Very beautiful cello. I had the bridge carved and adjusted at a local music store and I also purchased different strings that were of better quality. It has a great sound that resonates very well.
Beautiful in looks and sound! I have never set up or played a new cello and haven't played in 49 years. The setup was quick and easy and it takes a few days for the instrument and strings ti adjust and stretch. Fantastic experience!!
Gorgeous Violin with many extras, I can hardly wait to start playing it, but there are several other instruments I have bought from Glarry recently that are also demanding my time, much appreciated!
At first I did not have much hope when buying such a cheap violin since I have been playing the piano for 4 years and I know the importance of having a quality instrument but in the end it exceeded all my expectations. It only took about 15 minutes to have the violin completely ready to play. I started playing and I started taking classes with a teacher and I haven't had any problems and also if you know how to tune it well you will stay in tune all week
Got this cello for my wife for Christmas, and she loves it. It sounds good for a starter cello, and looks good as well. Black Friday deal and we received incredible value for our money. I had a local shop set it up properly for $40. Very happy with the purchase and would definitely recommend as a starter cello.
While my granddaughter's cello was on back order and wasn't received in time for Christmas, Glarry stayed in constant contact with me to follow up on my order. When we received it, it was worth the wait! Starting with the beautiful case we were amazed at the quality for such a reasonable price. I would definitely order from Glarry again.
I am giving this 5 stars because for a starter cello it is better than I expected it to be. The strings it came with are not high quality by any means but they are good even to start with. It took about 5 days for the strings to stretch and the whole instrument to settle so it would stay in tune. I used peg dope on the pegs and oiled the fine tuners like I would do to the violins. It stays in tune and sounds decent for a cheap instrument. I ordered a better bow before I even received the cello s ...I am giving this 5 stars because for a starter cello it is better than I expected it to be.

It stays in tune and sounds decent for a cheap instrument. I ordered a better bow before I even received the cello since I had read so many reviews about cheap cellos coming with unusable bows. I was surprised when this arrived the the bow wasn't warped or twisted. The wooden bow it came with is usable. Not as well balanced as the carbon fiber bow I bought but still something you could start learning with. The bridge isn't perfect but it is pretty close to fitting the instrument. It would only need a small adjustment from a luthier. I am using it just how it is and don't have a huge complaints. The string height is correct. I was also happy with the shipping. I think it took about a week but I live in Maine and this shipped from California. There were a couple dings on the box but zero damage to the instrument. Not even a scratch. This is the cello I will suggest in the future to people that want something cheap to learn with.
I bought this violin for my son for Christmas. It was very easy to get setup and actually produced a great sound without too much trouble. It is a great choice for a beginner for the price. I was pleased with the quality of the product and the shipping was very fast which was also very good. I will be buying more products from Glarry Music!
So, first and foremost, for a beginner violin, it appears to be of a decent quality for the price. The shipping was very fast as well. This violin is for a student learning to play so this is just ideal. There is one downside to this violin as I recent discovered. This violin only has 1 fine tuner. Attempting to tune this violin with the tuning pegs WILL result in broken strings. I suggest to anyone considering this as a beginner violin to invest the $15 in a set of matching fine tuners to preve ...So, first and foremost, for a beginner violin, it appears to be of a decent quality for the price.

This violin only has 1 fine tuner. Attempting to tune this violin with the tuning pegs WILL result in broken strings. I suggest to anyone considering this as a beginner violin to invest the $15 in a set of matching fine tuners to prevent breaking your strings. Would this one aspect keep me from discouraging anyone from buying? Not at all. Its a minor inconvenience more than anything. One that can be avoided if prepped properly. Overall, even with a set of fine tuners.....can you really argue the cost for a beginner violin? I can't. Its a good product for a beginner.
It has been a pleasure ordering from Glarry. I ordered a violin for the grandchild. Two days later I placed a 2nd order for the same violin. Glarry contacted me because they were concerned that it was a duplicate order. I was impressed. I assured them that I placed a second order for the second child. There are few companies that are that conscientious. When the violins arrived within a few days ,again, I was impressed. The violins were beautiful. Just as they described on their website.

I know two little girls who will be so happy on Christmas morning. I can't say enough wonderful things about Glarry. I'm glad I took the chance and placed my order. Thank you for your wonderful customer service.
I ordered the 4/4 size and am overwhelmed with the quality of the instrument especially the bridge it's well shaped and quality ten out of ten would buy again
Arrived in 2 days in perfect condition. Came with EVERYTHING needed to play violin. Violin is full size and sounds great. I cannot speak to the quality compared to higher priced violins however it plays perfectly and is a very cost effective way to begin or try out violin.
It's really feel happy for the great support got from the management team for all my queries/clarifications and also product was properly packed, received without any damage.
Also performance wise, my kid enjoyed a lot and felt happy that was working fine.
Thanks a lot for the good quality product.
The package arrived quickly and was just as described. I will definitely do business here again. Only issue was a nick in the wood at the head of the violin but that might have been from shipping.
Truly an amazing product, I simply cannot thank Glarry Music enough! My review has come a tad bit late but after nearly two months playing my cello I can honestly say it was very much worth it.
I was shopping for an electric cello and this one seemed promising, I liked the way it looked, so I purchased the GC301 however, after receiving and trying it I couldn't make it work the way it was intended; I contacted Glarry's customer service and after a few questions and explanation I was able to return it and received a refund; tough I wasn't satisfied with the instrument I'm very happy with their customer service and will not hesitate to buy another Glarry instrument; thank you!
Arrived in great condition! Cello is exactly as described. Some of the reviews I've read prior to purchasing said it doesn't stay in tune. I only partially agree with that. At first it was hard to keep in tune, but as I played it more and the strings settled in, it's proven to stay in tune just fine. Love the quality, and especially for the cost. Very pleased.
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
The violin is very good. Just the color of the violin I received is not the same as the picture shown here.
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.
