 beginner violin June 24, 2008
I purchased this violin for my four yr old grandson. My daughter is a band teacher and wanted to teach him to play the violin. The product arrived in just a few days and was easy to tune and play. He practices on it almost every day. They are both very pleased with the product. It came complete with everything he needed. It is a very good beginner violin for a child. The price was unbeatable.
The Pro's and Con's that I see. December 30, 2007
I brought the ViolinFactory for my grand child who fell in love with the Instrument from the start. The violin is very light in weight, making it easy for a child to handle for hours on end. I myself have no clue about how to tune or play a violin, so I had to search the internet on how to tune the strings. For what I found, one would think this info would have came with the Instrument itself. I also had no clue on how important the cake of rosin that comes with the unit is so thats a plus. At this point in time I'm still not sure if I placed the bridge on the right way, this info is not included in the limited info that is shipped with the unit. in fact if you don't know what a bridge is for you just might throw it away thinking it was a piece unfinish wood. The carry case is well made with plenty of space for extra items you may need or want to have. Would I buy this unit again if I had to..probley so.

This violin never worked right. It needed to be put together, and we never were able to get any decent sound out of it, even rosining the bow with what we were sent. It's basically just a dust collector.

I purchased this for my daughter. She has taken great care of the instrument. We had the instrument for a month when as her violin instructor was tuning the instrument the back of the violin came apart. Austin Bazaar would not refund or exchange the item. I would not order anything from them again. It is cheap, there is a reason for that.
Great Customer Service at Austin Bazaar! February 10, 2007

When I first tried to tune the violin I applied pressure to the D peg and the scroll broke from the fingerboard! It wasn't a lot of pressure so I assume there was a crack or a weak spot in the wood. Needless to say I contacted (emailed) customer support and was pleasantly surprised when they agreed to replace the violin at no charge (not even shipping)! The new violin arrived and I was able to tune it fine. My five year old son has been performing around the house almost everyday!
Now a word about the quality. Would I buy this brand to perform professionally? No. This is an inexpensive introduction to the violin - it is a massed produced product that I think is wonderful at this price. Beautiful to look at and my son loves it - nuff said.
