stunning. I'm very happy with it. The case is nice, but it did need to be cleaned. the bows are passable, the rosin..... buy new rosin.
