4.0 out of 5 stars Denfinitely needs work, but decent once you get it together., August 7, 2010

I wanted to find the best quality, all around greatest value violin I could get for dirt cheap. I didn't want to lose an arm and a leg for something I wasn't sure I was going to be able to pick up! But I like a challenge to fix something and make it better, so it was a somewhat fun thing to do to get this going.

I read a lot of reviews and pros and cons and I settled on this. I liked it because it had nearly everything in it all packaged together: decent sound, quiet or amplified playing, rosin, bow, strings, a bag, the works.

It's cheap. looks like the colors were spray painted on like the a cheap plastic toy. Unplayable out of the box. Nearly the whole thing is plastic, but good enough once fixed up.

What other reviewers said were true:

1) Get a new bridge. There are no grooves on the one it came with and it's rather thick. The Glaesel bridge recommended from others was fine, but according to my violin teacher, rather pricey. Might be... Read more

2.0 out of 5 stars You get what you pay for, Vendor is good, July 27, 2010

This violin works fine. However here are the faults, and not just of this silent electric but of most, even the ones in the $500-$600 range.
1. To heavy. This Violin is 10 times as heavy as a regular violin
2. Can't use a shoulder rest on this Violin.
3. Poorly constructed, gaps in the molding between pieces
4. Felt like it would break after a couple of months of use

I wanted to travel with this, but the case it comes with is just a bag. This Violin has strange deminsions and wouldn't fit in any case I could find. If you are thinking about purchasing an electric make certain it can use a shoulder rest (if you use those), can fit into a standard size case, and is well constructed.

I emailed the vendor for a refund and this was done promptly and courteously.

2.0 out of 5 stars Won't stay in tune, August 31, 2010

Ok it is cheap so what did I expect. I was buying something fun, a toy of sorts. But the headphone jack gives no audio. You would think that would work. The violin works ok with a small amp I got. But try as we might it will not stay in tune. Plastic tuning pegs in a plastic body is not a design that is going to work when friction is needed. But then why are all violins made with such a crappy tuning system is beyond me. But then I am not stuck in the 16th century on design. I am certainly not a traditionalist. Given how cheap this is we will probably make our own personal changes to it in the shop and have fun doing so. Fun factor high. Quality low.
