Yamaha V 20 G Violin 4/4

Premetto che la mia opinione da non professionista è semplicemente quello che mi ha confermato mia figlia di 12 anni che ha deciso di scegliere sempre la marca Yamaha questa volta un yamaha V20 ,ottima qualità prezzo, per uno studente avanzato. Ho aspettato un po' perché ai violini nuovi serve del tempo per far uscire le sue qualità ,lei ha fatto il passaggio da 3/4 a 4/4 comunque la diferenza è notevole. Poi con un archetto giusto che mi auguro di essere fortunati ad abbinare(lei per un mese ha usato l' archetto di 3/4 al violino 4/4) ora è pronta anche per l'archetto di 4/4.Comunque ottimo acquisto,spedizione veloce ,prodotto arrivato integro senza tracce di urti molto bene incartato ad ogni parte sporgente del violino hanno provveduto contro i graffi o possibile urto. Molto soddisfatta Successivamente vi aggiornerò lo sviluppo del suono con il nuovo arco.

It was a struggle for me trying to upgrade my violin. As a student I was afraid of what violin will I get. After a few searches online, I found out that Yamaha is a good maker for violins, and student violins mainly. Getting a violin for this price, without trying it was a little bit like gambling, but Thomann offers the 30 Days money back and this made me order the violin from them.

After I got my violin, it was well packaged, and everything was safe. The violin comes without the bridge installed which is good as it is safer for shipping. Anyway, if you are a student, you should not install the bridge by yourself. Let your teacher or a violin maker install it for you.

The violin sound is getting better everyday. It lets you express your musicality easily.

Thank you Yamaha and Thomann!

TLDR:
This violin worths every cent you pay for. Very good sound and looks beautiful and great handling.

Long Version:
I was looking for the best violin for sub 2000¤ category. I have been to a few music shops and local luthiers where I tried a few violins.

Out of all of them, this Yamaha violin worked better for me...it even sounded better and handled easier than one violin that I tried (priced at the 3k range).

This violin sounds beautiful. It is a huge upgrade to my first violin and makes me to practice more just for the nice sound of it.

It is very light thanks to boxwood accessories and the oil varnish looks beautiful and shiny.

Just a side note: because of storage time...I think the dominant strings that were on the violin by factory had lost their tone...I changed the string with VISION series and it sounded even better.

The only issue is on the G string if you go any position higher than 7th it sounds a bit dull...but this might be because this is a new violin and it needs time to settle down...or maybe I lack the technique to play in that registers...but the lower positions on G string and all other positions on D, A and E string are heavenlike to my ears...

Anyway... a great instrument for the money you pay.
