    • Hard won wisdom led me to this instrument
Size: 4/4 Style: OUTFIT
This is an instrument that I purchased to replace a Mendini MV300 for my oldest. The Mendini really required a lot of love to get it in shape to play, and though we got two years out of it, the instrument really started holding him back. Frankly, if I had it to do all over again (even not knowing if he'd like the violin or not...) I'd have gone with this rig. If you're here, it's probably either because the school year has started and it's time to find an instrument for your son or daughter, or perhaps you're looking to learn the violin yourself. I found buying to be more attractive than renting for various reasons. But we aren't here to talk about instrument economics. We're here to talk about the Cremona SV-175, which in my mind is an ideal beginner or novice level instrument. Further, with enough love, this instrument will likely carry the student through the intermediate level. It's really quite good. First though, is the obligatory word of caution: this is NOT a professional-level instrument. If you approach the instrument on those terms, you will be disappointed. It's not fair to judge by those criteria, particularly since Cremona is not selling this as a masterwork. No, this is a student violin, well made but nonetheless intended for students. It will not get in the way of the student trying to learn, nor will it encourage bad habits. Now typically, I shy away from buying complete all-in-one, accessory-laden packages. In the music world, while price doesn't always equal quality, there is a point where that doesn't really hold true. If you're buying a ginormous outfit at about the same price as a violin + bow from another maker, then you have fewer dollars going into the actual violin...and it will show. You want your money to go to instrument quality, which means good tonewoods like solid spruce and maple, ebony fittings like the pegs and fingerboard, and good craftsmanship and setup. The Cremona offers you that, at a pretty good price point. I had absolutely no problems receiving this via mail. The instrument was well-nestled in its case and packed/padded enough to prevent damage. Moreover, it looked as though someone actually did setup on this instrument (more on setup in a minute)...the bridge fits, the pegs fit, the soundpost was in place...so really, all I needed to do was tune it up, rosin the bow, and I was in business. As these were new strings (D'Addario Preludes), certainly they required a few days of constant tuning until they settled down, but settle down they did and the results are fantastic. Again, in this context, this is a very good instrument, especially after some time of regular playing to get it to open up. The tone is marvelous and certainly belies the pedigree of the instrument. It sounds great. However, this isn't to say you have nothing to do here. When receiving this or any other violin in this manner, PLEASE spend some time looking at the setup and take it to a professional luthier when you get a chance. It's a small investment but will pay dividends down the road. In particular, consider: -The peg box. If pegs are either slipping or are overly hard to turn (and I mean really hard) then either the pegs or the peg box holes are the wrong size/shape. The pegs should be conical and the ends should be flush with the peg box hole on the opposite side. If not, they may need to be reshaped. A lutheir can help with this. -The soundpost. This should NOT be glued into place, instead wedged inside the instrument. It should also be in a very particular place...if it's misplaced, the violin will sound flat or muted. Soundpost placement requires some specialized tools and knowledge, best left to a luthier. -The bridge. If you're handy with wood, you can probably do this yourself. Mainly you want the bridge to be standing straight up and perpendicular to the top of the violin. If it's leaning to or fro then that tells you it's in the wrong spot (it should be even with the little notches in the F holes) and the strings are too tight or too loose against the bridge. In addition, the feet need to be flush with the violin top with 100% contact, and that means they need to be cut so as to accommodate the curvature of the top. It may take a little fussing, but a properly-placed bridge makes a huge difference. it more efficiently transmits the vibrations of the strings to the body of the instrument. -The strings. I like the Prelude strings these come with, finding them to have a nice bright tone. They are steel core, so they will be lacking a certain warmth. So that said, I typically gravitate toward synthetic core strings, like Dominants (although D'Addario has the Pro-Arte line that are nylon core which I like very much as well). Strings are not a trivial purchase, so resist the urge to scrimp here...I think they are the component that has the single biggest impact on the overall sound of the instrument. Again, note and note well that new strings always require a breaking in period and will stretch over the course of days before settling down. You'll need to retune very regularly until they do. That isn't to say that there aren't *some* compromises here. The bow is functional and actually pretty good for a starter outfit, but it's not something that's going to last for the long haul. The case, on the other hand, is simply fantastic...it's sturdy with a nice big compartment inside to hold accessories like extra strings, rosin, a tuner, etc. So to conclude (and I'm sorry this review is stretching on so long): I found this to be a simply fantastic instrument for the student, quite probably one of the best offered. And I say that knowing full well that it's made in China - but it's made with care and attention and craftsmanship, so that pedigree doesn't bother me one bit. This isn't a hastily-made, mass produced Violin Shaped Object. Varnish is appropriately applied and the instrument overall does not have any chips, cracks, loose joints, etc. The tone and playability are right on, so much so that this will encourage the student to learn and learn properly. It's simply a very good violin. ... show more

