買violin 的好去處

reei

i bought mine and my daughter's from solo strings. we are happy customers there. my daughter's teacher said her violin is of good quality.

some time ago, but it was around hkd3500 if i am not mistaken.
their prices are all listed on their website, with trade in guaranteed listed as well.

depends on your expectation. we are just learning, not professional, so, we need violins that are in tune. not playing half way a piece have to tune the violin again. as you know, for violin, finger placement on the fingerboard and hearing the tone is very important. if the violins always out of tune, not good for learning. it is good for learning, but it is not a masterpiece.

以3k半從solostring買到的琴，可能跟iLoveThisCow從廠攞嘅1千蚊琴差無幾。話就可以半價trade in, 其實等於賺多你一次！

why such negativity on solo strings? any personal experience?

i am thinking of rehairing the bow and probably change the bridge. but the cost is almost hkd1000+ to do that. i wonder if i should upgrade to a better grade , like exclusive or elite from solo strings. but i heard from you, some comment that solo strings "cheat"? so i just want to find out more info.
btw, any luthier recommendation?
thanks.
