Description

The Ricard Bunnel G2 Violin Outfit is the perfect all-in- one package for new players, young and grown. One of our most popular student violins, it is available in all sizes from 4/4 to 1/16. The Ricard Bunnel G2 is a quality outfit offered at a great value. The oil finish is a unique feature usually only seen on more expensive violins. Student-level string instruments sold by other retailers at this cost are typically coated with a thick, glossy lacquer finish that hinders quality tone production. The Ricard Bunnel has an authentic, hand-rubbed oil finish. It not only looks more professional, but remains true to historical, tried-and-true standards of handcrafted violin making. The finish, construction, fittings, and design of the Ricard Bunnel G2 give this instrument a warmer and more projective sound than competing student violins at the same cost. All Ricard Bunnel Violin Outfits now come with a complete package of accessories including a case, bow, shoulder rest (or shoulder pad, depending on violin size), extra strings, cleaning cloth, beginner's book, and more at no additional cost! See what sets our Violin Outfits apart!

Read more VIOLIN SIZE CHART Use the sizing chart to choose the correct size from the arm measurement. Follow these instructions for the most accurate size: First, with arm outstretched to the side, measure the player's arm from the base of neck to mid-palm. Check the size chart below for the right size of violin according to arm length measurement. Always choose the smaller size if the student is in-between sizes. A larger instrument will hinder the student’s ability to play properly. The deciding factor is if the student is able to, or very close to, playing the 4th finger. If they can reach this fingering the violin will be usable. Extend arm fully to the side and perpendicular to the body.Measure from the base of the neck to the middle of the palm.If you are between sizes, size down. Please use the sizing chart below to assist you. 1/16 14"–15" arm length, usually 3–5 years age 1/10 15"–16" arm length, usually 3–5 years age 1/8 16"–18" arm length, usually 3–5 years age 1/4 18"–20" arm length, usually 4–7 years age 1/2 20"–22" arm length, usually 6–10 years age 3/4 22"–23" arm length, usually 9–11 years age 4/4 23" and up arm length, usually 12 years and up in age

  • Sounds great! But...
Size: 4\/4 Product Packaging: Standard Packaging
I've been an active musician all my life, but I've only been playing the fiddle (violin?!) for a short time. I've had a couple of Chinese violins by a company that starts with a "C", and on the ultra cheap end of what that particular company offers (mind you). This violin is hands down better tone wise, but as another reviewer mentioned there are some quirks. So, straight to the point: Pro's: - Beautiful satin-like finish. Striking. Honestly - it's gorgeous. - Even if it's been sitting in an Amazon warehouse for who knows how long, it felt very well set up right away. The tuning pegs were almost perfectly flush with the peg box. You just don't see that on most Chinese factory violins. It required tuning but... yeah if you're not expecting that then you're expectations need some retooling. - Most people aren't too concerned with the accessories but the clip-on tuner is great, and the shoulder rest... oh the shoulder rest. I had a cheap plastic shoulder rest for my other violins and this one is leaps and bounds better. No comparison. Frankly I'm surprised they include it in this outfit. - The case. The typical violin shaped case doesn't have any space for your shoulder rest or your sheet music. This one does. I appreciate that. Con's: - Someone had an off day when they carved out my right f-hole (see picture). It's a mess. What makes it worse is knowing someone at Kennedy Violins saw this (can't miss it) and went "eh... whatever". It doesn't affect the tone but man is it disappointing. My el-cheapo "C" violin at 1/4 the price is nearly flawless by comparison. - Another reviewer posted a picture of a chin rest that dug into the violin and left a big dent. I haven't taken mine off, but it's blatantly obvious that the very same blemish exists on mine just by looking at how it's mounted and where the chin rest meets the body. Kennedy Violins says something to the effect of "they put the chin rest on before the varnish fully dries at this price point but hey it's ok, it won't affect the tone!". Right. It still looks bad and saying "our product is damaged/sometimes poorly made but it sounds great!" at this price-point is a cop out'ish way of justifying a factory blemish. Verdict: If you order a Kennedy Violins violin from Amazon without being able to visually inspect the instrument first, you're (evidently) rolling dice. All things considered a 4 star rating on Amazon is an "I like it" rating - and I do. It's warmer and "livelier" than my other two Chinese violins. Suppose I'll chalk the blemishes up as "character"? Blemishes aside, the instrument looks and sounds great. ... show more

  • A very nice violin for students
Size: 4\/4 Product Packaging: Standard Packaging
I am very happy I purchased this violin. When I started playing, I bought a Stentor II, and I was horribly disappointed. I had a horrible time just trying to push the strings down to the fingerboard. They were so stiff. I took some good advice and bought a slightly more expensive violin--my Bunnel--and even my teacher said my playing was as different as night and day with this violin. I could push the strings down a lot more easily, the sound is rich and projects well, the E string is a bit squeaky, but I haven't upgraded the strings, which I want to do. I am going to put Dominant strings on so that I can get the sound quality I want from the E string. I had a fairly easy time getting the pegs to stay put when I tuned it. I rarely need the pegs now. I use the fine tuners more often, since the violin holds its tune for several days, usually. I upgraded the shoulder rest and bought a Kun. I'd highly recommend Kun shoulder rests. It makes playing so much more comfortable. The violin is very pretty, if you are concerned about aesthetics. The scroll looks nice, the varnish is smooth. The ebony finger board looks great. This violin apparently won the second place spot in 2018 for best violins--the only one that was better was almost double the cost of this one, and it's clearly for professionals, which I am not. If you are or know a student of violin, you can't really beat this. I would discourage you from buying any violin under 200 dollars. I grant you: spending thousands of dollars on a violin that you may or may not play long-term is not advisable, but if you can afford this violin, this violin will stick with you through beginning and intermediate stages of playing. If you make it beyond intermediate, then it might be time to upgrade if you want to. But I would not recommend buying cheap violins online. Spend some extra money and get the very best one you can afford. This one is worth every dime I spent on it. There isn't a day that goes by that I'm not thankful that I dropped the extra money on this instrument. it has transformed my playing. ... show more

  • Nice quality violin with beautiful sound
Size: 4\/4 Product Packaging: Standard Packaging
Very nice violin to start! Love the wood finish and it gives a sense of quality, not some cheap plastics. Everything comes ready in the package, no assembly necessary. At some point we feel the urge to get a shoulder rest and ordered one from Amazon, only to realize that a much better one is right there in the neglected white box. The shoulder rest is sturdy and the length control is a slider, much better than those with only a couple positions to change between. It also come with some replacement strings! I did broke the E string the day I realize there’s replacement x’D it’s such a relief I can fix it right away. The tuner is okay, it works though not as fast, as some tuner app I’m using, and that can be expected. There’s also a tutorial book, I’ve already followed some YouTube video so haven’t check that yet. The sound is pretty nice so far, wasn’t a pro but the practicing session is enjoyable once you make the sound right. It sounds so beautiful! I feel so happy about my decision to get a quality violin, it potentially saves a lot of headache, and the nice sound and good experience can likely keep me going. One last thing I do need to purchase myself is a violin mute. My friend and I practiced happily for a few weeks, and one day, our roomies couldn’t stand it anymore and stated they hate the repeating sound TAT I already practice with doors and windows closed, I tried to move my bow as gently possible, but the sound feels very uncomfortable. Now that I learn there’s some magical thing called violin mute! Not sure if that would be our savior, but if it is helpful as the name suggests, I wish the bundle would have it included too. With only five bucks, it can probably save an ignorant self-taught beginners like myself from some possible dramas :D ... show more
