Stylish and classic.
I bought this as a beginner, I am taking lessons with a proffesional violin player. The teacher was very impressed about the quality of the violin for its price. The bridge of the violin is in the middle and sits at the right angle.. The violin has a very good quality tone and I would recommend buying a Yamaha clip on tuner if you don`t have a piano. It is much easy to tune the first time with the tuner and it does come with a battery, ready to use. The whole Yamaha V5SC 44/SC-44 product is to be highly recommended. Enjoy *
