Vangoa 4/4 Full Size Silent Electric Violin for Adult Beginners Solid Wood White

I know a bit about student violins as an ex school music teacher, and wanted one to practise on now I'm retired without disturbing my neighbours so I bought this. It was far better than I expected. The violin itself is well made and has none of the flaws you expect at this price ( bits of missing paint etc.) Everything that was provided, and there's lots, was more than adequate for the job. There was nothing that wasn't 100% satisfactory. OK, you're not getting a Strad but what you do get is: A very decent violin, a case, bow, rosin, two sets of strings, a violin to amp lead in case you need one, a good enough bridge, A 9v battery which fitted easily into the sound module at the back of the violin, a useful little booklet explaining how to set the violin up if you don't already know, and a set of heaphones which will at least do the job for a start. Everything worked fine, although I will be upgrading the strings and the headphones. If you're a beginner fitting the bridge and the strings is the dodgy bit, but rhe booklet is in good plain English and will help you. The violin sounds very good through the headphones but it actually makes just enough noise for you to practrise without, although it's quiet enought not to disturb anyone in any adjacent room. Great for kids and anyone who isn't a demanding professional player. I'm completely satisfied with my purchase.

After few weeks as an ameteur I'm very satisfied with this electric violin. It is lightweight and is less noisy than one that is wooden made. The amplifier produces minimal white noise and some parts by touch feel to have less quality but they do the job. I had to replace the shoulder rest because it broke.

Straight out of the box, it looks amazing, very nice bit of kit. It came with spare strings, two rosin packs, cables, headphones and a bunch of other bits. The Rosin was rock hard and I had to warm it up just to make it usable, but not that big of a deal. It came with a clip on tuner which was absolutely useless, not registering for the majority of the time, or registering incorrectly when it did pick up anything. I ended up using a different clip on tuner, and that worked just fine. Plugging in the battery and supplied (but very cheap feeling) headphones, it gave out a beautiful sound. This is advertised as a "silent" instrument, it is anything but... I took that to mean there would be little to no sound from the strings when not connected to an amp or headphones, but that is simply not the case... But this is not a big deal to me. There are one or two issues with the finish, some thin or even bare spots on the "sharper" edges of the body where you can see the wood through the black finish, but it's barely noticeable unless you really look very closely. It's not a top quality product, but still very nice for what it is. Could probably do with being a little cheaper, but still, I am very pleased with the instrument overall.

The body, case, bow, headphones are all good. Strings are okay. Rosin and shoulder rest are bad but easily replaceable. I noticed I kept hitting the wrong strings which I’d never done before, and realised the bridge was far too flat. Replaced bridge and problem disappeared, definitely something new learners may not realise is the issue!

This was a gift that was liked and appreciated. The case is good quality much better than either of us expected. The violin works perfectly and sounds good but not like an acoustic one. The bow is good enough for beginner level. The rosin while usable isn’t the best. As the title of this review says patience is needed. It took me 2 hours to string and tune this violin. I’d never done this before. Then after finally getting it to hold tune it was out of tune 2 days later after a couple of hours play time. This appears to be quiet normal according to the instructions and a music shop I visited. Finally after about three weeks it holds tune very well with only fine tuning adjustments needed taking about 10mins before a play session. Tips on tuning- watch some YouTube videos. Tune to approximate note then finish using the fine tuner knobs. Work from the inside out alternating side to side. And importantly ensure the bridge is installed correctly and remains perfectly straight you will need to keep adjusting the bridge during tuning. Also note the bridge doesn’t have ridges. The ridges seem to form during the tuning process and this I think is why it took so long to tune and hold tune. All in all I’m happy with this purchase and my wife is happy playing the violin again after a long break. Would I recommend this product? Yes. But you will need patience before you can play and practice.

