My daughter loves her violin . I got this violin because she just started lessons in school and this was an intro violin and not costly as she determines her interest level. She has been using it for a week now so far so good
As an adult hoping to teach myself the instrument I'd chosen the Glarry 4/4 cello based on the better reviews I've seen. All in all I'm quite content with it, no tuning issues, the strings took tune without snapping on me which has happened a few times with economically priced instruments in the past, I'm happy with the general look and feel of the instrument and I'm confident with adjustments I should be quite happy with it.

I do feel like I'm going to need to make a few adjustments, the bridge primarily as it seems a little high and I'll need to shorten it if I want to have an action length of 68-69cm from nut to bridge as the 70.5cm length this instrument seems to be set up to take based on the position of the soundboard and height of the strings off of the end of the fingerboard, it results in a larger distance between notes which is a bit less comfortable than the shorter action length. I'm hoping not to have to adjust the soundpost as it was placed but I get the feeling it might be necessary to do so in addition having to modify the height of the bridge.
Glarry does recommend taking the instrument to a luthier for final adjustment in the little manual it comes with so I'll credit them for that, but for people who like to do everything themselves I do want to mention that some adjustments like above might be necessary to get the best playability.
All in all though, I'm optimistic that baring some big issue with making the little changes I plan to it should be a solid instrument and I'm quite happy with it so far.
I bought the violin for my daughter who is learning for the 1st time this year. Her music teacher helped her get it all set up. It's beautiful and she is so excited to learn how to play.
The product matched its description. The shipment was quick. It's of good quality and very affordable. My daughter is learning to use it at school as she is part of the orchestra, which is a great beginning.
Really impressed by this cello. Absolutely great price for an entry level instrument. You can learn cello basics without breaking the bank. I am an experienced musician (35 years, with 30 on guitar) and an amateur luthier. I've also wanted to lean the cello but could never rationalize the purchase price until I found Glarry Music.

I've also wanted to lean the cello but could never rationalize the purchase price until I found Glarry Music. This is certainly an entry level instrument, as I look back at my very first electric guitar. There were no defects due to shipping but I did find the tailpiece had an issue with the fine tuners. I reached out right away and worked out a solution with Glarry Customer Service within 24 hours. I read several reviews about tuning instability, I've had no real problems- it is a stringed instrument, you have to tune it! The fine tuners are not the best, but once you spend the time getting it in tune, it may only go up or down a few percent.
I'm very satisfied with the decision to purchase this cello from Glarry Music.
Now I am looking at their line of violins and guitar build kits.
Upon opening the box the violin case was completely covered in mildew inside the case everything seemed fine I rosined the bow and was able to play for about 2 days and then the frog broke in half on the bow overall I'm happy to have gotten to play for the time that I did but sad the case was gross and the frog broke on me

I was finally made two offers, 1) a one-hundred dollar partial refund, 2) Go find someone to fix it and they would reimburse me the repair cost. They had already developed such ill-will and suspiciousness with me that I declined the offers. I'll get by.

I've previously had good experiences with Glarry Music, but my recent viola purchase was disappointing. The viola arrived without a bridge, making it unplayable. When I contacted customer service, I was instructed to purchase a bridge myself through Amazon, which was frustrating. Although they promised a refund of $10.76 to cover the cost, I still haven't seen the refund in my account. This lack of follow-through has been both inconvenient and frustrating.

I couldn't be happier. It is beautiful, can't wait to start my lessons. I will definitely tell people about your website. Thank you for a speedy delivery.
Very nice for a beginner! Took a star off only because the bridge wasn't set and it only came with 2 fine tuners. Everything else though was way better than expected!
The violin itself looks beautiful. About the only flaw is the varnish (or whatever the clear coat is) coating had a drip on it shaped like an icicle. My bow kept getting caught in it and I kept braking hairs on my bow. I thought it was me at fault. But, when I realized it was the clear coat, I just took some very fine sand paper and sanded it away. Haven't broken a hair on my bow since. I only broke 6 hairs, so I'm okay.

I only broke 6 hairs, so I'm okay. It takes at least a week for the strings to settle, After that, it holds a reasonable tune. Make sure you lubricate the fine tuner screws. I use a guitar product called Tune It. For a bargain violin, this is a good instrument. I'm happy with it.
This full-size acoustic black cello was a birthday present to my best friend who turned 30 on his birthday and he has been wanting a cello for as long as I have known him. When he opened the case and saw the cello, he was speechless and for him, that was a FIRST. The cello is magnificent in its style and appearance. The quality is above reproach and has made both my friend and me very happy with the cello. Thank you for producing such an outstanding musical instrument.
The bow broke within two days, the bridge is a little high and the strings are not the best. A good starting cello but could be better if you put a little money into it to get a new bow, bridge and strings. Good for the price and is playable
As a mother of a beginner musician, I was worried when I bought this instrument because I have no knowledge of it. But end up been the best decision, this instrument has allowed to learn and express in beautiful melodies, is worth the money you will invest in it.
I've been wanting to learn how to play the cello and finally decided to give it a shot with this student cello. I was nervous because this is my first time buying a musical instrument online. It arrived well packaged with not a scratch or ding. All this for a cello newbie and so far I'm off to a great start! The sound is lovely. All in all, I'm very pleased with my purchase!
This was bought for me as a gift. I am a beginner, never have played a string instrument before. I love this violin. So far, have practiced for 4-5 hours over 3 days. The sound is very good. Overall extremely pleased and love this violin!
This instrument is a complete starting violin. It is for beginners and sound quality because its new and I'm a little uncertain - but I like it -recommended.
Great for beginner and not so expensive if changes mind. I am actually learning to play (senior adult) and glad I could afford it. Something I've always wanted to learn and enjoying every minute!
I really do love this violin so far. I've only had it for less than a week and I'm already getting the feel of it down pretty good. I'm consider changing the strings and use the peg dope, give it a few days to really settle in before making your judgement, as I think it's a great practice violin and I plan to use it to play in front of family as well. As for the bow! Rosin the heck out of it first. Enjoy!
I have recently started playing again after 35 years. I needed something to do. I always loved playing when I was younger. This viola has great sound of you're just needing to learn or to just have one to play this is a great idea for sure.
I was so hesitant about this purchase and I am so happy I bought it. I am really pleased with it.
If you are a music lover, you should like and protect your instrument. Violin strings are very important, and the violin can't play wonderful music without the strings.
Good strings should have good sound quality, fast tuning, stable pitch, good playability (fingers feel safe, strings react quickly) and long life. The strings used by different instruments are different, and the material of the strings greatly affects the tone of the instrument. The tension of the string is necessary for the string. The tension level is generally divided into five levels: ultra-low, low, medium, high and ultra-high. The higher the tension, the thicker the string. The thicker the strings, the more mellow the sound.
When you are using an instrument, you first need to learn how to adjust the strings, followed by the installation of the code and the use of the bow, especially for beginners of a musical instrument.
