Absolutely Brilliant for beginners! November 28, 2008 Carrie 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I bought this violin about 3 months ago, and from the first day I got it, I have LOVED it! I was an absolute beginner. I have been taking lessons from my Grandma, and this violin has never failed us.
The case is VERY nice, sturdy, and the perfect cozy bed for both storing and packing your violin.
The extra accessories are spectacular. The rosin works great; you just have to scuff it up a bit with a piece of sandpaper or a knife so that the rosin will actually come off onto the high-quality bow.
The pitch pipe is VERY useful when tuning your violin.
The extra strings are very nice. I snapped my A string while tuning it (I twisted it WAY too tight) and I was able to just grab my extra string and put it on.
I highly suggest getting an experienced violinist when you are installing your bridge. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DO IT IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING.
The violin itself is 100% goregous. It's smooth and polished, and just beautiful to look at, even if it's not singing! It has an amazing tone... It is more mellow, not as harsh as most violins, and just clear and brilliant.
Even my grandma, who is an experienced violinist, loves my violin and agrees that this was a really good deal.
I love this violin. I'm glad I found this amazing deal; it's totally worth your money! I bet I'll have this violin for years to come.
From a 100% satisfied customer.

I love my new violin! September 24, 2008 Pat Elliott (Southern Oregon, USA) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I love my new violin! It has excellent tone and it is beautiful to behold. It comes with a great case & strap, 2 bows, 2 bridges, a fine tuner, an extra set of strings, and rosin. The Cecilio CNV-200 is a great bargin for anyone who would like to jump in to learning to play the violin as a beginner, and even a novice could appreciate it's beauty and tone. I'm taking up the instrument again after a 55 year hiatus! The company, Austin Bazaar, shipped immediately and I received the package with everything in excellent shape. Thanks!
Pretty good student violin March 5, 2008 Edit Reyes 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
This is may be a cheap priced violin, but it's an excellent choice for a student violin who's just learning or maybe is not sure about it. I have got good compliments about my violin, it has a good sound and beautiful finish. There are some glue marks in the inside but that's no problem. The two bows are good usefull, of course you shouldn't expect real horsehair, it's synthetic but good anyway. Now the rosin is of the poorest quality, unusable, so buy good rosin. Also I haven't used much the pitch pipe, but seems good. The shoulder rest is a piece of plastic with foam, but that wasn't a problem for me since I don't use it.
In conclusion: This is a good violin for the student and begginer. It doesn't look cheap.
By the way the fingerboard isn't ebony, of course for the price you shouldn't expect real ebony, but it's good painted black.
Sorry for my bad english
