  • Review after ~9 months of playing
Size: full-size
This is my first violin- I bought it to take lessons with my daughter, who was renting from a music store. I think hers was in the $800 range to buy, and it sounded fine, but this violin sounds better! I'm still a novice so I don't know if it's the strings or the instrument itself, but it has such a rich warm sound. My instructor was even impressed that it was "resonant," meaning hitting the right note on one string would make the next string reverberate. (Pretty cool.) I'm still in love with this after playing for about 9 months, but there are a few things I've been looking to change or upgrade- hence 4 stars instead of 5. First, the case is nice and spacious, but it is "face" heavy so it tips over if you have books in the pouch. The hygrometer DOES NOT WORK. Nice idea, but oh well. The shoulder rest might work if you have a short neck, but I found it didn't adjust high enough for me (long neck) so I replaced it with a Kun, which I recommend. The bow... mine is bowed, ironically. It twists a bit to the side, but it's usable. I just realized at my last lesson that it's actually quite heavy when compared to my instructor's bow, and it's not well balanced. The last thing to nitpick is the bridge. It feels like the arch isn't quite at enough of an angle to separate the G and D strings while playing, but that could just be my inexperience. None of these things are deal breakers at all for this violin. I am still quite happy with this purchase and I don't imagine I will need to upgrade it for a very long time. It's also quite a beautiful instrument to look at. I find myself just admiring it sometimes instead of playing it! ... show more

  • It’s never too late
Size: full-size
When I was 10 years old, I wanted to learn to play an instrument. All the violins were assigned so I was assigned the cello. I was 3 1/2 feet tall and 42 pounds. I could barely hold it up and was lost behind it both literally and figuratively. I live alone and during this pandemic are trying hard to take advantage of having too much time on my hands. So at 67 years old, I decided to learn to play the violin. This violin is very beautiful and I’ve started to practice. Thank you Connie Feliks ... show more

  • I highly highly highly recommend this violin
Size: full-size
I purchased this package as a starter violin. At 35 years old I decided that I always wanted to learn so what the heck! I highly highly highly recommend this violin. The package has everything you need and the violin is beautiful, feels well made, and just sounds wonderful to my untrained ear. So many people have told me how they sounded like screeching cats when they learned to play. Well not me!!! This violin sounds beautiful and makes me feel like I'm a Mozart in the making!! I took a couple of lessons from an instructor and he said this violin has a rich deep sound. The company even e-mailed me after a few weeks asking if there was anything needed. Very satisfied with my purchase! ... show more

  • Fantastic!
Size: full-size
For about five years, I was using literally the cheapest violin, playing every so often. I went down to the local store for kicks and they only had violins for $1000 and up, but I was amazed by how great they sounded. A few months later I found this violin online and it looked like it had promise, so I went ahead and ordered one. Honestly, I was impressed immediately by how nice the case was, but when I looked inside, the violin was beautiful! It's not expensive, but it's a real violin, made of really nice wood - not like the sawdust one I was using. The bow looked great too, and I was happy with the accessories and the free lesson offer. Playing the violin over the last several days, it's been a night and day difference. You need just pluck the strings to notice - it's more deep and resonant, and has a rich tone. I am able to play far up the fingerboard and each of the strings sounds good up an octave or more - something I couldn't do before without it sounding horrid. As I've been playing, I'm relishing the richness of the tone and am having fun playing slow notes just to embrace the tonality. The bow is light and responsive, and skips over the strings perfectly. All in all, I'm very pleased with this purchase, as the violin, the accessories, and customer service are top-notch. As a musician of over 30 years, I can tell that this is a great deal for an instrument of this quality. Highly recommended. ... show more

  • i bought two and they are excellent
Size: 1/2-size
Disclaimer: i am not a musician and know very little about violons. I bought two: a 1/2 and a 1/4 and they both excellent. They both generate a “rich” and “jucy” sound - if that makes any sense. Even the miniature-looking 1/4 sized one has a great resonance. They look great too, especially the 1/2 sized one with a darker finish. I was able to easely tune them (using piano and a tuner app) and they remained tuned even after my kids “played” them (or with them) for days. Violin teacher also said both violins were very good. There are plenty of violins around the $100 range, but I am glad I bought the Kenedy ones instead. Also, this is a complete set - even the violin cases are the exact size for each 1/2 and 1/4 model. I, personally, am very happy with these (and more importantly, my kids are interested and get a kick out of playing them withou me having to ask them to practice - this isn’t an easy instrument to learn music from what I can tell) ... show more

  • Great kit at a great price
Size: full-size
Where was this when I was learning? I've been playing for almost 20 years. This starter kit is legit. A great deal for the price. I highly recommend if you're searching for you or a child. The violin is good quality, the case and bow are good, the extras this comes with are what make it worth it. It includes 2 books, extra strings, a tuner, and beginners poster. All well worth the price. Well done, Kennedy Violins. ... show more
