I purchased these items new from Bunkyo Gakki. The brands are Pygmalius and Archet, both from Bunkyo Gakki. I also bought a new case. 【Violin】Pygmalius Standard 1/4 size 2022 Price: ¥143,000 【Bow】Archet PE 1003 1/4 size Price: ¥66,000 【Case】Toyo Gakki Super Shell 1 1/4 size Price: ¥22,000 I've used these for about six months. Since I rarely practiced at home and only used them for lessons, the violin is in good condition. Once, my hand slipped, and I pressed the violin on a desk, leaving a mark on the back. This doesn't affect the sound. There is one spot where the varnish has been retouched, which is why I purchased it at a slightly lower price. It doesn't affect the performance or sound, only the appearance, so I was happy to get a good deal. The bow still has its wrapping on the winding, and the hair hasn't shed. I planned to keep it for the memories because of the beautiful sound, varnish, and the color of the fitting parts, but I'm selling it to fund the purchase of my next violin ☆ Returns are not accepted.
