Full Size Violin 4 x 4 With Case - Dark Blue Review

Full Size Violin 4 x 4 With Case - Dark Blue
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
First off, the color is cerulean, not dark blue. Second, it didn't come with a bridge, but when they sent the bridge, it did not have those notches or spaces to put the strings in, and the poor quality wood gave me a splinter. Third, Half of the dang instrument isn't even real wood. Fourth, the string came out of one of the pegs. Fifth, I found many other violins for the same price as this piece of crap to be real maple and ebony wood, and have everything included. Sixth, the bow hair was stained red. Seventh, the paint they used on the violin was cheap and looked as if it would fade very soon. Eighth, The fingerboard had oil on it. (So far, it looks like it was used) Ninth, three bow hair pieces already came out the day I took the violin out of the box. Tenth, the red case pictured above was really tan when it had arrived. Eleventh, the strings are really cheap and are not at all intended for professionals or something to last long. Twelfth, the rosin I received was all messy and already used, and some of it was chipped. Thirteenth, the leather on the bow hair where you put your index finger when playing is coming off. Fourteenth, the lines on the outside look like someone just ran a sharpie across to make it. Fifteenth, this thing is a complete waste of money!!!!

Average Reviews:

I bought this product thinking it would be a good beginners violin for myself. My standards were kind of low...and I have to say that when I received this package I was disappointed.
1.) The color you see in the picture is not correct. It's more of a [really shiny] blueish-green. It's not a pretty color. Plus, it wasn't painted very well. There are paint dots where a clump has dried, on the front!
2.) The strings where tangled up. Took me forever to fix it.
3.) The strings were not placed in the correct order to begin with. [1243?]
4.) String 1 [being G] was broken at the top close to the peg-- and couldn't be correctly tuned.
5.) I couldn't get one of the pegs to stay in its place.
All in all, the violin I received made my low standards seem like a far-off distant place. Unreachable by the violin entirely.
However, I do actually believe that if you restring it as soon as you get it -- it might not seem so bad. The bow is pretty durable. Also, the wood is nice. Better than some.

Full Size Violin 4 X 4 with Case - Metallic White Review

My experience with this product is great. I decided to start learning how to play violin. I decided to start with a cheap one. This one seemed like the way to go because the only negative reviews I read were contradicted by the helpful description. I paid only about 20 dollars for shipping and that was to receive it 3 days after I ordered. When I got it I just followed the instructions they sent to my email, installed the bridge, and tuned it. Then I plucked the strings to stretch them and retune a few times and before long they stopped slipping. It took a while, and reading up on rosin before I could get the bow to work but now I'm good to go, very happy with my purchase, and ready to find an instructor.

This violin sounds good (per violin tutor). She was very surprised that it was as inexpensive as it was. Generally speaking, painted violins aren't the best choice but my 12yr old daughter loves it & it makes a statement! Expect to have to replace all of the strings, though. They all broke w/in about 3 weeks. Still a GREAT deal.

Palatino Antonius Violin Outfit 3/4 Size, with featherweight case and bow Review

Palatino Antonius Violin Outfit 3/4 Size, with featherweight case and bow
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
We rented a violin the first year for about $280. We had no clue thinking violins were $300-$500. My son wanted to play a 2nd year so we decided to buy one. This is it. He loves it and is very proud to have it. We decided to buy in the mid range of $50 - $150 and went for the $85 violin. It was easy to put the bridge on. My 10 year old did it his self and the music teacher tuned it up in about 5min. So far so good and waaaaaaaaay better than forking over $28 a month for 10 months.

I bought this item for my nephew for Christmas and he loved it! It is the perfect size for a 9 year old. Within an hour of opening he was already trying to learn with the accompanying materials. The case is also sturdy and very nice. It was shipped as a gift and the gift bag it was packaged in was a large blue velvet material with a yellow string, making it perfect as a Christmas gift! I was very pleased with this purchase.

Review of the JOSEF BREMEN VIOLIN OUTFIT 4/4
This product is a good buy for beginning violinists or those that don't want to spend alot of money, but recieve a satisfactory product. It was nicely kempt on arrival without damages. The rosin, the bow, and the instrument were all in good condition and ready to play. My main concern at first, was that the tuning pegs had trouble keeping thier tuning for the first few times I played it, after I'd "broken in" the instrument however and the strings had time to stretch and adjust, the strings kept thier tuned settings. Obviously it is not as exquisite as a professional quality instrument, but it is good quality. It sounds very clear and crisp with the rosin applied, and is an overall great deal for the presented price of $129.95.

This Violin Kit is an excellent product at a great price. When the Violet arrived my granddaughter started to play it and has played it everyday since.

This violin is very good for young beginners. It gives them a chance to get their feet wet without spending a fortune, and gives them 2 bows, extra strings and 2 bridges in case the little accident of life occur.

A step up in in design, the Barcelona 2 Series violin features an aged, more natural looking finish than the model below, as well as sturdier fine tuning pegs. Ideal for the novice musician, it features hand carved solid maple with a spruce top, assembled with the quality construction normally found in much more expensive violins. The included case is a light weight form fitting hard case with pockets and strap, making it convenient to carry to your lessons. It comes with accessories valued at over $60 alone: Fine Graded-Rosin, an extra bridge, bow, and set of strings. Basically everything you need to pick it up and begin playing! Buy with confidence as it comes with a one year warranty against any manufacturing defects. We dare you to find a better bargain!
