I really do love this violin so far. I’ve only had it for less than a week and I’m already getting the feel of it down pretty good. I am somewhat of a beginner/early intermediate on violin. Not a stranger to musical instruments, however and I play a lot by ear. Aside from a 5 string fretted violin that I own, I had purchased a different practice electric violin from a violin shop for around $400. I practice a lot in the garage because I leave my amp there and I just don’t want to pack it back and forth and also don’t want to wear headphones much and that gets me out of the house and not interrupting everyone. The summer humidity damaged that violin (I had, had trouble with it to begin with as it cracked soon after purchase around the amplifier Jack with careful use) because I had left it in the garage. Leaving it in the garage caused the fretboard arm to come
Loose :-(. Dummy me, and I won’t be leaving this one in the garage. Leaving it in the garage didn’t cause the crack as that had happened beforehand. This violin sounds sooo much better than the $400 violin. I did change the strings out to helicore strings and used peg dope on the pegs. It did take a few days for the strings to settle in and the peg dope to really start working good. So for those first few days, it wouldn’t stay in tune for very long at a time. I’ve read this is common with new violins. So for those saying that it won’t stay in tune, get some peg dope or peg drops and watch some YouTube videos on how to use it. That makes a huge difference. Be sure to push the pegs in while turning, but not too hard as to not break the peg box. The only thing I’m disappointed with on this violin, is the tailpiece has rough edges on the sides and is very cheap looking, so I plan to replace that as well, and I do wish the amp Jack was the standard 1/4th instead of the 1/8 so that I don’t have to buy new items to be wireless, but it’s workable. Overall, I am completely satisfied with this one and wish this company sold a red model in the 4/4 size, as I would buy another one. For beginners and intermediate players, watch some YouTube videos on set up, consider changing the strings and use the peg dope, give it a few days to really settle in before making your judgement, as I think it’s a great practice violin and I plan to use it to play in front of family as well. As for the bow! Rosin the heck out of it first. I didn’t try the rosin that came with it and used a brand that’s always highly recommended called sartory. I already had 4 bows, but the one that came with it will be usable, but you need to heavily rosin it first. Enjoy!
