  • Beautiful
Size: 4/4 Style: CVN-600
Hi, I had mixed feelings buying this violin. A number of reviewers panned this violin so I was concerned on what I would receive. Now for my observations. The violin is gorgeous, the flaming and finish is wonderful. The bridge was intact as the sound post. The violin tuned easily and sounds great, much better than I expected. The electronic tuner works very well. Based on some reviews that said that the bows were substandard, I purchased a better bow. The quality of the supplied bows is yet to be determined. The case is excellent and of very high quality. This violin is worth every penny spent. IMO you will not be disappointed. Edit 01/08/24: I now have three of the Cecilio cvn-600 violins. They all look the same, but sound somewhat different. I installed geared tuners, Wittner and Perfection pegs, boxwood harp tailpieces and Fiddlerman strings, and removed the fine tuners. Each of the cvn-600 have similar weights, but as the plates measured with the Magic Probe, they have different plate thicknesses. The average thickness for the top plate goes from violin 3.38 to 5.11 mm. The thinner plate top is the oldest of the three and sounds the best. This suggests that Cecilio quality is slipping. The thickness variation suggests that the plates are indeed hand made and not a CNC product. Also notice that the description for the cvn-600 no longer states that the tonewood is aged for seven years. IMO Cecilio keeps shooting themselves in the foot. I am seriously thinking of buying another cvn-600 to see how it matches with my other three. BTW, if you get a good cvn-600 it sounds as good as a thousand dollar+ violin. If you get a poor sounding one, either send it back, or put octave strings on the violin and have some fun. Edit 01/25/24: I recently purchased a Cecilio cvn-600 from eBay that was probably made in 2006, the first year of cvn-600 production. As suspected the older cvn-600 top and bottom plate are much thinner than current production. Also the peg box is a few mm narrower than current production. The pegs are 7.1mm while current production pegs are 7.4mm. Interesting that the weight difference between my four cvn-600 violins is only 0.1oz. This suggests that irrespective of the different plate thickness, Cecilio keeps the weight the same over the 20 years of cvn-600 production. The first cvn-600 were list priced at $1000 with the price decreasing over the years. IMO while the current production cvn-600 build quality has slightly decreased over the years, current cvn-600 violins are still pretty good sounding if you replace the strings with either Fiddlerman, or Pirastro Tonica strings and use a better than the Cecilio supplied bows. The Fiddlerman carbon fiber bows are good. The Fiddlerman Sandalwood bows are even better. I have found that the D'Addario dark rosin works well with the cvn-600's. Edit 05/19/24: I recently purchased another early produced cvn-600 from eBay. This will be my 5th cvn-600 violin. I spent some time looking at all the negative reviews for this violin. Many of the negative reviews were because of pegs slipping. There is a simple solution to this problem, peg drops. The cvn-600 is a quality instrument that if peg sipping is an issue for you after using peg drops, you may want to consider having either Perfection or Wittner geared pegs installed. I prefer the Wittner pegs. It concerns me seeing all the negative Amazon reviews for this violin. If you don't know what you are doing when it comes to the purchase of a quality violin, please seek the council of a qualified violin expert. Yes, the quality of the cvn-600 has slipped over the years, but for the cost I don't think you will find a superior violin. ... show more

  • Great instrument!
Size: 4/4 Style: CVN-500
I really like this violin and it comes with everything you need to get playing! The Violin- I am a beginner, and admittedly do not know much about violins, but it sounds great to me! The sound is loud and clear. The violin also came in perfect shape (No dings or scratches, or imperfections in the finish) and feels very solid. It is not as yellow as in the pictures and is slightly more reddish and warm colored. The strings sound great as well, but if I may find I need to upgrade as I learn and progress. The tuning pegs up top did slip for me (some more than others), but the fine tuners worked perfectly, and there are many tricks to get the tuning pegs to stay put, so I wouldn't say this is a deal breaker. From what I can tell, this is quality. It is definitely NOT a toy or a cheap-o, and I can see myself playing it for a long time. The Bows- The bows sound good and seem balanced. They look pretty, though there are minor imperfections. They seem a little bit cheap compared with the quality of the violin, but they work well enough for me. Same as with the strings, I might upgrade as I progress, but as the violin comes with 2 bows, I can't see myself needing to upgrade any time soon. The Case- It is a hard-shell case wrapped with canvas and a soft lining. It zips up and has a button flap. It has a pocket in the front (which is just big enough to hold a lesson book) and a handle and backpack straps on the back. I am very impressed with it! The case also has a spot to hold your 2 bows and your rosin/accessories. Very sturdy (and light-weight despite that). I feel confident putting my violin in it. It could take some bumps and still be perfectly fine. Definitely a plus! The Book- The book also impressed me! It covers all the basics such as holding the violin and bow. It starts off with the open strings and progresses with all of the notes and various techniques and scales. It has 32 pages chock-full of exercises, folk songs, and classical songs which are fun to play. You can learn quite a bit from this book. It is perfect for getting you started (plus a bit more!) It does progress fairly quickly though, and does not cover a lot of basic music theory. These are not necessarily negatives, but may be important to know. It does say on the book that there is a cd(?) and it did not come with one if it was supposed to. No big deal though, as I probably wouldn't have listened to it anyway. :-) The Shoulder Rest- Fits well on the violin and suits my needs. It has plastic screws on the bottom to tighten it on and the rubber feet to grip the violin. It will not scratch the violin (unless you are jamming it on). It is comfy and doesn't jab into my shoulder at all, though it may for other individuals. It seems a little plastic-y/cheap, so I may upgrade eventually. The Tuner- Okay. I don't know if it needs newer batteries than what it came with, but it only registers about 1/4 of what is being played. But when it registers, it works correctly. I will try new batteries and see if it works better then. I already have tuners, so this was not a big deal to me. It has a built in metronome though, which could be useful. The Rosin- Works well. Applies easy. It is not messy and has plastic to hold on to as you are applying it. It has its own little case as well. I would definitely recommend buying this violin. From what I can tell, you probably can't go wrong buying any in the CVN series. ... show more
