I had purchased an OB1 violin for my daughter in hopes she would learn to play again. She hasn't picked up a violin since high school, 35 years ago. I came down to Florida to help her with her house and decided to get a violin to play along side her. I called fiddlershop to buy the OB1 like she has. Michael suggested I buy the Concert so I reached a little deeper into my pocket and purchased the Concert violin. This violin is all I was told and more. This violin sounds beautiful, looks beautiful and is perfectly set up. The carbon fiber bow has great balance and is a pleasure to use. The I was leery of the tailpiece with the built in tuners until I saw it. The old built in tuners were terrible and hung out in front of the tailpiece. This is perfect with the strings all having the correct length from the bridge to the tailpiece. The strings are fantastic. No buzzing and the G string sounds beautiful as do all the strings. The pegs are smooth as glass and stay where you put them. The finger board has the proper belly and string height is great. The only negative is, now I will need to buy my daughter one. Thank you Michael.
