Questions & Answers

Do you think you'll need a bow to go with this?

HI, I would like to make you aware that the Yamaha YEV104NT at this price does not come with a bow or case, but does come with strings and piano

It appears to be a five-string instrument but is it a four-string instrument?

A YEV104 NT is a 4-pin cable with a 4-pin connector Version of the string This is the 5th generation of the YEV105 NT Version (natural) of the string.

When it comes preassembled and ready to play, is it ready to go?

As we set up and test each instrument in our shop before shipping, if the violin is ordered through our seller store on Amazon, our luthier will stand up the bridge, shape it as needed, and perform a standard instrument setup (including testing the electronics) before shipping.

In the neck of the instrument, you can see a hook-like protrusion. What is that?

The wood base was designed with that in mind. The hook is more subtle and it's not as obvious as it seems. There is no problem with the instrument, either in its performance or use.

It is a beautiful instrument, great for quiet practice without headphones or an amplifier
5/5

Due to the fact that my spouse works at home, I had few options for practicing the violin. My favorite violin was the YEV-II because of the way it looked, so I wanted to try a silent violin or electric violin I've got an instrument number 104, but I don't have an amplifier, and headphones cannot be connected directly to this instrument. In fact, I was pleasantly surprised to find that the YEV-A15 provides a decent sound, though relatively silent You can't have a 104 without a power supply! Using my acoustic violin with a practice mute is like playing my acoustic violin with a practice violin. It's comfortable, and is a great fit for my shoulders so I can hear what I'm playing and feel my acoustic like a resonating wood. There is no YEV-related content currently available I am not able to tell the difference between the 104 and my acoustic violin, but it feels the same to me. I can fit my standard violin case into it. There are two types of YEVs It is beautiful to look at 104. I love the sculptural look of the frame, the infinity sign A loop like that caught my eye the first time I viewed it, so I had to play it. There will be a lot to see Perform with an instrument that catches the audience's attention. We would like to thank Instrumentpro for their amazing work The instrument looks like it is brand new! arrived fine In the afternoon on Saturday, it was packed. I am extremely happy with the I will write a follow-up in the next few days A full review will be done as soon as I have.

This is amazing! A classically trained violinist/fiddler who has been playing for over 60 years, I have an extensive repertoire
5/5

Among the electric violins that I've played, there is one that I consider excellent for the price. I have played a number of electrics, including the alleged It is almost free (1/4 the price) and is much better looking (and cheaper) than their products. satisfied with the service.

Unfortunately, the chin rest is not functioning correctly
3/5

The violin itself is wonderful. Having a great sound and being able to play it is a great feature. My chin rest cracked the very first time I played with it less than a week after I received it. is a problem that shouldn't have happened and reflects poorly on the violin, the seller, and Amazon. The situation needs to be corrected by someone.

I am very impressed with your The electric violin in this price range is the best in its class
5/5

A violin shop in Greenwich, Connecticut, had the instrument tuned and checked so it's ready for playing. It was so nice of them to leave a handwritten note for me. They are a company I'd like to do business with in the I really like the violin because it has such beautiful sound(if you use a good acoustic amplifier with it). The purchase was a great buy for me.

They look good and perform well for the price
5/5

They have a nice good sound and are well built. The price is excellent for an excellent sound system. There might be better ones out there, but for the price, you cannot go wrong.

Definitely at the top of the list
5/5

Playing SV 101 for years has been a great experience for me. Taking this step forward is a great accomplishment. Now I don’t have to compensate for the legendary preamp buzz and don’t need to cut back on my battery usage. The battery-free portable speaker features clean sound and a very cool new design. Yamaha, I don't know what I would do without you!.
