    I've found my forever violin at Fiddleheads

For my nephew

I was so happy about [my purchase], as it is for my godson's birthday. He is studying music at college in Montreal, and I want to support him in his dream.

The funny thing is that his name is Emil, but his nickname is "Moose" (from Charlie Parker's "Moose the Mooche")... so I thought "Panache" (which also means "a moose's antlers" in French) was quite the fit.

Christmas gift for our family

I placed an order for a fiddle for my daughter (21 years old)... we are looking forward to Christmas morning as it is a gift.

Thanks for your help last winter, I am really enjoying learning to play & lessons are often the highlight of my week :)

Violin wise, I am working the the 1st Suzuki book, as well as French folk song, rosin the bow, a bunch in the learn to fiddle book, edelweiss & now a few Christmas tunes... so much to learn yet, but I am happy with my progress :)

So excited to gift my daughter this instrument! I have twin girls - the other is getting a guitar. Need to keep doing joyful things in these strange [Covid] times.

All the best, your new website is lovely.

Lovely last-minute gift arrrived fast!

Its lovely and I’m sure she’ll be thrilled with it. Thanks again for your help Rhiannon!

I am blown away and 110% satisfied with everything

Hello, my name is Shunpei and I received this beautiful violin, your setup VN-907, from my wife, Amanda, for Christmas.

I am in love with the 907! Beautiful, aesthetic, and the rich, deep tones - the way it rings with each stroke from the bow is just stunning.

It is my partner, my second wife if you will, and I am looking forward to growing in my violin/life journey together.

I will cherish her forever. Thank you so much.

[UPDATE: 18 months later] This violin has been a blessing. I love how the sounds just pops out at you.

It seems to have a slightly "richer" tone (although subtle) compared to other violins out there. I'm just as happy with it still as I was when I first got it. : )

[REVIEW: Facebook, 5 stars] Rhiannon is above and beyond. I couldn't have made a better choice in purchasing my first high quality violin here, the Ming Jiang Zhu. I am blown away and 110% satisfied with everything. From the affordable upgrades, the quick and thorough communication through e-mail and even going as far as replacing the bow. There is no doubt in my mind Rhiannon truly cares about her customers. Thank you for your excellent customer support, patience and wonderful contribution of a store for the world. I can tell that you not only have an amazing violin business, but have a big heart and phenomenal outlook towards life in general. I speculate that this must be one of the great foundations to your success in life and business! For those looking to invest big time in a violin but worried things won't go smoothly, seriously give this place a shot! You can rest easy with Fiddleheads.

Fiddleheads picked and setup the violin perfectly for my wife

I purchased the violin as a "cumulative belated Christmas present" for the last few years for my wife.

The first thing she noticed with the violin was how loud it sounded/projected when played.

She also noticed that it vibrated as she talked (into the f-holes) when she was looking at the label. It is well made/setup and aesthetically pleasing.

She is very pleased with both the violin and the deluxe case. It fits in the case nicely. I'll likely be buying her a new second bow for her birthday this summer.

The whole family is learning to play thanks to your wonderful products

Well, we are enjoying our daughter learning the violin so much that both of us (Mom and Dad) are getting violins for Christmas.

Thank you so much for your wonderful products.

Can't wait to order the deluxe outfits in the future when we are doing more than squeaking and squawking. Our 6 year old daughter is already making beautiful music and we will hopefully soon.

Thanks again. Maybe one day we will visit!

Easy to get Christmas wish

Thanks! Very excited to receive the violin and get it in the hands of our little 4 year old for the holidays.

He has been asking for a violin for the past year and when I came across your site it was a no-brainer. :)

Noticeable difference to my tone and far more comfortable to play

Thank you so much for your information on bows, I sent it on with my Secret Santa list, and for Christmas I received a wonderfyl Voxy Vogue bow, which has already astonished me with its beautiful sound, as well as the ease of playing it provides.

I started playing violin a year ago, and bought an inexpensive bow. My teacher remarked a few months in that I would need to get a better bow as I went on, but I brushed the idea off, figuring it wouldn't make a noticeable difference.

I was amazed that after playing just a few notes with my new bow, I could feel the difference in my arm and hand, and my family noticed the change in tone immediately.

Thank you for your great service and help.

I will definitely come to Fiddleheads in the future!

Wonderful Christmas time trial with a violin my daughter loves

. We enjoyed having the violins over Christmas, and Lauren took a real shine to the Dimitrov.

We played quite a few violins, and she is still loving this one.

Lauren was so happy when I told her we were going to purchase it. She is sounding really good!

Rhiannon was great to deal with and I would not hesitate to recommend her shop to others! She sent a free violin pin and Lauren loved it.

Violin arrived the day before Christmas!

The violin arrived in excellent shape - and just before the big day (Christmas). Thank you.

December 26, 2011

We know where we will continue to buy violins for our family

Thanks for your quick and kind response ! Yes, Junien-Eaden, 4 years old, loves his violin!

He's not yet willing to let us help him playing it though...he wants to do it all by himself, which is OK for now. Our daughters playing the violin already know where to get their next violine from...

May your lovely business prosper and your family as well!

The violins at a different store here didn't look nearly as pretty as yours

Thank you so much for the beautiful violin! We believe we made a good choice for our 4 year old.

Personalized treatment

The pins arrived in time for Santa to get them into the girls' stockings. Thanks for the fast replies and service. Excellent job once again.

I know you like to give 110% to each of your customers. I suspect all your customers receive the same personalized treatment as I do. They are indeed as lucky as I am to have found your shop!!

Thanks once again for all the great service Rhiannon.

Excellent customer service

Everything ordered has been received, so there is no need for any further action on your part.

Please accept my deepest apologies. I carefully rechecked the exterior brown paper packaging and you were correct that the IMT Metronome Tuner

Because it was wrapped in the same exterior brown paper, it was well camouflaged against the main package, particularly because it is so thin.

By the way - my compliments on your website and your excellent customer service. We'll have everything "tuned" in time for Christmas.

Here's wishing a Merry Christmas to you and your family!

December 23, 2011

I felt safe shopping here- Santa and I both appreciate it very much!

Thank you very much Rhiannon! You never know when ordering online these days, I was a little worried. Your personal service is greatly appreciated!

The violin is #1 on her list to Santa, so probably not much of a surprise... but I will do my best to capture the moment! :)

This [is] my daughter's violin first violin, and hopefully with any luck perhaps I'll be ordering another one from you when she outgrows this one!

Can't wait to see her face on Christmas! :) Happy holidays!

[UPDATE: Christmas Day 2 weeks later] Merry Christmas! As promised - here's a couple of photos of the newly opened violin from Santa. You were right - she recognized the shape immediately and was a little sneaky about it, I wasn't quick enough to get the initial moment of excitement on camera - but it was definitely a big hit!

Thanks again for all of your help getting this violin on time - Santa and I both appreciate it very much! Looking forward to doing business with you again :)
