(More customer reviews)I purchased this violin as a gift for my 3 year old granddaughter who, unfortunately, did not start her lessons with in the 10 day refund period of purchase. When her teacher looked at the instrument, she sent my daughter to a technician who found the following issues with the instrument: hair pulling loose from frog on bow; wrong size strings for instrument; soundpost too long; endpin drilled at an incorrect angle so it could not be fitted properly and A peg hole cut at an angle and too close to back wall so there was not enough room between the peg with a string on it and back of the pegbox wall. Bottom line, this instrument is good for nothing except use as a toy - it is not repairable. The technician could not believe this instrument was sold as a playable instrument. When I contacted Music Basics about a replacement instrument or a refund, I was informed that my cpmplaint was past the 10 day deadline!
