Apart from these problems, it does have a very nice sound for a $60 violin, but it is still a very cheap violin

This thing tunes easily and has a nice sound!

The sound is terrible, as well

The violin itself has a decent enough quality sound (once again, not a great musician or

great sound, very happy

Still, after a couple of days messing with the tuning to get it to hold, it produces a decent sound and since I'm just learning it's a perfect instrument for that purpose.

Great shape, got her fast and really does have a beautiful sound for the price

good sound, everything as advertised

It is also not exaggerated enough so that I DON'T hit two strings at once (which I often do).The sound is fine, but I have nothing to compare it to

The sound and quality are great for the price (you can always invest in a better instrument once you get good)

We will be purchasing a more long term Full-sized violin with a richer sound.

Whenever I take off the bridge the violin doesn't even make a proper sound

Wonderful sound

The sound is not bad either

Bad sound

This violin has a strong sound and stays in tune very nicely.

But the sound isn't scratchy, rosin or oil the pegs before tuning, and maybe invest in better rosin and horsehair for the bow....that is if you want...

I excepted a little better sound.

Once tuned, the sound was beautiful and not at all scratchy

The sound is good - honestly, how many of us can tell the difference between an $185K violin and this one?

As I am just learning, the sound seems pretty good to me, so I take it the quality of the bridge (minus the way it's shaped), the bow, the strings, and rosin are good enough for a beginner

For now this is exactly what we needed and it has a really good sound

I purchased this violin for my daughter who was starting violin class at school, and while I would not say that it sounds amazing, I think it sounds very good for the price and for her level of playing (and I've heard far worse-sounding violins that other students have played).

I decided I wanted to play again for church, it's going to add such a beautiful sound, but I bought this one to practice

The bow fell apart with 30 days of use and the instrument does not make a good sound.

I will be using it for songs that really need a brighter sound, after I get my mellow darker toned violin

It was a little brighter and little bit of a hollower sound than the Mendini, basically, not as good, but playable and gave a different sound

Gives a nice sounds for a student violin, but we've had some trouble with one of the tuning pegs staying tight

Beautifully made violin, has a great sound.

great sound

Surprisingly good sound from this violin, very well built

Sound is bad and the bow has to be prepared

The sound itself is fine on the violin, decent at least, however I wasn't able to tune the pegs no matter how many techniques I used, making the instrument it self sound out of tune as I played it

The violin has a great sound once you rosin the bow up (and I mean 15 mins plus) and probably not with the rosin it came with

I was happy that the violin was in perfect condition when it arrived and that the sound was much better than I had expected from a student violin

Couldn't get any decent sound out of

i love the sound,though you have to tune it every two days,my daughter's teacher said it will improve with time.my daughter loves it

It has a great sound, although hollow due to the wood, and projects great with that string upgrade (that is key)

I've been able to pull out some decent sound from the instrument even with lack of rosin on the

It comes out of tune while it is in the case, but for the price he is able to make a good sound while he is learning

Has a nice sound also!

Unexpected quality and sound from this inexpensive violin

Great Sound for the Money!

The music teacher told that this instrument has really bad sound

The sound is also very good for a student, I have recommended to all of the students at my child's school.

My current violin has varnish, a bridge put on properly, and a sweet sound

Looks nice, sounds well, the kids love it

So far it has a beautiful sound

My 17 yr old loved the sound and she made it sing.......

All that said, playing has been fun despite the very scratchy sounds I am getting (that I don't get when I play a better violin

The sound is GREAT!

As expected for price, can't fault sound at the cost

He was able to quickly replace the ring, tune it up and for the first time I heard a decent sound that my violin could produce without worry that the bridge would fall

Sound is good and so far I did not have any issue with the bridge or keeping it tuned

When playing sounds amazing very much would purchase another one.

Simply and a nice sound.

The sound isn't great, so long notes and vibrato don't really hold up, making it much better suited as a fiddle in old time or bluegrass music than as a classical violin

It has a beautiful clear and warm sound

The bridge hardly stays up and the sound is not good

It has a great sound, although hollow due to the wood, and projects great with that string upgrade (that is key)

This violin is certainly for beginners, but not recommended at all for intermediate or advanced players as it becomes difficult to play, feel, and admire the sound.

The violin has a good sound

We replaced the strings and that improved the sound

Has a good sound.

The shoulder rest does not work for me, the bow is really stiff and makes a grainy sound compared to my $10 bow

once I coould do it, the sound improved a lot, perfect for begginers.

At first I was pretty impressed by the look and even the sound wasn't terrible but as the violin was played more and more stress cracks began to surface from the sides of the violin, was not very impressed anymore as you could imagine.

The sound is very good for an amateur player like myself, again I was more interested in working on one being an amateur woodworker and furniture maker

The sound is surprisingly good for the

We love it; very well made with good sound

Bought for my son to use for violin lessons, it doesn't even make sound when you drag the bow across it

No better way to get your kid not to like playing violin than buying a cheapo that doesn't make decent sound

When in tune, it has beautiful sound, and it resonates really good for it's price

it is amazingly beautiful and the sounds is very pretty

it will make good sound.

