I use this violin with a baroque bow, Passione gut strings, and without a chin or shoulder rest...for fiddling. Everyone who hears it is blown away by it's sound and, although I have in the ast owned a violin that cost 10 times what this one did, I wouldn't trade back! ... (See Full Review)

October 09, 2011excellent violin for advancing student
I have been enjoying this violin for several month now, and it was a great buy. In the store I compare this violin against 3 other violins in about the same price range. Needless to say I liked his one best. This is a violin that brings a lot of potential to the violin player. It has a sweet, yet brighter sound, with a wonderful E-String sound. I am expecting the violin to sound even better in a few years, when the brand new violin has settled a bit. It is lightweight and well made, perfect for an advancing student or a serious adult. I would not recommend it to a kid and beginner, which is better served with a more sturdy build violin at start. The only remark I have are the tuning pegs. Although doable, the violin can be at times very hard to fine-tune. Great buy! ... (See Full Review)
