Type: Violin Included: Bow, shoulder rest, case Level: Beginner My child used this for about a year. It's being sold because they've outgrown it. According to the violin teacher, it's a maker that produces surprisingly good sound for the price. There's no significant deterioration, but you may want to have any areas of concern maintained before use. The following is taken from the product description on the website: This instrument for children and beginners was developed with the aim of achieving "authenticity," a completely different level from the so-called mail-order products that are cheap and of poor quality. You will surely be surprised by the high quality of the specifications, sound, and appearance, which are unimaginable for the price. Based on the belief that "a good ear is cultivated in childhood," each instrument is finished with great care. #violin #lessons #grazioso #1/4violin #music #classical #violin
