Probably one of the best electric violins for this price in the market. Of course, sound was expected to be a little better, but for recordings (that's what I needed) it can be improved with effects, I strongly recommend to change stock strings (chose Thomastik Dominant, should admit they're great) and show it to a luthier.
Must say that even luthier was suprised by the quality and that wood is actually same as mentioned in description. The only problem he found was the bridge, should've been cut and placed better, but definitely not something good luthier can't fix.
Another small thing to notice - bow that came in set wasn't purple as on picture, but according to luthier it isn't bad at all, no need to replace.