    • Cremona SV-175, Turned out fine... very pleased.
Size: 4/4 Style: OUTFIT
The case is great!! Read on - lots of good wisdom in this....... At first I was displeased because I thought the strings were broken and there was no bridge. The violin came with the bridge floating around in the case - I am guessing that it popped out of place during shipping because the company says it comes set up and ready to tune. The rest of the pieces/parts were all in place and none of the strings were broken. One of the reasons I purchased this item is because the factory does the set up prior to shipping. All you need to do is tune it. ***If you are new to violins, check into this part of the process because if you order one with no set up, you have to take it to a luthier [professional violin "fixer"] to do so and that may be $50.00 to a few hundred dollars before you can use the instrument.*** We found a video on how to set the bridge [good learning experience]. The same video also showed how to tune, set up [tighten and rosin] the bow, and how to place a shoulder rest - among other things. I am an older adult learning how to play - I have spent many hours online educating myself about the basics prior to the purchase. So, I was not daunted by the bridge being out - you really can find many helpful videos for novice violin players. Now, I am able to make actual violin sounds on this violin and they are strong and bright - I just have to learn how to play notes. One of the videos taught me that the new strings will likely go out of tune for a while as they stretch and settle - so be patient. Also, you will need some accessories - you should consider purchasing a shoulder rest, a better quality resin [the resin that came in this set is fine, but I ordered another kind anyway], a practice mute [a rubber coated metal one is what many videos recommend], and some sort of finger board marker sticker - there are flat ones and one that has raised frets that you can adhere to the finger board. I ordered everything - except the raised fret sticker - from Amazon. The raised fret sticker comes from another, small company. With regards to the craftsmanship, the finish could be better, but that has no bearing on how it plays. The violin is super light and the case doesn't add much more weight. I know that this is not the world's top instrument, but I found a video series [from Italy??] that shows a professional player demonstrating all of the violins in Cremona's line. This one sounded just fine in her hands, so I believe it will take me quite far. I am very pleased with my purchase. ... show more

    • Won't stay in tune
Size: 4/4 Style: OUTFIT
I tried so hard to like this violin. Beautiful case. It just wouldn't stay in tune for more a few minutes, no matter peg drops; this made it impossible to play. Very sad and had to return it.

    • This package is great value
Size: 4/4 Style: OUTFIT
I'm a beginner, so I don't have anything to compare this violin with, other than a rental I had for a few months before buying this package. The quality seems fine though. There were none of the flaws in the finish that other reviewers commented on. My instructor did say that initially the strings didn't really "sing", and suggested that I play open strings a lot as part of my practice and warm ups, as doing so can help new instruments settle in and achieve their optimal resonance and sound. The tone seems good now, going by the sound when my instructor and I play simultaneously on our own instruments. In terms of shipped condition, my violin came completely assembled -- strings and the bridge were in place. Initially it did not stay in tune for long at all, requiring significant retuning between every practice, but then it either settled down (or the humidity increased) so that the pegs no longer slipped as much. Now it stays in tune very well. The bow seems of decent quality. You do have to rosin it well at first, for it to be usable and produce any decent sound. The case is great, lightweight but sturdy. At first I didn't like the rectangular shape, feeling that it was too bulky, but I do like that my music fits into the flat zipper pocket on one side. Inside the case, the flapped compartment is roomy, fitting my Snark tuner, rosin, and cleaning cloth. I tried to fit my shoulder rest in there, but it's just too tight. Amazingly I can fit my shoulder rest sideways into the outside zipper pocket, along with my music. All in all, this has been a great value purchase for me. I'd recommend it for other beginners. ... show more
