I puchased a 1/8 violin for my grandson. It is set up and ready to go. Tuning is a bit of a challenge on a violin so small. Cant really rate it yet as it hasnt been used but was very happy with the price.

Although it is absolutely beautiful there were a few small issues. The instruction that came with it need to be more explanatory. While they give you a brief idea of how to assemble the violin they do not explain how to place the bridge, use the tuning pegs, and setup the bow well enough for someone who has never picked one up.
The case and all other parts and accessories are fantastic for beginners. The digital tuner needs instructions though.

I debated over buying this for a while before I finally gave in and I'm so excited I did! It was here within three days which was awesome! I'm a first time violin player so it was a little tricky to put together and tune and everything but I think I got the hang of it. It's beautiful and has (as far as I can tell) clear enough sound quality. Nothing is broken or scratched, and I think the light packing is fine since it's in its case too.

The only thing is, like other reviewers have said, you definitely get what you pay for. It only came with a fine tuner on one string so the others will never sound just right, and as soon as I started to put the rosin on the bow a string fell out of that (though it was only one so it's totally fine). The violin itself is great except for a few details; there's a little bit of glue misplaced on the fingerboard, and the back of the neck is a completely different color (for some reason???), but it's nothing that I think will affect learning to play.
All in all, it's perfect for a beginner. I'm 22 (so I got a 4/4) and just wanted to pick up a new hobby. Everything to get you started is here and in working order, plus it came with handy directions. If you're looking for perfection, maybe go a little higher quality, but if you're a newbie like me, you seriously won't find a better deal.
The only reason I bought this, is because I always wanted to try playing a violin/fiddle. As to quality, or playability, I can't comment, yet. Everything is in place, It has a nice, symmetrical appearance, and it looks like all of the other violins I've seen. There were a couple of additional accessories included (strings, tuner, etc.). And, if I had a clue what I was doing, I'm sure it would make some sort of noise. That is Step 2 on my list.
I'm satisfied with the purchase just thrilled with the shipping time line,was very fast I did not expect to be so quick for the product to arrive.
Thank you good service
The product came as it was displayed in the web and it arrived in time, but three horse tail hairs were loose in the bow and dangling from one end.
It came in a slightly different color but in good condition
Great for a beginner. Came super quickly. Only problem was the rosin was broken and the violin had some scratches.
One piece is a tad small but overall great.
It looks like a great instrument, but we have to have the bridge trimmed.
