A disappointment and a dead end
3/5

As a present for my son I got this I am learning the viola as a beginner. Back in my younger days, I played viola. We did have no issues with the setup (since the strings had been loosened before In only a month, the voila seemed to lack any vibrance while playing. I thought it sounded 'dead' Hard to play, and hard to master. There is a violin shop close by - I took it there In that case, I decided to get a new one after an assessment was conducted. There was a slight difference in price between this one and the viola at the local shop (perhaps If I had shopped locally first, or aimed a bit higher, I would have gotten a better deal. In addition to donating this viola to a local group that will likely rework it before placing it in a new home, I also donated a small piano.

Viola student with excellent skills
5/5

I decided to try one for my 11-year-old son after completing hours of research and talking with a music instructor who actually uses one of these. His third year of playing viola is an important milestone for him. A solidly built instrument, the setup is straight forward, and the tuning is impressive. I highly recommend this instrument due to its excellent tone and playability. In this price range, it represents a very good value. The instructor of the Viola he has now is looking into recommending these SVA-G tips The 200's went to the parents of the student. Her favorite aspects of the music were the sounds, the setup, and its The sound instrument is a musical (If comparing to similar models designed for professionals is wrong though this is a superb product, an $800+ purchase represents not only It's very different to buy a $2,000 viola full size, not to mention a very large The instrument is a solid choice for students.

It's a decent instrument for the basics
3/5

Beginners will find this to be a solid instrument for the price. I was able to properly set it up and work as soon as I arrived. We expected a fair tone, but it is suitable for the message. This book is not intended for students in middle or upper school. It will be up to them to do this He used this viola for a while and it performed well, but now he's playing an intermediate to advanced instrument from our violin shop, and the new one is gorgeous. Could you tell me what I should do? Go to a music store that specializes in violins or violas first. (not a music store that carries a variety of items) They will have a great selection of beginner instruments, a trade-up option, and knowledgeable staff. As part of our service, we tune up the instrument every year.

The value of our program is better than the quality of our students
5/5

The best value you can get. It may be more accurate to describe the instrument as Intermediate than Student since it's not at the professional level. You can play it from high school through college and beyond if you don't have professional aspirations as a violist.

It's also a nice, complete set - it comes with a stand and case as well. In addition to its functionality, the case seems solid but light in weight. The bow is a good match for the instrument as well.

Our expectations were not met
3/5

The luthier is recommending that the bridge be reinstalled on this viola, since it was delivered with a higher bridge and the grooves for the strings are farther apart than usual. Apparently the strings were not the original brand of strings. It has been worked on, strings have been replaced, and the finger board has been refinished These violas have been adapted to make playing them more comfortable. The new price is going to be as high as the original one.

I'm really impressed with your student work, It was a present for my son, who is ten years old
5/5

He has just acquired his first instrument. I found the price to be excellent and it was less than 1/3 of the cost of renting a Viola from the local string shop. It took us online research to find out where to put the bridge and how to With the exception of one string, all of the strings could be tuned using my electronic guitar tuner. In addition to tuning the last string with a piano, I also have a dulcimer. In the process of placing the bridge, tightening the stings, and tuning, the whole process took about 1/2 hour. By looking up "bridge" and "tuning a viola," I found step-by-step instructions online. Online instructions for how to do it are available. I was able to accomplish this task by searching online about how to achieve the correct size for my son to begin playing. My son has now been playing this Viola There are no words to describe how much he The teacher of his instrument states that it is the best instrument in the Viola section at our school because it has really good fine tuners, and it sounds great. The viola would make a great student instrument for anyone looking for a high quality There is also a music book compartment on this Viola, as well as the bow, case, and rosens. Despite our purchase being very expensive, we are very happy with it.

It is a true delight to hear the tone and build of this song
5/5

There's something very appealing about this viola, which has a dark tone yet a very powerful sound. Violins and violas from Cremona are extremely affordable In my case, all three went above and beyond my expectations at their respective price points. Despite the fact that Cremona violins are made in China, their parent company, Saga corp, is based in the United States. This company pays a lot of attention to detail and maintains a high level of They offer inlaid purfling on every instrument they sell, from the cheapest to the most expensive There is no drawing on it. A very high level of quality is evident among the pegs, tailpiece, chin rest, and fine tuners. A very important feature is that the wood is selected, dried, and aged carefully and has a very tight grain pattern while still feeling lighter than you would expect (a good These instruments have been copied from fine Cremonese instruments in terms of their proportions, arches, and wood work. I was so stunned by the example I received, in fact, that I would argue the next level represents a very subtle It is an intermediate instrument with the heart of a (semi)professional instrument. It's a color that I adore, and not least of all because of the red varnish in the golden age hue of the Stradivari. Do I need to mention the beauty of this viola? In spite of all that, its wonderful, deep, rich tone is the most absorbing part of it A tenor or a baby cello would be a wonderful comparison.
