It's super good for beginners who just want to get started. It's a pretty good violin and the sound quality is great for the price it was sold for.

I have been playing violin and viola for over 20 years and used to teach private lessons. I wanted to get another cheap second violin to travel and not have to worry about damaging an expensive instrument from leaving it in a cold car, getting it stolen, etc. I am really impressed by the quality and sound of this budget violin. It comes ready to play, with an extra set of strings, mute, and a nice comfortable shoulder rest.

As a beginner violinist, this violin is more than good enough. How often you need to tune it will depend on the humidity. Once I moved to somewhere with humidity above 50%, the rate of tuning went from every time I wanted to play it to once every few months. Regardless of humidity, I recommend reinstalling the strings to keep the pegs from slipping.

Thank you. This is my first violin. I am very excited and appreciative to learn how to play it.

after a day of getting my violin, the chin rest practically fell apart on me midplay. I took it to a credited music shop and they have found other problems with it like cracked tuning pegs that split in half after they tried to tune it, cracks on the bridge it's self, problems with the bow, etc. I really should've listen to the comments that mentioned the poor quality with such a low price, should've expected really. Definitely need my money back

Excellent violin and great value!. With a bridge replacement and a few adjustments this violin sounds better than my $500 violin. It has great tone and projects very well. It also looks fantastic.

When I received the violin I was impressed. I bought it as a gift for my adult son. He liked it very much. He kept it in his house with central heat and air. In December of 2021 he found the fingerboard had bowed to the point it is not playable. We cannot understand why this happened. I immediately contacted your company not to make demands or complain. I wanted to purchase a replacement fingerboard. My son felt he could replace it. The reply I received from Glarry was very short saying you d ...

I wanted to purchase a replacement fingerboard. My son felt he could replace it. The reply I received from Glarry was very short saying you do not sell replacement parts. No apology was offered or a suggestion as to how to get a replacement part. Needless to say I am extremely disappointed with your company! I had thoughts about purchasing another instrument from Glarry but I will not do so. I will not recommend your products to anyone.

I gave a 3 because the G and D tuners slip badly and won't achieve correct tuning. Also, no string slots cut in the bridge and I don't have those tools.

Lin is a wonderful manager to deal with she sent me another choice. At first there was some peg slipping but corrected now. The original violin had pegs that slip even after peg dope has been applied…

ABSOLUTELY BLOWN AWAY ! ,price aside ( which is INCREDIBLE ,BTW), this violin is 5x better than what I ve seen locally for 3x price ! , which I would gladly pay for THIS instrument ! , TOTAL SATISFACTION !!!

I have been playing string instruments since I was 12 years old but never the vilion Now in my early 50s I decided to learn the violin. Out of the box, I did my first sacle, set up was a bit difficult, the bridge was a bit bulky, but the quality of this instrument was very good. Especially for the price. Will shave down the bridge, widen the strings at the nut, and have a set of tuners on the way. I was impressed with the sound as well, the resenation was pleasing to the ear. Nice instrument.

The Violin is beautiful, I am VERY SATISFIED

Hi All - Never having played the violin, this was the perfect price point for me. Not too flimsy and not so expensive that I feel like I wasted my hard earned cash if I couldn't get the hang of the instrument. Out of the box it presented beautifully. Set up was easy and instructions right to the point. What is a nice addition to this starter violin is the video link/url here at Glarry.com - There might be one here I haven't checked. The violin feels comfortable in my large hands and the chin res ...

Hi All - Never having played the violin, this was the perfect price point for me. Not too flimsy and not so expensive that I feel like I wasted my hard earned cash if I couldn't get the hang of the instrument. Out of the box it presented beautifully. Set up was easy and instructions right to the point. What is a nice addition to this starter violin is the video link/url here at Glarry.com - There might be one here I haven't checked. The violin feels comfortable in my large hands and the chin rest/shoulder rest work well for a six foot 200lb guy like me. Overall I am VERY HAPPY with my purchase and the Glarry company has made great strides in becoming a serious contender in the entry/intermediate player arena. This is my second instrument, the first being a Uke that I love to play. Nothing but love A.J

Excellent, Fast shipping, quality instrument for the price point.

Beautiful instrument! I don't know how something so nice can be made and sold at such a low price. I am very satisfied. Excellent communication.

CAME WHEN THEY SAID LOOKS GREAT THANKS cant wait to she gets for christmas

Very nice looking violin, accessories included were not expected. A lot for the money.

on October 29, 2020

I was very pleased with the whole experience. The ordering was easy. The free shipping was great. Everything you get for the price is very good. The shipping was fast and reliable. Overall everything was great. Thank You so much. Now its time to start learning and playing.

This violin is definitely worth at least twice as much as the paid price! The woodwork and finish on the instrument is excellent, and it comes with enough accessories that are more than the cost of the entire package if purchased elsewhere. My only suggestion would be to outfit this violin with all four fine tuners instead of just the one on the E string. Other than that, this is a great beginner-to-intermediate violinist package!

the violin very good shipping time good thank you

on August 28, 2020

Very impressed with the quality of this package at this price is unbelievable!! Right out of the box it has a nice tone. I put a set of dominant strings on it and I like it even more. Just to nitpick there was a little glue squeeze out around the nut and the bridge is a little bit chunky for my taste but both are easily addressed and don't really affect the playability. Very satisfied

on July 24, 2020

This is really great for the price. It looks really nice and sounds like a violin! It comes with everything a person needs to get started and determine if they enjoy this instrument. If you want to learn violin it is worth a shot. It comes with an extra set of strings but if you're a beginner you'll probably be wanting more soon.

For the price this violin and accessories package will exceed your expectations. If not, then you're greedy. Everything, including the tuner, is good. As for the bow, it's surprisingly good. The violin sound is good and puts out a good amount of volume. With a better set of strings, I suspect this violin will sound better. The case is basic, but not bad. The bridge is not bad either. I noticed it didn't appear to be as thick as the one Jerry Rosa was less than impressed with during his review of ...

For the price this violin and accessories package will exceed your expectations. If not, then you're greedy. Everything, including the tuner, is good. As for the bow, it's surprisingly good. The violin sound is good and puts out a good amount of volume. With a better set of strings, I suspect this violin will sound better. The case is basic, but not bad. The bridge is not bad either. I noticed it didn't appear to be as thick as the one Jerry Rosa was less than impressed with during his review of this model (YouTube video). The one critical point I have is that string spacing on the nut is a terrible job. The spacing is uneven and the G and E strings could be closer to the edge. Please make a jig to measure slot spacing. Ideally, as far apart as reasonably possible and evenly spaced, so as to make the violin as easy as possible to play. For this reason, I'm dropping a star off my review. If slot spacing was at least in the ballpark, I would have given this violin package five stars.

Beautiful violin, looks and sounds great. Just needed a simple setup.

on May 11, 2020

This violin exceeded all my expectations for an instrument at this price. I had a small problem with the bow, it was warped, but Glarry support dept. Was eager to help. 4 stars for the instrument, 5 stars for customer service.

My daughter started violin lessons yesterday and his teacher said it was good quality and she tuned it easily. Thank you Glarry.
