Artino 5 Hole Cello Endpin Stop - Rosewood Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Perhaps it is because I have seen a similar product of bigger sizes. I was disappointed when I received this endpin stop. The wood pieces are 7"x2.75" and 0.25" thick. The endpin holes are relatively small. Therefore you need to remove the endpin rubber to use it.
The craftsmanship is good. If you like a light weight design, this product might be good for you. But personally I still think $20 is too expensive.
I learned the lesson to buy anything online only when the seller gives clear description of an item. A good picture is never good enough!

The Original Bernardel Rosin Violin Viola NEW Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)For the last few years I've been using rosins such as Hidersine, Dominant, and the expensive Guillaume. But I had a nagging feeling I could still attain something better from my rosin. 6 months ago while I was looking for a new bow, I noted to myself mentally that the luthier used Bernardel rosin. So just last week I decided to order a cake of Bernardel. The results blew away my underwhelming conceptions of the impact of rosin!
I've had some difficulty with slow bowing near the bridge, for that really full sound. Honest as I can be, the second I put this stuff on, all scratching at the sound point nearest the bridge was completely eliminated, and my volume and fullness remarkably augmented.
I next attempted other types of bow strokes, and I became completely blown away by the compliance of this rosin. Literally new nuances have been added to my sound. The off-the string and bouncing strokes have acquired an unbelievable crispness of execution that I had honestly never even conceived. When I attempt ricochet across the four strings successively, the bow pops perfectly on each string, back and forth, with unbelievable articulation.
Employing this product has introduced me to the fact that your sound and your entire way of playing in regards to your right-hand can be revolutionized by a simple and small investment. I highly recommend Bernardel with my utmost confidence! Let me finally add that this rosin produces basically no dust with almost unnoticeable accretion of residue on the top plate and on the bow shaft.

Pirastro Wondertone Solo 4/4 Violin String Set - Medium Gauge with Loop End Steel E Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have been an immense fan of Pirastro's strings for over ten years and am always excited to try their new products. Thus, I purchased a set of Wondertones when they first came out a few years ago. But to be honest, I wasn't all that happy with them. Don't get me wrong, they are still better than most every other string that you will find (especially Dominant), but they just aren't quite as good as they could be. They lack the brillance and projection of the Evah Pirazzis or the rich, warm, almost dark tone of the Obligatos or Olivs.
If you are very particular about your violin strings, I would probably spend the extra $20 or so and pick up a set of Pirazzis or Obligatos.

Musaica Fine Fittings - Heart Shaped 4/4 Violin Pegs in Rosewood with Ebony Accents Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)When you first get them, there are no holes to out strings through, so you have to pay a luthier to do that. Then they are too big, so you have to get them fitted to your violin/viola. It gets expensive. ($40-$65) BUT!
They are beatiful! It is easier to tune to the most accurate! Fine tuners are a thing of the past (EXCEPT E String for violin, but viola take them all off)! 3 Stars for overall price, and good looks and accuracy.

Becker BB1 Violin Bridge 4/4 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is a typical maple 4/4 violin bridge. Mine actually showed up with a ding on the top edge. I just lowered the action a little by sanding down that edge and the nick was removed, but still . . . I wasn't happy being sold damaged goods. The inside scroll work looks good and the edges are crisp: I don't have any complaints otherwise.
This definitely isn't a drop in replacement. You will have to sand the feet to sit flatly against your sounding board since every violin is different. You'll also need to bevel the top edge and notch it to hold the strings. Do an internet search for how to fit a violin bridge and you should be able to do it yourself. The only supplies you need are a sheet of 220 grit sandpaper and razor blade / tiny file (to cut the notches).
I say 4 stars instead of 5 because of the minor top edge damage.

Jade (L'Opera) Rosin for Violin, Viola & Cello Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I recently bought this rosin (having never used it before) after using many different rosins such as kaplan, pirastro, light and dark hill, and others. This is DEFINATELY my favorite by far. great grip and doesn't produce much dust. I was using this to play on the Bach Cello Suites (arranged for viola) and it gave me great volume, and, I could play softly (on the string, not in) and not sound muffled or airy, due the wonderful tack of the rosin. BUY!!

Larsen Tzigane 4/4 Violin String Set - Medium Gauge with Ball-end E Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have been playing violin for 13 years and am very impressed with these strings. I researched everywhere about which strings I should buy and finally decided on these. I originally thought the price was a little bit on the expensive side, but I decided to go ahead with them. I have been using them very much for 3 weeks now and they are truly brilliant. They feel much more flexible than any other strings I have ever had. The G and D sound very strong and rich on my violin, the A is all-right (nothing special/nothing bad), and the E string is very Brilliant. All the strings have a very loud, but rich tones that bring a sounding confidence to my playing. They all respond well, but you do need to apply more rosin than it would take for all other strings. I have never written a review, but I always base what I buy off of the reviews and I am glad to say that I recommend these very much.

Larsen Tzigane violin strings, without exaggerated tension, are built on a newly developed composite fibre bundle core. Tension creates volume rather than carrying power. The unique combination of overtones makes for a quality sound not unlike that of a great singer - a sound that carries while, at the same time, is pleasant to the ear of the player. Tzigane strings offer a sound and response similar to gut strings, providing a broad range of tonal colors. A complex, rich tone with good focus and projection.
