Product Description
Includes free featherweight Carrying Case, with Strap and Carrying Handle, and Rosin. Four fine tuners. Accessory colors/style may vary. Violin has Pearwood Fingerboard and Deluxe Jujube Wood Chinrest and other Accessories. Ideal for beginning students! Here are some hints to help keep your violin in tune:1. Although the violins come with a bridge, it is not installed. Installing a bridge should not be too difficult, but if you have a problem, please email us. The bridge has to be installed for the violin to play correctly. 2. Strings do tend to slip and lose their tune on a new violin because they need to stretch. If this happens, just give it time. This does NOT mean that the violin is defective. The strings just need time to settle in. 3. If the violin pegs keep slipping, try to push the peg in while turning it. If they still dont stay in, peg drops are available at most music stores. They are relatively inexpensive and should help the pegs stay in. 4. If a strand of hair breaks on the bow, take a pair of nail clippers and cut it from the frog (bottom of the bow) or the top of the bow. A few hairs are bound to fall out with play. Remember to rub a little rosin (included) on the bow before playing.

3 out of 5 stars a real (but cheap) violin at a very cheap price   January 9, 2007

Really you don't expect much for 49$, but this is a real violin with case and bow that really plays. It wasn't "ready to play" when I received it. The violin comes unstrung (but strings included). I had to redrill the holes for the tuning pegs and place the bridge (also included). So, if you are a parent unfamiliar with violins, I couldn't recommend it unless you have a friend to help you put it all together. But to get a new working violin for this price would otherwise be hard to duplicate.
