    • The pegs are so stiff and when u try to tune it, it just keeps going down.4

    • The issue that I had was that on one of the violins that I ordered the sound peg had come loose

    • The top peg is broken off
    • From day one the bridge slips out from the strings...no peg oil or rosin trick can keep the strings in tune for more than a day...but my 4th grader is learning so she doesnt know the difference as she practices
    • Overall nice violin for price, I just wish that the pegs could be nicer, and the neck to be painted the color I ordered

    • Only problem was slippery pegs
    • I was told by a professional at a music store that the pegs on this violin are not long enough
    • Humidity effects how well pegs stay in place and as far as the bridge collapsing there is a knack to tuning
    • Now the pegs have always been difficult to stay in place, and I thought the fine tuners were awful.
    • A peg at the top of the fretboard was split down the middle and would need to be completely replaced
    • Humidity effects how well pegs stay in place and as far as the bridge collapsing there is a knack to tuning
    • I didn't want to push my luck and break the pegs or
    • Make sure you put the strings against the sides of the violin pegbox so that the friction of the string against the wood will keep the pegs from slipping
    • Falling bridge, inadequate peg condition caused the violin unusable.
    • I forgot the name of the product but you apply it to the slippery pegs, re-string the peg ( super easy) no more slippage.
    • The pegs are loose and one will have to push them in really hard while tuning to make sure it stays in tune.
    • The top peg is broken off
    • I could have replaced them with good pegs for nearly as much as this violin cost.
    • The pegs are cheap and they don't like to be tuned by them

    • While trying to tune it, the peg didn't hold at all and unraveled the string
    • First a tuning peg broke and when replacing it the top scroll broke off entirely
    • Could probably use better fitted tuning pegs.
    • I was so excited about my new violin, but when I received it, one of the fine tuning pegs looked like someone smashed it with a hammer
    • After repeatedly tuning them and some good ol' peg dope, they eventually stay in place; you just have to deal with the initial annoyance
    • Like the pegs would not be able to hold it
    • The bridge is to short, the fingerboard is warped, the pegs are awful and not long enough
    • The pegs are worthless and wouldn't stay taut, which means the violin couldn't tune.
    • The pegs hardly hold tune long enough to get the instrument fully tuned, but then fall back out of tune as soon as you begin playing
    • Defective pegs, peg box
    • (my fault, I turned the peg the wrong way and snapped it) so obviously be careful with them
    • First, the bad: the holes for the strings in the tuning pegs had to have been drilled by a nearsighted drunkard
    • This is a STANDARD issue on all violions...enough that even fancy violin stores sell Hills peg oil, or Peg dope
    • but then the pegs got loose all the time and the violin wouldn't stay tuned well
    • The violin teacher informed me that it will not hold a tune because the pegs fit to loose and will not hold the strings tight which allows the bridge to move while you play.
    • First violin arrived - the pegs were loose
    • The pegs are too loose to properly tune and the paint work on, at least mine in particular, didn't even seem complete.

    • The pegs are so smooth that it's impossible to keep it in tune.
