EVA-330

I am very impressed with this violin. It arrived exceptionally well packed which is so important, as violins need to be handled carefully. The shipping packaging helped ensure this and the actual instrument case is much higher quality than I had expected to receive with a violin at this price - it is strong and sturdy with handles and shoulder straps for easy carrying. Opening the case showed that the violin was shipped with the strings loosened and the bridge removed. This is sensible as it is less likely the bridge will be damaged in transport but does then require some assembly before being payable. The bridge must be placed correctly, which is not tricky, but can require a little care and concentration to do properly. If you have not done this before there are plenty of easy to follow tutorials online (or any music shop should be able to set this up and tune the violin for you without any problems). Violins are considered one of the toughest instruments to tune, but I found assembling the bridge and tuning very simple with this violin - the pegs stay in place well and using the included electronic tuner with the fine tuning pegs makes it very easy to keep the violin in tune. I am no professional, but even with my less than perfect playing the sound is clear and crisp and the violin has a great rich resonance. This is a perfect violin for me - as someone returning to this instrument with only some limited memory of the way to play - and also for someone starting out (I handed this to my nine year old daughter and she seems to have fallen in love with it already). This is a complete package with everything needed to get going. The electronic tuner is a great addition in the kit and a very important item to have. The included shoulder rest will be very useful for many people, although I prefer to use a simple cloth over my shoulder (I have not played the violin for many years and did not have such luxuries back then, so using a cloth is probably more out of habit than anything else, but having the rest as an option is a great bonus). Including two bows is also really useful. It is so easy to catch the bow on the violin body when starting out that having a ‘spare’ - in case one needs to be repaired - will be indispensable to me over the next few months I am sure. The bows are definitely new as there is no rosin on them when they arrive. This meant they required a good rubbing on the rosin block to achieve any sound. The rosin block provided is a light rosin - perfect for violins - and required only light scratching to adhere well to the bow hair. This kit even contains a set of spare strings which meant I was a lot less worried when tuning the violin (should I have broken a string at least I had a spare available immediately). Each of these items would have required buying anyway, so it is great to have them all together at no additional cost. This is a very well made violin with great sound and everything needed to get going. I don’t think I could have asked for anything more at such a reasonable price.

è di scarsa qualità, ma per cominciare va bene, è abbastanza completo

Parfait belle instrument une surprise pour se prix là

Je le trouve très joli ma fille de 5 ans aussi, tout est inclus l'archet la collophane l'épaulière, même un jeu de corde supplémentaire. On peut trouver moins cher mais il n'y a pas l'épaulière par exemple. Made in china mais comme tous pour pour le budget, introuvable autrement. Je recommande

Por fin ha llegado a mis manos el violín Eastar Eva-330. El violín ha llegado perfectamente embalado y a salvo de golpes. Funda semi rígida de bastante buena calidad. Dos arcos justitos pero que te hacen el apaño. Lástima de la colofonia que ha llegado un poco rota. El violín sorprende por su calidad y buenos acabados. El puente, evidentemente, viene desmontado. Ármate de paciencia para afinarlo. El afinador ayuda, pero yo al final lo he hecho a oído. Aguanta bien la afinación. No me ha gustado la posición del alma, creo que debería ir medio centímetro más hacia el cordal. El cordal es malucho, pero funciona y da el pego. Las clavijas, la barbada y el diapasón no son de ébano, es madera teñida. Las cuerdas son justitas, pero peleonas. No obstante es una muy buena opción, por lo que vale no puedes esperar un Stradivarius. Si quieres aprender a tocar el violín, ésta es la mejor opción.
