Subject:Quality for the price
Quality: The only dislike I have is with the position of the shoulder rest. I feel it could be moved closer to the end of the bout to fit the shoulder better. Even with my large frame( i'm 6'8"), the position is somewhat uncomfortable.
Reliability: This has been an exceptional violin. I play and practice every day and it has been very reliable. I use a wireless "bug" which completely eliminates any chord from draping over my shoulder, so there is even less tension on the jack.
Overall: A very good product for the money. I am quite pleased with the tone and performance of this violin.
Playability and Feel: Smooth and fast. The violin seems very well balanced, and not too heavy for lengthy playing.
Tone: The piezo has good response. Sometimes it seems a little bright, but it is not unbearable, and I always allow for adjustment both on the instrument and the amp, to allow for any contigency.
Finish: Finish is very good, and I always get compliments on the looks.
Action: Almost perfect for my taste
Skill Level: Semi-Pro
