This review has been selected by our experts as particularly helpful.
i love this violin. it plays just like a traditional but has the capacity to be much much more than traditional. Fender really hit a home run with this great instrument!
Sound
Sound is great, lots of room for your own technique, not over powering. Plays great, easy to move around the fingerboard and loads of fun. I learn new things to do with it everyday, great product.
Features
Not too many features, but most of the ones are great. Only bad thing is the shoulder rest, mine keeps falling out if i take it off of my shoulder for too long.
Ease of Use
very easy to use, i learn new things every time i play it. its a blast.
Quality
ive had mine for about a year now and it still sounds just as good as the first day. No scratches, blemishes, nothin. still gorgeous.
Value
value is no doubt one of the best on the market, great price for such a nice instrument.
Manufacturer Support

The Wow Factor
