Violin Set

My daughter just started playing the violin and she is so excited about it!!! I think I will get her this set for her birthday next month. Hopefully we will get a good one. I like that it is real music in the books. [img]smile.gif[/img]

I bought one for a friend of mine whose father had died recently. He played the violin. She told me that it looked exactly like her father's. That good enough of an endorsement for me so I bought one for myself.

I come from a family of violinists, violists, and cellists! I love this set.

However, it is hard to find one where the bridge has not collapsed. At AGPNY last winter, I had to open at least 7 or 8 boxes before finding one to my liking. I'd recommend ordering it from a PS and asking her to put a little extra padding in the box to protect it. Otherwise, just pick it up yourself at AGP.

I used to play the violin and have it is is SOOO cool! Just like the real thing! The rosin, bridge, strings EVERYTHING! I so recomend it to anyone!

Its definitely worth buying. We have the violin set and hope to someday own the flute set. The detail is pretty amazing.

I play the violin and I got the little one for Christmas a long time ago. The wooden part is well made. The strings are just regular wire, and the bow hair on mine came really loose (you can't tighten it, of course). You can't actually play any really good sounding stuff on it, but it looks nice and it is very accurate.

I also have the flute, but the keys don't move at all and it is solid, so you can't make it produce any sound. Again, it is very cute though!
