Reviews
The music resource for education magazine 'ZONE' recently published a review of the full size version of this violin and said:
"Any student, as I was, would be impressed by the striking rather than anonymous look of the instrument. There is much to celebrate - the glossy varnish coupled with the splendid 'antiqued' look would generate enthusiastic ownership."
"The proportions of this full-size violin tick all of the required boxes. I particularly like the scroll and purflings."
"In conclusion, without doubt the instrument is very competitively priced and represents excellent value for money."
