Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I bought 2 violins (1/10 size) for my 4 year olds. It comes with a great case that can be carried by hand or as a backpack.
One of the bows was not arched enough; it was too straight. I contacted the company about this and they immediately sent me a new bow that I am very satisfied with.
Some of the pegs are loose, which makes it hard to keep the strings tightened. I really only have a problem with one peg on one of the violins - the E string.
Our violin professor said the bridges are too high on these violins for this age. The grooves also do not match up well with the strings, so the strings slip on the bridge sometimes. She said they needed to be sanded and re-cut. When I contacted the company about this, they said that the teacher or customer usually does this to fit their needs. However, our professor said it should be done by a professional. I don't know yet how we will fix this.
I think the price was $55-60 when I bought it.
It is not perfect, but it is worth it for the price. I would recommend this company, as well as purchase from them again at the price we paid.
