Would recommend...
I re took up the violin after many years break as another hobby whilst being in lockdown through covid. Wasn’t sure if I could remember how to play again so didn’t want to spend a fortune in case I struggled with it. After changing a couple of things like the strings to a recommended brand, and a different bow, I really love this. Once connected to a decent amp it gives out a great sound. The pickup is really good and looks good too. A great violin at a very reasonable price.

My first violin!
I have wanted to learn violin for decades but, I have always been put off by the high cost of a new instrument. Especially considering I don't know if I can even learn to play it, or not. So, imagine my surprise when I saw this one on the Thomann website!
I have had it for almost three months now. In that time, I have learned a handful of scales, in first position. I have also learned bits of several songs that I like. I am working on moving between strings, as I play, without making any odd noises along the way. Overall, I'm having a great time learning and, I think it's safe to say, I'm hooked on violin now!
I can't really evaluate the quality of the instrument because it's the only one I've ever held, or played. I will say that the shoulder rest likes to fall off and I've had to secure it in place with a strip of Velcro. Now, I've since learned that Violinists complaining about the shoulder rests is nothing new, so, maybe it's not a big deal. But, for that reason I gave 4 stars on the quality. Otherwise, I can play it without plugging in, when I don't want to disturb anyone else in the house, or, I can plug it in and disturb EVERYONE in the house, if I want to! :D
In my opinion, it's a great first violin. It's also good for practicing by yourself, which is mostly what I do with it.
