One of the strings had become bent during transit and the bridge had come loose but it's easily fixable and sounds great! The strings sit a bit higher than I'm used to, maybe because the bridge sits in a holder rather than right on the violin but I can probably have someone sand it down a bit if I need to. This is my first electric violin and I am well pleased with it!

The design of the violin is pleasing and thorough. The pickup under the bridge works well in that it processes signal efficiently and evenly. Now I had to ream the peg holes to make the pegs fit. I also used peg dope and replaced the strings. The nut is too high, but not by much. String height is high which considering the bridge may be a more problematic adjustment. All that said, it’s still playable. One thing ordinary players could use is a guage stick to measure the proper ( designed) distance from nut to bridge as one of the major problems shipping a violin is getting an upright bridge to its destination. The tailpiece is really light, maybe by design and the fine tuners need to be lubricated. Also, buy a good amp to process all that signal to get a sound you and your audience might be pleased with, the violin being electric and all and definitely not acoustic. Side note: an amplified acoustic will always and forever be different from an electronic instrument. I’ve been silent about the bow. A good shoulder rest is also in order.

I ordered the Stagg EVN 4/4 MRD on April 2nd and received it on April 6th. Within one hour of delivery I opened, inspected, and photographed the product. As you can see in the photos, mold is on the chin rest, pegs, peg box, and underneath the scroll.I unlatched the velcro that was holding the neck and beneath is a rectangle compartment with the headphones and cable. Under that are 2 desiccant silica gel packs.There are no paper inserts or booklet of any kind supplied, except for a tag attached to one of pegs that has the logo on one side and on the other side is the UPC barcode with a brief warranty statement directing to the manufacturer's website.One-third of the bow hairs are caught under the latch holding it in place, and after delicately trying to remove it, one of hairs broke. There are minor mother of pearl details on the frog ("eyes" on both sides and the slide).The bridge was preinstalled and not at a 90° angle. The heart, wings, and kidneys looks rough and would need sanding.I have emailed Stagg/EMD Music (as listed on their customer support page from the website mentioned in the aforementioned tag ) and they responded quickly in 20 minutes to offer a FedEx return shipping label and a violin replacement. I accepted this offer and was informed it would be inspected before the replacement is shipped.I've always wanted to play the violin as a kid and I got this as a birthday present to myself. It's a bummer to receive a new violin in such a state and I was looking forward to spending my birthday learning how to play it.I am pleased at how quick my interaction with Stagg/EMD Music has been so far. FedEx has the violin now. I'll update my review and stars after I receive my replacement.

Not bad, best for beginners, Bridge, bow and strings need to be replaced. If you want you can replace the tail piece as well; to make it more suitable for learning and playing. . You may also want to buy new pair of headphones (provided headphones are crappy) and the carrying case too, if you want to be more safe get a hard case.

I have found the finish and material used for this instrument are really good. There is nothing cheap about it. Regarding the distortion noise it makes it due to weak batteries. The strings should be changed. Bow and headphones are for starters. The fingerboard is ebony. Out of three electric and numerous acoustics it is the heaviest though. But this one feels strongest.

This is my first electric (been playing acoustic for years). Seems pretty nice. Headphone jack on back is handy; I can play without worrying about waking up my sleeping toddler. Bow is wood and horsehair. Still trying to work enough rosin into it I think. Have to scuff the rosin or you just can't get any into the bow. Mine was missing a string (as advertised). I put artisan strings on. Gives me a rattle on the D, but the sound is fine. Maybe different brand would have been better. Overall I'm pleased and would recommend this, at least for starters.

I have been playing the violin for 7 years and know what I'm talking about. No offense, but your comment isn't worth really anything. To begin the violin comes with the classic 1/4in amp cable, cheap rosin, an okay totally unrosined bow, a really decent case,and a set of your $5.00 head phones, the violin comes FULLY ASSEMBLED but insanely out of tune. KEEP IN MIND THE BRIDGEWILL POP EASILY CAREFUL WHEN TUNING. As to the playing quality the bridge makes the strings too close, and it takes some time getting used to. Sounds great amplified, and the on- board controls are high(treble), low(base), and volume. This violin is marked as Aggressive because it requires a 9volt battery(included). Aggressive violins are said to have better ranges in frequencies and are more expensive because of this. I will admit I'm not an expert in the electric violin area and if someone wants to add please do!

El violÃn es pesado, las cuerdas y la pastilla no son buenas. Lo mejor de este violÃn es el diseño y el mini ecualizador.

but this product is overprice. it should be sold for 200$.the headphone and the strap, you wont use it.the bed where the bridge stand in, is just pinned in and can slip arround.so you have to glued it in place or remove it a put anti slip tape for the bridge.

Looks the part but if you are a violinist you’ll soon realise it (mine anyway) is badly made: the alignment of the strings on the fingerboard is too close making it almost unplayable and the peg box is too small to widen the strings on the nut. Best to try the instrument in a shop before buying!
