Cherrywood Violin Bow, 4/4 Size Review

I feel like I've spent hours trying to rosin this bow adequately. No matter how much rosin I apply I just can't get enough on the middle section of the bow to produce good tone. I purchased this as an interim bow to use while having my old one restrung, but ended up just having to wait for the repairs to be finished.

We aimed for a bargain on this one and got it. Had a hard time getting it to stay on the violin, and a piece finally broke off. I replaced it with another grip from a larger shoulder rest-- glad we had an extra around. Get this if you don't plan to need it long.

This does not include score. Whoever set it up on amazon did it wrong and this only comes with parts for 2 violins and violoncello

Beginner 1/4 Size Violin with Case and Accessories - Natural Review

Beginner 1/4 Size Violin with Case and Accessories - Natural
Average Reviews:

I guess I got what I paid for. The violin was poor quality & the bow was made with nylon instead of horsehair. After the 1st use the nylon threads on the bow started snapping & fraying. The tuning pegs don't stay in place & keep coming off. I don't reccomend this product.

Hameln 4/4 Violin with Spruce Top, Maple Back & Ebony Parts Review

Hameln 4/4 Violin with Spruce Top, Maple Back and Ebony Parts
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I purchased this violin for my wife, an adult over 50 and we have no children left at home. The children are married or off to college and do not live close by. I stated this because I didn't want anyone to think that some child was messing with this violin.
The violin has trouble keeping tuned. Also the bow cracked before my wife had a chance to use it. She is taking lessons from an elderly lady who has complained about the violin strings becoming loose too easily.
I would highly recommend looking for another product.

Pirastro Wondertone Solo 4/4 Size Violin String, Set With 26 Ga Ball E 4/4 Size Review

Pirastro Wondertone Solo 4/4 Size Violin String, Set With 26 Ga Ball E 4/4 Size
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Have tried quite a few brands of strings in the last few years. After using a few sets of evahs, started reading the descriptions again, gave these a try. Liked the idea that they settle quickly, and am loving them. Other sets, I would like this or that string. This set (I am even using the E) might be perfect, my instrument actually started resonating while I was putting them on and accidentally plucked on already installed. We'll see, but I am excited.

It is the quality of our strings and rosin that makes PIRASTRO a well known brand name which stands for reliability and beauty of sound. Many musicians of bowed classical instruments prefer PIRASTRO strings because of the string's ability of modulation and altering the tone. This allows the musician to create an individual sound and to evoke the special sound characteristics of the instrument. Musicians can choose from the most comprehensive product program available in the industry, which offers gut strings such as Oliv, Eudoxa or Chorda, synthetic strings like evah pirazzi, Obligato, Violino or Tonica and steel strings such as Permanent, Flexocor or Chromcor. PIRASTRO rosin is adapted to each string in such a way that adhesive power and playability are optimised. The ancestors of the current owner Evah Pirazzi came from Italy to Germany more than 200 years ago. From the beginning as a small workplace of craftsmen in Offenbach near the Main river, a modern company has evolved under the name of Gustav Pirazzi & Comp.KG, with a staff of over 150 employees at two plants, both located in Germany. On January 1, 2002 we have been changed our name into PIRASTRO GmbH (Ltd.) Today's production is based on computer-aided and self-designed machines.In former times sheep gut was the sole raw material available. Apart from gut production is based also on state-of-the-art synthetics and various steel and none-steel strands, such as gold, tungsten, silver or titanium. Our research & development technicians work closely together with professional musicians in each stage of the development. Sophisticated R&D and quality control ensure modern PIRASTRO strings setting an industry standard.

These strings still retain a portion of the gut sounds. More so than any other steel string out there. Don't buy helicore!! Buy these.
