The instrument arrived on time—faster than expected. My kiddo is a first-time player, and his teacher approved this purchase, noting that it's good quality. So far, it's been great! There were a few hiccups with the order, but the customer service team was extremely helpful, responsive, and resolved each issue quickly, which I really appreciate. I would definitely recommend Glarry to anyone looking for an affordable instrument, especially for a beginner student.

The finish is beautiful. It's lightweight and easy to handle. The sound is decent for the price, though not as rich as a high-end model.

Hello,The violin arrived intact without dents, cracks, or warpage.the bridge was also in good condition however a strand of the bow hair was loose and I had to cut it which wasn't a big deal. I also wish the rosin cloth was slightly bigger to avoid application mishaps.other than its great and I'll definitely continue being a customer later down the line and thank for my instrument I'm happy.

Beautiful cello. It had problems, but the crew at Glarry helped me sort them out. Thx...

The cello arrived quickly and well-packaged. The matte finish is lovely. The strings were a bit low quality, so I upgraded them. Overall a good nstrument.

The violin looks fantastic, but mine needed some setup before it was playable. Once tuned properly, the sound is okay.

The matte finish is stylish, though I wish it were a bit smoother. Overall, very happy with my purchase.

The strings aren't top-tier. Once replaced, this violin really shines.

Nice design and functionality. It's not a professional-grade instrument, but for practice and fun, it's perfect.

Good value for the price. The tone is clear, especially through an amp. One suggestion: the included rosin could be higher quality, but overall, a fantastic starter electric cello.

Tuning pegs took a bit of adjusting at first, but once set, the sound was consistent and pleasant.

The bridge and strings needed slight adjustment, but overall, a fantastic value violin.

Good beginner cello, especially for the price. The strings needed a little breaking in, but overall it's playable. Sturdy, and visually impressive.

The violin looks great and works fine when plugged in, but the acoustic sound is really weak. Also, some parts felt a bit flimsy out of the box. Decent for beginners.

This viola offers excellent value for the price. The craftsmanship is solid, and it came with all the necessary accessories. The only minor issue was tuning stability, but after a few adjustments, it's been playing well.

Needed some tuning, the sound was warm and clear. Worth it for the price.

The case and bow are decent quality. The violin plays well after a setup.

A very good violin for beginners. The bow needs to be rosined for a long time before it can produce sound. The pegs will slip and require a lot of force to push in. The sound quality is pretty good though, and the surface is clean and even in color.

It needed a bit of adjustment out of the box. Once set up, it plays okay. Good budget option, just don't expect perfection.

I love my new viola. It was cheap, but it's not a crappy instrument. The only thing is one of my C strings sounds a little off but still fine. I love that it comes with a case, a bow, rosin. I'm very happy with my purchase.

It's a decent beginner instrument, one of the fine tuners was a little loose, but nothing major.

I briefly owned a cheap cello, bought from one of the major online sellers and it was so bad I ended up donating it to a thrift store, so I was reluctant to buy another cheap priced cello, but after watching a professional cellist playing and reviewing a Glarry cello online I decided to give the GC201 cello a try; it arrived today, in perfect condition and I'm very happy with it; it's very well made, it plays well and only a minor bridge adjustment will be needed, for me; it's very good overall ...

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 br ...

Rosin crumbled into tiny pieces on the 1st use ! Other than that the violin is satisfactory for the price paid and was easy to set up .

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 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

The cello looks beautiful and has a soft, mellow sound. It took a few days to settle in after tuning, but now it holds pitch well. Great customer support too!

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!

This is not a professional viola, obviously. You're not paying for the expert craftsmanship and beautiful sound that you'd get from a 1k+ instrument. However, for the price, this is the way to go. Great for beginners!
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.
