Description

Additional Company Info: Over 50 years ago, Cremona Violins outfits were developed specifically for the vibrant and growing educational community to successfully meet or exceed the needs of parents, students, and teachers at every level. Each instrument harkens back to a tradition that began centuries ago in ITALY - the cradle of violin making – and is still renowned for introducing the finest, best sounding, and most valuable instruments ever created. Since their introduction, Cremona violins have been considered by many to be a pioneer in the development of educational string instruments, and one of the first American companies to import violins directly from China for distribution in the USA and to more than 50 countries world-wide. To this day, Cremona continues to be a leading brand that many have tried to emulate Cremona can also be credited with many “industry firsts,” including the introduction of traditional Italian violin construction techniques to China, as well as exotic hardwoods used for fittings, global sourced tonewoods, as well as bridges from France and premium strings - all with the intention of offering the finest orchestral string instrument outfits that anyone could afford. Cremona has also played a key role in defining international sizing and specification standards as required by educators around the world by adhering to MENC mandates as well as recommendations from discerning experts in the field from around the world. Using this knowledge and expertise, our luthiers continue to focus on quality and value by perfecting traditional finish techniques, refining production processes and distribution methods; further solidifying our stellar reputation in the now cluttered field of educational string instruments. Notable hallmarks to our success include hand- crafted instrument with lightweight construction and meticulous attention to every detail; assuring quality workmanship, exceptional tone, playability and value that exceeds the expectations of parents, teachers and students everywhere. Each Cremona Outfit or Bundle is equipped with everything the aspiring musician needs to succeed, including high-quality Prelude strings at initial setup in our US workshop, a resilient and dependable Brazilwood bow, rosin and a lightweight case that is durable, reliable and easy to carry. In addition to all the features of our Cremona outfits, Cremona’s new Orchestral Bundles (available in certain models) includes even more accessories to enhance the player experience like a lightweight shoulder rest for comfort, and an extra set of Anton Breton Perlon strings to add even more value.

  • Sounds good, plays well, finish has very noticeable flaws
Model: SV-800
I gave this 4 stars for the fact that the one I received plays well and sounds really good for this price point. The chin rest is borderline horrible and when I removed it the cork just fell apart. There is a ding all the way through the finish beneath the front of the tailpiece and near where the tailpiece attaches the is a dull, rough bare spot which almost looks as though it had a piece of tape on it that stripped the finish. However since it plays and sounds good, I replaced the chin rest and at some point, since it's well made otherwise, I'll probably strip the lacquer finish and finish it properly and it will be fine as a second violin. Since it was 30% off when I bought it, so 399.99, it's worth keeping and refinishing. ... show more

