Someone told me that this violin does not come with strings when you buy it, is that true?

Not true. It comes with strings and is playable as received; although minor setup is suggested. I use mine almost daily for (nearly) silent practice.
1962237
Even if it didn't, you would want better quality ones. I outfitted mine with D'Addario Helicores.

Mine came with the strings - they were already on the violin but very very loose when I received them. I just had to tune them and they were ready to go... but this model seemed particularly annoying to tune compared to my usual / original violin.

The violin that we purchased came equipped with strings already installed. Most of them snapped upon first tuning. We are experience with violins, so this means the strings are of poor quality. Do your self a favor and order a set of better quality strings in addition to the violin. Would suggest Daddario prelude steel strings ($15?). They are USA made, and will work well on an electric violin.All the best!

It does come with strings. But they sound really tinny. You'd probably have to replace them soon anyway.

This violin comes with all the strings. I am very satisfied with the purchase as I play every week for my church and since I'm the only stringed instrument I need to be heard!

It does come with strings already on it. Some people complain about the strings but I have not had any issues.

When I got my violin and the strings were new when I tightened each if you watch a u tube video it shows you how to tightened the strings I did all the strings each one just a little till it was close to being in tune then I used a little pressure and pushed the pegs in till they were snug and if this don't help then u might need to buy the peg drops. I hope this works for you the violin is a very nice instrument from this company it has a great sound.

First it is a very nice guitar with a very good electric sound but no acoustic sound. Yes, the guitar comes already stringed with basic nylon strings but I replaced mine with Aquila Alabastro Superior Chitarra Classica strings. The guitar does not come with care or maintenance manual. Any standard classical guitar strings will fit the guitar. Another user suggested Savarez 500CJ strings as a perfect fit for the guitar. I plan to try them next time I replace my strings.

yes it does come with string, but i still ordered a few extras. Hard to string, I had to get my husband and son to string it because I didn't have enough strength. Love this item otherwise

The violin I ordered did come with a case. However, I cannot say that every seller will provide one

Yes it comes pre-strung. It's a fantastic racket. However, I would suggest you buy spare strings because the original ones gave way in less than a month.

not sure if is has aquila strings but they are very good strings that come on it. i did purchase a set of aquila strings at the same time i purchased the instrument and still have not put them on because the existing strings sounds great and stays in tune well. also i would really recommend this instrument. it is very nice quality and with all the items it comes with is a great price.

Watch fiddler man on YouTube. He has some great info to help. I love this violin. I do think (after researching my purchase ) that in the musical instruments market, money is an important factor. Spend to the upper end of your comfort level. It wil, hopefully, mean a higher quality instrument. Regardless, your first violin will have sentimental value, even if you invest in another.

The violin is not silent. In other words, it makes noise when you play. However, it is not an acoustic violin, which means that it is not loud enough to play without it being plugged in with cords. So, you do need cords, unless you are able to find a wireless device that connects to a PA system. You may want to look for an acoustic/electric violin.

I don't know; but, you could call a local music store that sells violins or check out DOMINANT on the web for this answer. They are VERY nice strings, though! SORRY!

It does come pre-strung, but you have to tune it, as it can't be shipped with the strings tight, and you need to become acustomed to tuning it because it does lose it's tone after a few hours playing.

My Violin was in very good shape when it came. Nothing broke when it was tuned. It is quite beautiful. I am completely new to violins so regarding sound, I think it gets better as you learn to play. I am still scratchy. When I get smoother so will the sound. When you practice, so do your ears. In time, you will probably want a better instrument. For the price, this is good to learn on. Just a note, it is black and it smells like spray paint! I am still happy with my purchase.

This is a great violin, but ANY new violin, either a cheap one or an expensive one, needs to be taken to a luthier for adjustments before you can start playing it. A luthier should be able to fix that issue. I took mine to a local luthier (who btw thought this was an excellent violin) and for $20 made several small adjustments (usually the bridge is what requires the most of them) and it has been working and sounding great since then. So my advice, find a luthier and bring it to him. If you don't have an accesible luthier near you, sometimes putting some chalk to the pegs help with the problem (I did that on my previous violin and helped to some degree). Good luck.

Yes it does. All guitars better come with the strings, It does come with the strings

Yes. When I bought mine on Amazon, it came with the banjo already strung. You just need to buy finger picks.

This dulcimer does come with strings but not a noter. I got this as a gift for my brother and he liked it very much.
