Highlights
Quality
I just started taking lessons and my instructor told me that it has great sound and is well made.
I started trying to teach myself and thought this was well made and had good sound.
I could barely hold it up and was lost behind it both literally and figuratively.
A lot of beginner violins have that screechy student violin sound, but not this one.
Price
For this amount of money, it's a great student violin.
This is without a doubt the best violin you’re going to get under $1,000.
You’re getting a $1,500 violin for less than $500.
I knew they would cost a few hundred dollars but i was relived that i didn't waste my money on this instrument.
Shipping
It arrived promptly and earlier than initially stated it would.
Considering that i am in connecticut and kennedy violins is in washington, it is impressively quick delivery.
They sent me the shipping label immediately and i shipped the violin without any cost.
I ended up receiving my package even earlier than expected and my wife was able to unwrap it for christmas.
Packaging/appearance
And thank you for the wonderful packaging as well as the violin.
From the "quality sealed" packaging to the smallest piece of this purchase i can't imagine being more pleased.
I got a black case with grey lining, and a matching cloth to cover the violin.
Only complaint is that i thought it came with a shoulder rest as shown in the image but i didn’t get one.
Competitiveness
It is competing with other brands and i am glad it was made locally.
After doing hours of research there was no better choice than kennedy.
Sound quality was rated high - that is why i chose it over other brands.
)i was trying to decide between this outfit and another rather common brand at 100 dollars less.

I played cello and trombone in school and guitar for many years after that but i was too impatient to learn to read music learn proper finger positioning to play without looking or learn proper technique so i reached a point where it was impossible to advance any further or play with speed and clarity so i put down the guitar for about fifteen years
