I have had my violin for two years and it's amazing to play on this instrument. This violin is amazing and one of the best.

I'm an adult beginner violinist--this shoulder rest is perfect for providing a more relaxed/comfortable hold of the violin and allows me to practice for longer periods of time than without it. Love it.

I was truly amazed at the quality and set up of the full size Bunnel violin. It is perfect for a beginner who needs a full size violin at a reasonable price. It is easy to make a good sound from the beginning notes. The case is well built and the bow adequate for a beginner. There is an excellent guarantee as well. Happy in San Fernando Valley, California

A plush lining along with a tough outer shell covered with fabric will give me peace of mind when my violin travels with me. A well constructed piece of gear that will gives years of use.

I had never tried playing violin before making my purchase but Kennedy Violins has lots of helpful videos for getting started.

I've used only synthetic core strings since I started playing, so this is a new experience for me. The sound is definitely different. I have several violins, one with synthetic and one with steel. I switch off depending on what I want to play, but gradually I am loving the steel strings more. A crisp sound that is more in line with fiddle playing as opposed to the mellow sound of the synthetic strings on the other violing.

I bought this violin for my mother who wanted to learn. I have played guitar for many years and understand that a proper setup is essential for any stringed instrument. After some research I found Kennedy violins and decided to give them a shot. I was very impressed with the instrument and my mother’s violin teacher was also very impressed. Since then Kennedy has been very responsive to questions from my mom so their support is top notch. I highly recommend this company, you will not be disappoi...

I practiced playing Violin in grade school. I recently got gifted a beautiful violin and would like to learn it again. The finger placement chart I purchased should help me tremendously as I relearn how to play and enjoy this beautiful instrument.

Absolutely beautiful violin! I'm a newbie to the violin but I wanted a great instrument to start off with that I wouldn't outgrow anytime soon. The folks at Kennedy Violins were super helpful when it come to helping me decide on which would be the right violin for me. Very knowledgeable staff, friendly and helpful. The violin is a beauty! Dark color with beautiful flame on the back and sides. I'm blown away at the great craftsmanship and feel of this instrument. I wish I could play to gi...

I need this type of violin for use in outdoor performances/ extreme conditions, etc.. The quality of the Bunnell NeXt violin is exceptional. The price? Unbelievable and much lower than any other similar instruments. Perfectly set up by Kennedy. What more to say?

We love Kennedy Violins! This is our 3rd violin we've purchased from Kennedy. It sounds beautiful! Our violin teacher is impressed with the sound quality from all 3 of our violins (1/4, 1/2 and 4/4 sizes). Plus the customer service is amazing. My daughter loves playing on the new violin. We upgraded to the better strings. It sounds great!

LOVE this violin! The setup Kennedy did is awesome. It feels exactly like my professional acoustic violin- it stays in tune, the pegs are well fitted, the fingerboard is comfortable and the strings are well spaced. I can transition between the two with no problems at all. I would gladly use this violin in a semi-professional setting if I had occasion to. I expected this to be on par with the beginner violins that my students bring in. Quite the opposite. I've found myself practicing more becau...

I'm old and kind of skinny, and my collar bone is heavy and prominent. So much so that it becomes a fulcrum on which the violin rocks. It is almost impossible to play when it does that. Bought this after my teacher showed me her BonMusica rest. I've adjusted it so my violin is now quite stable and it's MUCH EASIER to play without hitting the wrong string. The hook around my back really stabilizes the violin so I can hold it up with my chin, which frees my left hand to do it's dance on the ...

Working with your people to buy my electric violin was a wonderful experience. They were so helpful. The violin and accessories that I added came in a few days. It took a bit longer because I ordered geared pegs and special strings to be installed. I’m just starting on this violin adventure so I’m happy with this beautiful instrument.

I did a bow trial with 2 carbon fiber bows and 2 Pernambuco bows. This was the cheapest of the 4 but I instantly fell in love with it. It made my violin sing. It's never sounded so good. I even had the other members of my worship team and husband do a blind listen to the 4 bows and they all picked this one as the one that sounded best. I play a Snow SV300 violin, and my other bow is an Arcos Brasil carbon fiber.

Everyone at Kennedy Violins is awesome! When I asked questions they were answered with detail in a timely manner. With each answer I gained valuable knowledge. Kennedy Violins empowered me to make a more informed decision on my violin purchase. The Primo violin is beautiful and sounds even more beautiful! Customized and setup with upgraded tuners and bow, I couldn’t be happier!

Although I was initially sent a rosin different from what I ordered, I received prompt service and not only got the rosin I had ordered but was able to keep the first rosin as well which was quite a bonus! Both are good quality and I like the sound and ease of use of the Kaplan Premium rosin. I have not yet tried the Artcraft one. I am very happy with Kennedy's customer support and prompt service. It is nice to order from them.

We purchased this violin for my 23 year old daughter. She took lessons when she was younger now as an adult is wanting to start playing again she is still a beginner so at this time doesn't need anything more. We both thought it was a very pretty violin and I myself could not fine anything blemishes to be considered a clearance item. Overall very pleased with the sound and how it looks. It came very quickly I'm so glad I came across this company!

Great customer service for a bow that would not relax tension on the hair. This was a new bow that came with my Kennedy violin outfit. After consulting with the tech at Kennedy a new bow was sent to me that works perfectly. Thanks!

Haven’t played violins yet but having inspected them they seem to be an excellent value. I can tell they have the rich mellow tone I’m looking for. Beautiful craftsmanship. I appreciate Kennedy Violin’s professionalism. I highly recommend

I have three other CF bows, one the same price as the Kennedy , one twice the price and one 7+ times the price. It is the best of the two cheaper bows and even compares pretty well with my Codabow on simpler tunes.

No more shaky bow!! As a beginning violinist I have to say it makes learning a pleasure. Tracking, string crossings, and sound just better and easier. Shipped 32 minutes after I ordered, and arrived in 3 days! Great service.

This is a beautiful violin. I’m so glad it comes all tuned up and ready to play! This is my first attempt at my life long dream of learning to play violin. It’s so nice it comes with all I need to practice and learn. Beginners book, rosin, tuner, extra strings and a beautiful sturdy case so as to when I become good enough I can play at church. Thank you!

This carbon fiber bow is very cool. Super light weight, nice to play with, and goes well with a darkly stained lion's head violin. Everything I've ever gotten from Kennedy has been quality, and this bow is exactly what I would expect. Beautiful, well balanced, and just a classy piece of workmanship.

I had an old bow from about 20 years ago and wanted something nicer. This bow handles well and compared to what I had it's very nice. I'm a beginner so I don't have much to base my thoughts on yet, but I think this bow will help grow my skill. Thank you.

I study violin at university, I would say this is a really good product, I do think it’s worth the money. It will take time to completely adjust the whole shoulder rest to your own comfort level, but it’s worth it.

This bow is a good weight for my 16.5 " viola, lively yet able to pull the right sounds out of the G & C strings. The balance feels quite good. At 70.6 g, this bow also is quite flexible as I tested scales, and has good bounce when I auditioned it on arpeggios.

I have been using EcoRosin for a week now and my impressions are quite positive. As advertised this rosin grips the string quite well and produces a very nice sound, particularly on the G and D strings. I had been using Bernardel rosin for over ten years, which I do like, but at this point in time I am glad I made the change.
