I'm giving this product five stars because its price means that it is possible for someone on a strict budget can still afford a violin where as before it would have been impossible especially as the next cheapest violins can go for $600 or more.
I recommend that if you don't want to spend upwards of like 3,000 - 10,000 and don't know where to start, This is a excellent thing to start out on. Also in the future you could always upgrade to something professional.
The cello comes with the bridge uninstalled, the strings completely loose, and no rosin whatsoever on the bow. But it's really not too hard to set up. Overall, it's worth the price.
This cello is perfect for the price I paid. It came with everything it said it would. The bow is slightly warped (looking on it straight down)but that has not hindered my playing. A great deal for anyone looking for a first cello of her own, and totally worth it.
Violin is a tough instrument to learn and this one could easily last you 6 months maybe even a year before you start to feel like you need something else.
I played this for more than 2 years before I decided to get something a little better. Still, I'm glad I bought this violin because I got a chance to see that I really enjoyed playing it without spending a lot of money.
I love how easy it was to get started for a beginner just learning to play. would.highly recommend! me and my son have both been playing it is of great quality.
I am an adult taking up this new hobby. I have had it for only a couple weeks. This is a great violin package for a newbie to see if you take to the violin.
I can't say much in comparison to a more expensive violin as this is the first one I have ever played. I docked one star because my bow seems a bit roughly made. It lost quite a few hairs at the start. So far I am loving it!
I am a beginner and do not know much about violin craftsmanship/workmanship. What I can say about this violin is that it is beautiful and just as described. I don't know what makes a good quality violin, but upon inspecting it, everything looks well constructed and put together. I did not see any flaws in this violin.
Very lovely instrument. The purpose I bought the cello was to learn how to play (I already have been playing violin and viola for years and wanted to try cello). I suggest rosining the bow a lot to not break it in the first time.
