To be quite honest, I am not an expert violinist. I bought this violin to self-learn on, so I might not have the most advanced feedback. Violin: I believe that this violin is of great quality, and I believe also that Kennedy Violins takes the time to put passion and love into every one of their violins to make sure that it is perfect for the customer from this experience. When I first played the violin, it had to be tuned which is totally normal and fine. After the tuning, I played a few notes, and it has a high quality sound to it. The ebony fingerboard was beautiful, and the staining on the violin did not rub or fade. It makes it look glossy and new. The strings are on the violin when it came already and came with an extra pack of strings just in case one of the strings breaks or multiple break. The bridge came intact and stood in the right position. The pegs also fit into the holes really well. This package also comes with a nice cloth to wipe the violin down and clean it (and even instructions on how to clean your violin). Tuner: It is a clip on tuner, but I find it more useful just to hold it up next to the violin (that is my style of tuning). It is alright in its accuracy. It helped me tune my violin before I learned to tune by ear which is quite helpful. It comes with a battery and is easily to manipulate. There are also different settings on the tuner so you might have to turn to the violin setting when you first use it. Bow: It is high quality horsehair, and does not look stringy in the least. It was smooth and the wood is nicely made with no sharp edges. With rosin, the bow moved smoothly along the strings and did not "stutter." Shoulder rest: It works perfectly, it might not be comfortable for some shoulders because everyone is different, but it helps me rest the violin without hurting my shoulder. Rosin: Like I said before, I am definitely not an expert in this, but it did not make the bow or strings dirty or sticky/slimy. It helped the bow move along the strings nicely and not "stutter" as I said before. Intro to Violin Book: It actually helped me a lot to read this book because I just started and I did not know the basics of fingering or holding the actual bow correctly. It even has beginner and some intermediate songs that you can play inside. It also shows the basics of notation (which I already knew). It is a very helpful guide even for tuning. Case: It is a nice and hard case so the violin will not get smashed or ruined. There is one compartment to put rosin and other things inside, a spot for the violin which also includes a velcro hold in place latch. It also includes a bow holder on the top which is nice because it gently holds the bow. The case also has a built in moisture gauge which is nice to look at and see if you need to lessen the moisture inside. It also includes straps so that you can turn the case into a backpack. All in all, I would recommend this to anyone starting out on the violin!

I was looking for a good beginner violin…er…fiddle and after searching through several comments about several beginner violins, I chose the Ricard Bunnel G1 violin. My family has deep roots in music, particularly fiddle playing old country tunes. Since all but one fiddle player in my family have passed, I thought I would carry on the tradition. That one fiddle player has a wealth of experience she can teach me, so I feel I’m in a good place as a beginner (she doesn’t play much anymore because of the difficulty). I wanted a violin that will suit me for a number of years, yet not a “cheap” one. I was a little hesitant since the RB is a bit more in price than the others; however, after combing through several websites and comments I found the RB was rated 4.5 – 5 every time by beginners as well as more seasoned players. So I pulled the trigger, and am happy with the result. The RB has a very nice look – a satin finish, which is good because I didn’t want a shiny fiddle. When I received it at my house, I opened the box and found everything was in working order, ready to go. I had to tune the violin, had some “peg slippage”, but got it in tune last week. I hadn’t played with it in 2-3 days, but brought it out this evening and only had to adjust the tune just a little. I really like the case. Everything fits well and is secure. The case is light, and has additional storage for my shoulder rest and other accessories. I’ve not looked much at the other accessories that came with the package, like the rosin, a violin beginner’s book, shoulder rest, additional strings, etc. but I’m sure those things will do just fine. My main interest, of course, is the violin and bow. I’ve played the fiddle a few times and thus far very happy/satisfied with the sound. I was playing another fiddle before I purchased my RB, and I’m not sure if it’s because I’ve practiced more, but I sound much better playing my RB. I’m still working on beginner scales, but everything is coming along just fine. The customer service with Kennedy Violins is extraordinary. I’ve read in other comments the same, but today I received a follow-up call by one of the staff. We talked for about 45 minutes about my RB and violin playing in general. The person I spoke with was most kind and offered contact information should I have any questions in the future (you don’t receive that extra service much anymore these days with most companies). So, that gave me an extra feeling of satisfaction and wiped away any minor buyer’s remorse that may have been floating in the back of my mind. So, I’m keeping the fiddle and hopefully will be learning some songs in the near future and might even delve into playing double stops (My Aunt who is the last fiddle player in my family informed me about playing chords on the fiddle…who knew??).
