This little violin has a big sound and good tone quality. My son's violin teacher is impressed with it and so is my wife who is a violinist.
When he needs the next size up I would buy the same brand.

I guess I got what I paid for. The violin was poor quality & the bow was made with nylon instead of horsehair. After the 1st use the nylon threads on the bow started snapping & fraying. The tuning pegs don't stay in place & keep coming off. I don't reccomend this product.

I purchased this violin for my wife, an adult over 50 and we have no children left at home. The children are married or off to college and do not live close by. I stated this because I didn't want anyone to think that some child was messing with this violin.
The violin has trouble keeping tuned. Also the bow cracked before my wife had a chance to use it. She is taking lessons from an elderly lady who has complained about the violin strings becoming loose too easily.
I would highly recommend looking for another product.

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Since there were no comments posted up i'll be the first.
The SV-130 violin can be played with earphones or even with an amp.
It has a very rich sound and i personally recomend it for intermediate violin players.
It came perfectly packaged nicely, however my country had tax for musical instrument of 10% so to any of you who are thinking of purchasing this instrument please check your country's taxes.
The strings arent that bad but the G string broke when I was tuning it. I would recomend a full set restring, and the pegs wouldnt hold too well.
The bow seems pretty descent too. The only problematic part about this violin is the Gig Bag provided. PLEASE DO NOT GO FOR THE GIG BAG. Just buy the violin. The bag does not fit the violin properly and the violin has to be inverted in order to be inserted into the bag.
The reason i rated it 4 stars and not 5 is mainly because of the bag and strings. Other than that, it is an awesome buy. Furthermore it's price is also reasonable. For sound quality as such, 700 dollars is a very low sum to pay.

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The violin came very fast, but the color displayed on amazon is deceiving. The violin is not as blue as it looks in the picture, but is more of a light torquoise. I have been unable to get ahold of Gracemall to discuss exchanging for another color. It is very difficult to find contact info to talk to someone. This was a Christmas present for a little girl who was disappointed by the ugly color and now it looks as though it cannot be exchanged. Anyone have any ideas on how to get ahold of Gracemall? Amazon seems to not want to give any info about them on the website.

Average Reviews:

Well, to start off...The strings suck, and so does the rosin. I've played the violin a little over seven years now, and this is good for it's price. It has a nice tone for being so lowly priced, but, not the best.When you play, the strings hurt your fingers(or atleast mine) and your fingers get all black from the neck. But all together it is decent.

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!!!!

Gibson Baldwin Music Education Violin Kit - GBVLSM Review

Gibson Baldwin Music Education Violin Kit - GBVLSM
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I have come across a number of these, working in a music shop. These violin kits are of inferior quality. The cheap wood bows are often warped, the fingerboard and nut are made of inexpensive wood (instead of ebony) that will wear easily, and cases of this quality seldom last the school year. Making the instrument and bow playable would cost as much as the kit. Save time and money, look at rentals at a local music shop. If you really want to purchase a violin, invest the extra money now on a better quality instrument; you will save money later on repair costs.

Barcus-Berry Full Size 4/4 European Made Acoustic Electric Violin Outfit - Natural Color Review

Barcus-Berry Full Size 4/4 European Made Acoustic Electric Violin Outfit - Natural Color
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Sounds good for a cheaply made violin. More bright though I would prefer a darker sound. I like how there is a volume knob on top of the violin. There's a Yamaha electric violin where the knob is on the bottom and is unreachable if you're in playing position. The mechanics work very well. It doesn't feed back. Not bad for the price. The case it comes with broke right away. It's absolutely a piece of junk as is the bow. I immediately changed the strings to Dominant strings which made it sound better.
If you need an electric violin and don't have the money to get a good one, this violin gets the job done. Not the best, but what do you expect for the price?
