That's me, not the violin. Well, actually, it sorta is the violin, too. If you've priced a lot of musical instruments, you've noticed they fall into roughly three groups; professional models start in the low thousands and go up (up, up, up) from there. Student models can come in from a little over $1K to as low as a couple hundred bucks. And under a hundred bucks? That's a toy. The change is very abrupt. The differences between student and professional models need a professional (or a very good student) to really tell. A toy, on the other hand, is unplayable, and would be less than useless for a student (as it would at best teach them all the wrong things -- and more often than not, drive them away from the instrument with the misapprehension that the problem lies with THEM.) I'm saying all this because this is one of those rare birds that is priced like a toy but delivers a good solid student instrument. This isn't a thousand-dollar instrument. But it belongs among the $400-600 student instruments. And you are paying less. Now about that "adult beginner" thing. A child has more access to academic tutoring. To music rooms and private lessons in studios and all of that. They should get a standard acoustic violin with all the peccadillos attendant to that type. Where this ELECTRIC violin truly shines is with the adult beginner, the self-taught and the dilettante; in short, with people who want to be able to "give it a go" at a stringed instrument without losing the lease on their apartment due to the awful noises issuing from it. It isn't silent. It is, however, quiet. Quiet enough you can practice in a thin-walled apartment or an upstairs bedroom without anyone making a fuss. It is just loud enough on its own so you don't really need headphones. The other part of "adult beginner" is I am old and have messed around with a lot of music-related things over the years and I read a ton. So I knew better than to make a lot of first-timer buyer assumptions. For instance; it comes assembled (I hesitate to say "set up") but not tuned. Really, it should come with the bridge in a box and the strings in their packs, but never mind. As an experienced buyer of bargain instruments I didn't even bother tuning the strings it came with and dropped thirty bucks on a new set of Thomastik Alphayue's. I had no trouble with peg slippage (the reverse, actually), but then I'm a uke player and used to having to shove the pegs in to make them firm up. The electronics worked (sans headphones, which came out of the box with one dead channel already but who cares? I've got better headphones already). But that's not really fair to ask of me, because I'm an electronics tinkerer and as long as the pickup was okay I really didn't care if the electronics worked. The finish was nice and none of it came off on my hands, everything seemed straight and nothing has fallen off. In short, a fantastic instrument. A word of caution. I get the impression from other reviews that Cecilio's build quality is excellent but their quality control lacking. You might get a lemon. So box it back up and have them ship another. Because I got one with no issues I've been able to detect. Well, okay...the hairs on the bow are a wee bit ragged, but it is a starter bow anyhow, and a nice student-quality carbon fibre is only another thirty bucks or so. The two purchases I made within a few weeks of starting to play were a Snark tuner and a Resonance shoulder rest. The Snark works just fine clipped to the upper bout, which puts it at a comfortable viewing angle. So give it a good inspection, put some decent strings on it, and be prepared to add a few more bits and pieces to pimp the ride a little, and I think it will support the adult beginner for the first few years of learning to play a violin.

Keep scrolling of you're looking for an impression from a seasoned player. I'm not one. I've played enough instruments to know if a sound is off though, and once I'd attended enough YouTube University to tune it (and hold it) I was pleasantly surprised to get a pretty clear note. I'm an apartment dweller, but really wanted to learn violin, so the "silent" grabbed by attention. It's not completely silent, it's clearly audible enough to tune by ear and practice with without headphones, BUT it's quiet enough that no one's complaining. Out of the whole kit, it looks like the production cost was all spent on the instrument. Barring the cheap but fully functional electrics, it looks good and has no defects marring playability. All of the tuning hardware does what it's supposed to do, with no issues. The bow is warped and doesn't have curve at all when it's slack, but it more or less functions. The headphones are a couple steps down from the bulk package headphones that public schools hand out with Chromebooks. The rosin more or less does what rosin does. The case is functional and looks decent, should hold up and protect the instrument from minor accidents. I have some Bose QC30 headphones that I love, good rosin is relatively cheap, and I'm enjoying the instrument enough that I'm already reading reviews on new bows. The verdict? As an older beginner who wanted to try it to see if he'd like it, but didn't want to resort to pawn shops and garage sales, I'm pretty stinking happy. It's good enough to get the point across, and cheap enough that it wouldn't have felt like a loss if I decided I don't like learning violin.

Before I start, it is best to know that I am a novice to the violin, so fellow beginners may find my review useful, while those that have more experience under their belt may find it over-enthusiastic. With that being said, I shall break down what I find good, 'meh', and bad. The Good: - The case is amazing quality. It is light-weight but sturdy and could probably take a good bit of a beating when toted around. The zippers zip and unzip easily - though, the zipper on the small front pocket needs a bit of force when zipping it back up around the left corner.All the straps feel secure and the rubber grip on the side strap is very comfortable. The interior is a beautiful sky blue velvet material that really makes the red of the mahogany violin pop. - The violin itself is stunning. The photo did not do the color of it any justice. The photo makes it seem more like it is a deep burgundy when it is, in fact, a rich, red mahogany. The fading on the back of the neck definitely adds to its beauty. - EDIT: The strings do just fine. The sound they produce is clean and crisp. I will not be replacing them until they need to be replaced as they do their job right. - The rosin is Cecilio's own brand and they claim it is of high-quality. I was surprised that it was dark rosin as I had heard that light rosin is best for violas and violins while dark was for cellos and bass, but it did it's job perfectly. - DAT PRICE TAG. The MEH: - The bow is alright. I was disappointed to find, like others, that it was fully tightened, which is a big no-no. A few of the hairs were already snapped - I am unsure if that is the norm with new bows or if it was because it was fully tightened. I will most likely replace it in the future with a better quality bow. - The AUX cable seems fine, I don't have an amp to test it and I probably wont use it for a very long time, if ever, but it was nice to have one included in case one planned to use an amp. - The fingerboard does leave a black residue on the fingers when touched. A simple swipe of a thin cloth easily cleans it off. - The battery is nothing special, the usual free battery brand you get with almost anything, but hey, free battery. - EDIT: The pegs definitely need peg dope freshly applied when you get it. My G and E pegs would not stick when I tried to tune the strings. The Bad: - The headphones are the cheapest pieces of crap I have ever had the misfortune of touching. They went straight into the trash. I rather they weren't even included in the set. - There are some imperfections with the paint. There is a drip streak along the concave curve on the back and some build up on the ribs, nose, and scroll. I do not find them to be terribly bad, and I understand that every violin is hand crafted and painted, but others may find the imperfection as a disappointment to the quality. Overall, even with a few bads and some 'meh's, it still gets 5 stars from me, because I do love it. I would definitely recommend this to fellow beginners that wish to learn how to play an electric violin but don't want to blow a hole in their wallets. [I have recieved my tuner and have edited my review as promised. Still love it.]