Really wanted this to be ok for silent practice. I had low expectations at the price and knew it wasn't going to be great. Unfortunately this is just low quality and not fit for purpose. The neck snapped under the tension of tightening the strings, which is a reflection of the build quality. Looks like these are generic Chinese mass produced E-Violins that different companies add their own branding to. Save your money and spend a little more to get something that works.

Superbe qualité pour le prix. Très complet - bravo !

Excellent produit, super look. Le seul point faible trouvé, c'est le casque (type walkman 80's). Mais j'ai mon propre casque, ça ne me gène donc pas. Il y a même un jack 3.5 vers 6.35, qui m'a donné l'idée de le brancher sur un module d'effet (KP3+), et c'est bluffant. Évidemment, je ne suis pas représentatif des musiciens classiques, je commence le violon sur le tard, et j'aime plutôt les sonorités modernes. Je suis comblé.

Cuando tenso la cuerda con las clavijas,la propia clavija retrocede y el afinador "fino" se vuelve inutil. !Es imposible afiLo dicho,no se puede pedir mas por ese dinero.El violin que llegò me dio problemas con la afinacion,habia una cuerda que se resistia.Lo devolvì.Y en ese momento se puso en contacto conmigo la tienda vendedora.No me pusieron ningùn problema,el dinero estaba devuelto (en cheque regalo de Amazòn).Me pidieron un voto de confianza y acepte.Rapidamente me enviaron otro violin con instrucciones para el afinado.Y,o bien el primero estaba defectuoso (Pasa hasta en la mejores marcas) o bien yo no supe hacerlo.El caso,es que este funciona muy bien,se afina perfectamente y suena como debe.Sobre el articulo dirè que el acabado es muy bueno y bonito.La funda es de 10 y tiene de todo,hasta las 2 pilas necesarias.En cuanto a sonido,al aire no suena,ideal para ensayar sin molestar ni al que tienes a dos metros.El Pream que tiene cumple perfectamente su funciòn.Se puede grabar con el (Es para lo que lo quiero).Incluso se pueden meter efectos de guitarra como reverb,delay,chorus y hasta distor.En definitiva,que estoy muy contento con el voto de confianza y con el violin.Destacar el trato recibido,atentos y muy amables.En ningùn momento me pusieron problemas,muy al contrario.Asì da gusto!Muy buen venderor.LO RECOMIENDO!narlo!

Parfait

Ho acquistato questo prodotto perchè ho 2 figli che studiano violino (uno al liceo musicale) e vivendo in condominio, visto che spesso le ore giornaliere di studio non erano più sufficienti, i ragazzi non potevano studiare nelle ore di "riposo" Grazie a questo violino elettronico, i ragazzi possono mettersi in cuffia e studiare strumento a qualsiasi ora senza temere di disturbare gli altri condomini Attenzione !! Il violino NON è completamente silenzioso...non ho fatto una rilevazione strumentale ma diciamo che in appartamento lo si sente a un volume più o meno simile a quello di un televisore a volume medio-basso...come se una persona parlasse a voce normale Il violino è arrivato corredato di archetto, spalliera (i miei figli hanno però usato quelli che avevano già), un set intero di corde di ricambio, pece, cavetto per collegarsi a un amplificatore (non in dotazione) e cuffia Riguardo le corde, le abbiamo cambiate con corde migliori perchè avevamo letto in altre recensioni che la qualità del suono migliorava. In realtà non mi sembra di aver visto grandi cambiamenti, credo invece che molto dipenda dalla qualità dell'amplificatore e delle cuffie/casse che si usano Il violino non è in grado di produrre suono in maniera autonoma, non ha una cassa inclusa, quindi o lo si sente in cuffia o ci si deve munire di amplificatore e/o casse Io non sono un musicista (ripeto che lo usano i miei figli) però posso dire che le proporzioni e il peso sono assolutamente paragonabili ai 4/4 dei violini acustici che normalmente usano i miei figli e la struttura appare ben solida In generale, per quanto speso, il prodotto è assolutamente valido e siamo più che soddisfatti
