5.0 out of 5 stars Nice Violin, EXCELLENT price!, October 15, 2005

This review is from: Full Size Violin 4 x 4 With Case - Metallic Natural

I received this violin and loved it! The case is very nice and the bow is beautiful too! My friend, a violin instructor, helped me set up the bridge, with no problems. The instrument has a beautiful, glossy finish and does have a wood chin rest as stated in the product description. The pegs and chin rest were black and not brown like it shows in the picture on Amazon so beware of that. Although the product description clearly states that accessory colors may vary. I was very pleased. My friend, the violinist said you must rub the rosin for a long time until it is no longer shiny, but dull in appearance, then it will rub off on the bow. The violin seems to hold tune well for a brand new instrument with brand new strings which, exactly like the product description states, need to stretch and will need to be tuned frequently at first. My violin instructor and close friend says this violin is nicer than the one she started on that costed her $500! She has aspirations of becoming a concert violinist, and this instrument impressed her, so I know I will be happy with it, and I got a bargain by purchasing it! Order this with ease of mind and enjoy it when it arrives! I have.

4.0 out of 5 stars violin with jujube accessories, July 18, 2008

I bought the item and received it within 36 hours. WOW! I had to install the bridge which was on the listing. Make sure to install the curved part of the bridge towards the neck and in between the two notches in the F holes. I couldnt get it to play until my wife said to rub the rosin on the bow firmly for 5-10 minutes. I apparently wasnt rubbing hard enough cause as soon as she did it, it started playing perfectly. It doesnt have all the bells and whistles but exceeded my expectation for the price. Make sure to push in on the tuning pegs when adjusting or they wont hold. I bought this particular violin because it was inexpensive and I grow jujube fruit trees and the accessories are made of jujube wood.