It’s no Stradivarius - but it IS well built, cheap, and it produces an amazing sound

But after some practice I've found that this violin can produce a really nice sound!

Great sound!!

Decent sound considering the price

Great price, but it is unplayable when it comes to making a decent sound

The sound is pretty awesome for a $70 violin, honestly

We can actually make decent sound plucking the strings

She started lessons in August and the sound is pretty nice, nice enough that it was pleasant even when she might be a little scratchy.

Great sound, Elligant look, and overall a great instrument

I expected a lot of screeching, and instead it has a beautiful, mellow sound

The bow had to be really worked upon before it could make any meaningful sound.

For being a cheaper item it has great sound and a great fit

It has good sound for the price, but I would suggest immediately investing in better strings.

If the rosin is properly administered with strong, careful bow strokes, it will adhere to the string producing a clear sound

Was able to put a violin pickup on it as well to record music and the sound is amazing

the sound isn't that good

produces great and classic sound

Sound is not good...but its a pink violin for a low price

The sound isn't terrible but it can be hard to keep in tune.

It is surprisingly attractive and looks very nice, but your child will soon get frustrated that they cannot get a good sound out of the instrument

Sound is awful and the setup is so poor the things won't stay in tune

The sound is terrible

Switch out the strings for better ones and the sound is fine.

The sound is terrible, as well

Wow didn't realize how much better the Eastman sounds

I also have a very nice sound system with high bit rate classical music

If I play incredibly carefully I can sometimes get an almost decent sound out of it, but usually not

It looks nice, makes a decent sound, comes with an extra bridge (not sure I'll need it), and I have not come across anything that somehow impedes my learning

, I heard that it's possible to improve this cheap violin to a degree:Bridge can be upgraded and it will improve the sound, to a degree,Strings can be upgraded and it will improve the sound, to a degree,Rosin can be upgraded and it will improve the sound, to a degree andBow can be upgraded and it will improve the sound, to a degree

Terrible sound no matter what

I have been playing guitar and other instruments for a number of years and was looking to pick up violin as I love the sound

- I didn't like the sound the strings made either

After having this violin for a while i realize that is has the worst sound possible compared to other violins i have seen and played

I know there will be a day when her sounds will be beautiful!

The Mendini with the Pirastro Tonicas sounded very clear, and has as nice sound

Not a bad sound for the price

Sound is great

Sound is good

This violin has a very beautiful sound the bridge came installed and came with a backup bridge thank you.

The spacing between the string grooves at the peg box is not even, doesn’t affect the sound but bothers my OCD side

It arrived on time and I am very pleased with the quality of workmanship and the sound is excellent

The sound is lovely and the cost is less than renting one and if another of my kids wants to

Makes good sound and just setting it up helps u learn about violins.

Strings didn't produce good sound at all

Makes a very nice sound

The sound is good enough

But this is a great bargain for a real violin with great sound.

I'll admit, I wasn't sure what to expect with this being so inexpensive, but it tuned up well and produces beautiful, full sounds

Students become accustomed to the bad sound and the instrument actually prevents them from growing/learning at an acceptable rate

This was looks beautiful, is easy to tune, and frankly, has a better sound that my neighbor's $1700 violin

It makes good sound, the reviews on Youtube is good

The color was rich and the sound was amazing

My daughter's teacher loves the sound.

Honestly, I didn't bother to educate myself on this instrument and what to know before purchasing one, I just relied upon some of the seemingly fair-sounding reviews in here and, admittedly on sheer impulse, decided to purchase it and give it a try

was delivered in time and in perfect condition, nice instrument and very good sound for its price

Bow strings a little frayed but has good sound

I wrote the music teacher a note asking if this instrument was okay for my daughter to use for the remainder of the school year and he got back to me saying that no, this was never going to produce a decent sound and that if I wanted to purchase instead of rent, he highly recommended purchasing from a music store and not purchasing online.

Just as advertised, decent sound for a child's first instrument

Otherwise it produces a decent sound and comes with good accessories.

Really bad sound

My daughter enjoys the sound of this one.

Being a violinist, the sound of this instrument is much more important than the looks.

We haven't needed to replace any strings, so I cannot comment on the strings quality but if they are the same as the ones on the violin, they are fine, they make sounds... just not great sounds.

I think it has a good sound

My daughter's music teacher found it easy to tune and it has a nice sound

The violin is made well and produces nice bright sound, not so rounded and rich like the more advanced violins, but this is to be expected

Good sound

Rollin lasts for a long time and to be honest if your serious about learning how to play, you want to have a good sound coming out of your violin right off the bat

It has decent sound to an untrained ear and maybe one day I'll try to learn myself!

This 1/2 size violin actually has a slightly better sound

my daughters music teacher has been playing in orchestras for generations now and was surprised by this product, saying it has a much better sound and quality then the earlier versions

Nice violin, good sound.

It really saddens me when I see enthusiastic students who are very eager to learn their instrument suffer because they cannot produce a decent sound

Decent sound for $60

Small size violins as such do not make good sound like the full size and this was awful

Sound isn't too bad either

My Daughter loves it thank U A Ton

Thank U a