  • Beautiful violin that sounds as amazing as it looks!
Model: SV-800
I bought this violin as a backup for my late 1800s Mirecourt. I travel between two locations due to my job and was tired of lugging my violin on a plane every few weeks. Well, now I have a bit of a problem because this violin is kinda sorta my favorite right now. I didn't want it to be this way. I also have a student violin, which I was using as my backup, though it was not up to the task so I decided to buy another one. I did NOT expect the SV-800 to be so amazing. The SV-800 sounds fantastic with a nice rich, warm tone. It contrasts with the strong bright tone of my Mirecourt. This violin responds very well and all notes are spot on and crisp. The spacing of the strings above the fingerboard is exactly where I would expect them to be. Not only does it play extremely well, it looks quite amazing too. The purfling looks fantastic. Some things to beware of with violins, especially from China, is the claim of having inlaid purfling, which usually turns out to be drawn on instead of cut into the violin. This is the real deal. In fact, I am not sure I have seen any violin in this price range with real purfling. But it is legit real and I took some pictures added below. The color is nice, with a bit of antiquing, plus the finish is wonderful. One would assume the varnish is sprayed on, but you can't tell, meaning there are no runs or heavy spots. It likely isn't hand varnished, but if it were the price would probably have another digit someplace. The description is a little vague in that area, saying... "attractive golden brown imitation-old hand applied varnish." I admit it may be hand varnished, but it would be hard to imagine so in this price range. Either way, they did it right and it looks fantastic without looking like a think heavy glossy clear coat. Instead the wood grain comes though quite well, with a slight orange hue. It looks exactly like the photos honestly, described as a dull patina and I could not agree more. The back and sides are a beautiful flamed maple and the top is good quality spruce. It really looks gorgeous, just like the photos. The strings are excellent quality Thomastik Dominant with a French-made Aubert bridge. Both are excellent quality and I was quite happy to see them on this violin! Those are signs of good quality and are not cheap by any means. In fact just those two items are about 5-7% of the purchase price of the violin. The fingerboard is ebony, which can often be faked by other manufacturers. Nice quality materials matter and it shows on the SV-800. There are a few things they need to take care of to really step up the game. The decorative disks on the pegs were loose when my violin arrived. It is not a big deal, and I just added a bit of epoxy and secured them in place, but you expect everything to be secured at the factory. I will add a few photos so you can see what I mean. Not a big deal in the scheme of things, but if not secured they tend to buzz when playing the violin. The pegs are nice and quite decorative. I wished they exited the pegbox on the ends, rather than terminate slightly inside. It would add quite a bit to the look if they protruded a bit. Instead you see the raw wood which sticks out to my eye as a new violin rather than looking like the antique patina they are striving for with this model. Minor comment that really doesn't matter much but the minor details count when trying to portray quality. The most important item that needs to be corrected is the bow, which in the description says, "deluxe Pernambuco bow." It is actually Brazilwood in the kit I received. They come from the same tree, but the Pernambuco is very tightly grained and comes from the center of the tree. My bow is very clearly Brazilwood and that was a huge letdown. I was really looking forward to the bow! Enough about the negatives... the case is quite nice and there is plenty of room for music books on the outer zip pocket. Inside the colors are nice and there is plenty of support for the violin body so the neck does not have to bear any of the load. There are spots for 4 bows, a large pocket for a shoulder rest, plus rosin and other odds and ends. There are carry straps on the sides and one on the end so it can stand vertically, which is quite nice. One of my little support feet fell out right away, and I took a photo of why. Not that big of a deal to me, but the little things matter if you want to appear to be top notch. The violin sounds top notch in my book, so a few odds and ends polished up and this violin can compete with others at easily twice the price. It is that simple! This is a 5-star review because for the money I paid, this is an amazing instrument that sounds just beautiful. It looks great and is wonderful to play too. I am extremely satisfied. It makes me a little sad that my real antique violin is now in the position of second fiddle. ... show more

  • Good basic product but awful quality control
Model: SV-800
The quality on these violins is extremely variable. The first one I bought was excellent - really good value for the price: a nice sounding, attractive, and very playable violin, a decent case, and a perfectly usable bow - so I bought another one (I live in several places and it saves traveling with the violin each time). The second one arrived (from the packaging it was obvious it was a previous customer return), and when I attempted to tune it the A string immediately snapped, then I realised they had shipped it with the A and G strings swapped (!!!) so of course the G string could not support being tuned over an octave higher. So much for being set up at the workshop - it had obviously never even been tuned. Also part of the case was missing. The violin itself looked ok just the setup was wrong and piece of case missing. So I sent that one back and got a replacement. The replacement was really poor quality: terrible varnish (they completely missed large areas), very sticky pegs (untunable really), and the bow could not be tensioned more than 1/3 of the way before jamming. It's a real shame, because if you get a decent one, these can be very good violins for the price. If they had all been like the first one I would not hesitate to give it 5 stars, but the quality control deserves a zero. Being amazon, if you have the patience and stick with it you can return the bad ones and end up with a nice violin (I did, in the end), but it's a pity they can't get it right from the start. ... show more

  • Violin is great if you get the real thing, Case is something to be desired
Model: SV-800
The case was damaged when I received it in a very clean box, however it was obviously missed in quality control before shipping. The bow came loose and scratched the lower bout of the violin in transit. I asked for a replacement, amazon sent one just as quick, however the case was broke in the EXACT same spot and the violin was NOT a Cremona. I tried to leave a more descriptive review of that fact but Amazon censored my review. I ended up keeping the first violin and sent the "second" one back. I will say, Its a BEAUTIFUL sounding instrument but BE CAREFUL you honestly get your Cremona SV800. It will have a Saga tag on the Scroll/Neck area when you receive it and it will have a manufactures label inside. I am very happy with it, scratches and all. Just know, there is NO QUALITY control buying from amazon in this purchase I fear. ... show more

  • Buyer Beware
Model: SV-800
My violin came with a broken fine tuner for the E string as well as a locked case!!! I had to buy a special screwdriver attachment to get the lock open only to find the key inside the violin. The bow also had the hairs strung poorly so when you tightened the bow, strands of hair were still loose and had to be plucked. Problems with this instrument and no way to contact manufacturer. ... show more

  • Buyer Beware
Model: SV-800
Took it to a violin shop locally to have it looked at. The fingerboard was warped. Returned the instrument immediately.
