First of all, I am originally an electric guitar player so this is my first violin. As far as sound goes, it makes the sound I'd expect from a beginners violin, take into consideration that I'm a beginner.
I am more than pleased with the package, everything you need is included, even two different cloths for polishing. Setup was already made by the staff at Thomann, the tuning was a breeze although it took a while for the strings to "settle".
Here's the only downside: The picture illustrating the violin is plain wrong! In reality, It doesn't have that dark wood burst, it just looks like an ordinary light wood violin. If it weren't for the fact that I expected a different finish, I'd rate it five stars.
