  • In the world of quality electric violins, this is the very best value.
You cannot get more for less money. The better violins cost vastly more but are not crazy better than going with this. Diminishing returns for the money once you move up the price range. What's cheaper than this is not nearly as good. So this violin hits a sweet spot in the market. If you buy this and give up on playing the violin or hate it, then you'll have no trouble selling this. This isn't about what's best but more of a value for the money should you be serious about getting into violins or adding your first electric to the collection. Also, isn't that such a pretty shape? Ergonomics are great if you are coming from acoustic violins and the extra weight is more towards your shoulder so you can still feel comfortable with this one. If your brand new to violins and want sonething that can be played quietly or paired with wild effects for fun, consider buying one of these. Find what works for you, however do yourself a favor and go through a ton of research. You'll be glad you did. I must go now, lots to learn on a violin. Patience lol ... show more

  • I love this violin! 🎻
The media could not be loaded. The overall quality of this instrument is amazing! Pretty easy to tune though I feel the pegs could be fitted a tad better. The action is relatively low which is perfect for doing clean fast runs, so this instrument will force you to focus more on tone rather than projection since it’s obviously amplified. One of the things I love about this violin is that it still has the normal harmonics of a regular violin. You can hear and feel when you are in tune. Perfect for gigging and practicing. ... show more

  • Beautiful instrument, excellent for quiet practice without amp, headphones
I wanted to practice violin but with my spouse working from home, I had few options. I wanted to try a silent violin or electric violin and fell in love with the appearance of the YEV-104, but I don't have an amplifier, and you can't plug headphones directly into this instrument and expect to hear anything. I was delighted to find that I can indeed get a decent, though quiet, sound from the YEV-104 without an amp! It's like playing my acoustic violin with a practice mute. I can hear what I'm playing, the wood of the frame resonates like my acoustic, and my shoulder rests fit perfectly. The YEV-104 weighs more than my acoustic violin, but otherwise, feels the same. It fits my standard violin case. The YEV-104 is gorgeous to look at. The sculptural look of the frame, an infinity-loop, caught my eye the first time I saw it, so it begs to be played. It will be an eye-catching instrument to perform with. BIG THANK YOU to instrumentpro; ordered my violin on a Thursday morning, (used, like new conditions - and it looks like a new instrument!) and it arrived, well-packed, on Saturday afternoon. Super transaction! Will write a follow-up review when I am able to play it with an amplifier. ... show more

  • Simply great!
I am a classically trained violinist/fiddler, and have been playing for over 60 years. This is a fine electric violin, at a great price. I have played a number of electrics including the supposed "electric strad". This relatively inexpensive (1/4 the price) simply blows them away (and looks better). Very satisfied. ... show more

  • so disappointed
I have been playing violin for the past 33 years and bought this one as my first electric one. I knew Yamaha would not disappoint since I have experience with other yamaha instruments and the quality is really good. sounds just like I expected and I love playing it. waaay more fun than clasic violin to me. But after not even a month and me playing a lot due to my planned performance the violin cracked while! playing right under my chinrest because the wood is sooo thin! I have had 5 clasical violin one of them super expensive and had never had any issues or problems usinf the same Wolf shoulder rest. I am disappointed and hope the seller will help me resolve this. Fisrt photo you can see how thin the wood is, second photo shows the crack. I just want to add that I stored the violin properly from the beginning in its own case and it never left my room since it was delivered to me. ... show more

  • Good sound for the price
Well built looks nice and have a rich nice sound. Of course, there are better sounding options out there but for the price couldn't ask for more.

What an excellent musical instrument!!! Wonderful sound out of the box. Setup is easy. Sounds amazing with a fender guitar amp.
