Ever since I received this instrument, I have compared with a number of violins including the 300 year-old one made by or attributed to David Tecchler. Although this violin does not really reveal a very dark and throaty tone like the one by David Tecchler, nor piercingly bright, it is colored between alto and soprano, with the warmth and resonance of a darker sound yet the crisp and energetic brilliance of a soloist instrument. Its beauty lies in its balanced, responsive, expressive and complex voice with an unusually found ringing tone. The violin was apparently newly made with a strong smell of fresh golden varnish. I believe that the tone of the violin will be further improved down the road with proper playing and care. I am grateful to Ifstring for letting me purchase this valuable instrument!!!Read full review

Fantastic, especially for the price. I have another big name Chinese violin that cost about the same and this is easily twice the instrument. It has the Heifetz grit and tonal complexity without being harsh, and still projects easily. Sounds like a $2-3k violin. Seems well constructed with quality finishings, fitted Aubert bridge, Tonica strings, and comes in a decent foam case. Can't wait to buy one of their Master Builds.

Great sounding and responsive violin. Nice setup. The only problem is the Tonica strings, and that is personal preference. Sounds and plays even better with Infeld Red strings. Can't wait to try one of the Private Stock violins. One day, I'll come up with the money... Great violin for the price.

I am shocked... It sounds WAY better than my $5000 German violin. It was wrapped very nicely and arrived in Japan from the US in a week. Thank you so much. 100% recommend!
