I'm not qualified to say. I don't play it myself , I bought it for my daughter and was able to tune it up and after strings were broken in it's holding its tuning and sounds good and resonant to me. I will say that if it is not good for your level you could easily resell it and not lose much money .

If you mean advace, as in professional, I wouldn't but this violin has a wide range and carries a good tune. I do recommend cleaning and putting some resin on the pegs. It help it stay in tune.

It is good for beginners and intermediate use in school bands. A very good option for beginning musicians.

According to the manufacture discription it should be fine. "Ideal for beginners 8 and up (adult supervision req'd)Designed for young archers new to compound bows"

Your answer is yes it is. Its design and depth is definitely for you. May I suggest purchasing finger ease . It will be probably more comfortable if you are persistent in your endeavor to learn

The Stentor Violin is a great instrument for a beginner. I've been playing one for a year and haven't had any issues. It comes with a nice , durable case.

It's good for any beginner! I am 18 and I just started and I'm a bit late in the game but! Yes, in my opinion I think it's great! I bought this violin knowing nothing about this instrument and I picked a great choice!

I purchased the instrument for a beginner. The instrument was in great condition and came with all you would need for the instrument such as cleaning tools, tuning tools, etc.

Yes, but I returned it and bought another one at Fiddleheads which my daughter's violin teacher recommended: http://www.facebook.com/FiddleheadsViolinSchool?ref=hl. For almost the same price, the introductory student violin has a better quality.

I am not an expert, but did purchase this bow for my 10 year old grandson who is also a beginner. I think you would still need some guidance from someone who has used a bow to be sure you follow safety rules and to help you get a good start in this sport. My grandson loved his gift and his father provided the guidance and a safe place to practice.

It does make good sound! Up past a high d or so it can get a little squeaky if you aren't careful.. It was in fine shape when I bought it, though it was already strung and the g and e strings broke, but I restrung it anyway. I've played better instruments of course, and I just bought this one really to see if I could get a decent violin for that cheap, and I did! All of what you receive is worth more than what you pay for. I'd recommend it for if you wanted a colored violin for festivals, a special/themed concert, or just for practice and the occasion orchestra rehearsal or concert.

Your violin teacher should be able to answer that, but it also depends on the size of the child. My 9 year old has used both during the past year. I would be more concerned with the quality of the violin because that makes a great deal of difference to a beginner.

I would guess this would be just right for a beginner. My 13 year old daughter does just fine with it. I would suggest going to a local music store to purchase different reeds, however. The reeds that come with it are not great, and sometimes don't work well.

Hey Chris, are 912 reviews not enough for ya? For the price, it looks like the majority agree that it's 3.5 out of 5. Again, for the price, you will not find a better violin. If you want to spend $200+, you will get a proper 'beginner' violin, but that's a commitment decision you have to make. There are more expensive violins that suck more than this one, there are also better versions from the same company for a bit more (CVN-200, 300, etc.) So, how dedicated or picky are you?

yes this is a very good beginner violin for the price, it may be quite uncomfortable without a shoulder rest though.

Yes. I took it to a violin shop to have it tuned and evaluated. Great tone, easy to play. Excellent quality for the price.

It was in excellent shape when I bought it. It sounds good to me (as a parent) and I find that it is staying in tune now better than when we first bought it. So I would recommend it as a beginner violin.

I bought it as a beginner and really enjoy it, even now. It is good quality and produces a good tone. The sound is not "professionally" good, but will definitely do for learning as a beginner. The wood is good and sturdy, not to mention the appeal of it is great. Hope I helped!!!
