  • Great value and awesome instrument
I am a beginner fiddle player, but a long time musician. I play primarily Bluegrass, Folk and Americana, but dabble in other genres as well. I play the 5-string banjo, guitar, mandolin and ukulele. Being a mandolin player, I figured transitioning to a fiddle would be fairly easy since the tuning is the same. I purchased an inexpensive student violin outfit to see if I would like this before purchasing a better instrument. While transitioning what I know on the mandolin to the fiddle, I was working on fingerings and bowing techniques. While learning this, I quickly discovered the limitations of my cheap student violin. I started looking at other fiddles that would take me into the intermediate level, which is all I would probably ever need with the types of music I play. That is when I came across the Glasser carbon fiber violin. Having recently purchased a carbon fiber guitar, and being very happy with it, I was intrigued. I asked my sister, a concert violinist and music teacher, about this fiddle, and she felt it would be all the fiddle I would ever need, and because I play outdoors and in different settings, she felt it would fit my lifestyle as well. Being the bargain hunter I am, I felt that Vivo!, through Amazon, had the best price for this. I decided on the entire outfit as the bow from my student fiddle already started to warp, and the case was very cheap quality. After the violin arrived, I was impressed with the case that I pulled out of the box. This is a hefty, hearty semi-hard case with a backpack clipped directly to it. Not sure what the backpack would be useful for, for me, but it’s a cool addition. The case itself is already a backpack case, and has pockets for everything I would ever need to carry with this fiddle. This fiddle comes with a Glasser fiberglass bow, which my sister has all of her students purchase. The bow feels great, much better than the student bow that came with my cheap fiddle. The electronic tuner/metronome is really cool. You can tell it was made specifically for this instrument as it clips to the contour of the scroll. It is easy to read and helps with tuning. The rosin was a dark amber. My sister likes the light amber, and that’s what I already had, so I probably will not use the rosin it came with, but no problem. There is also a microfiber cloth that came with it. The only thing missing is a shoulder rest, but I used the one from my cheap fiddle, and it works just fine. The fiddle itself is awesome. It has a little more weight than my wood fiddle, but it is still nice and light. This fiddle is unpolished, so no bright glare to bounce back at you. The geared planetary tuning pegs are a really, really nice option. The fiddle has fine tuners but don’t see the point with the geared tuning pegs. But, it doesn’t hurt to have them either. One thing that I feel is important to point out… The picture here on Amazon, and all other pictures and videos I have seen of this fiddle, it shows that it has a wooden bridge. Mine showed up with a carbon fiber bridge, which I was very happy about. I found it silly that Glasser would have used a wooden bridge on an otherwise woodless instrument. I also felt that since my guitar, and my mom’s ukulele had carbon fiber bridges, why couldn’t this fiddle? Well, Glasser answered that for me when I took the fiddle out of the case and tuned it up. It was a very pleasant surprise. As for sounds and playability, once I tuned the fiddle up, rosined up my bow, and touched it to the strings, I was blown away by the sounds. Sure, it’s no very expensive wooden luthier-built violin, like my sister plays, but compared to the student model I have, it’s night and day better. I had a hard time putting it down. Being that it had new strings, they have to stretch, which I expected, but once they settle in, it’s going to be hard to put that fiddle down. Anyhow, I am extremely happy with this purchase. ... show more

  • Sturdy. Weather proof.
Served the purpose. Daughter left this in a friend’s basement one summer. Books and some other things got moldy. The violin was totally fine. It was a little heavier than her wooden violin, but her wooden violin would not have survived that summer without damage. Glad she was able to use this one whenever needed and did not have to worry about where to put it. ... show more

  • Cheap "Carbonite" Plastic
I suppose i should kick myself for choosing plastic carbonite over wood. The tone is very different, and plastic will crack as well. Certainly the price should be closer to $700 than $1100. Cost/materials (including bow), produces a dissatisfactory outcome. Sad...
