Your recommendation was perfect

I am happy to receive your email. I heard from my father that he had been talking to you at some length for the past few weeks, and was ecstatic when he informed me that he had purchased a wonderful 909 violin picked and set up by you!

Though my violin teacher is a little doubtful as I haven't played the instrument myself, I have heard what my father had to say about it, and receiving this email from you has only increased my certainty that this will be an amazing violin. I cannot wait for the violin to come home. It will probably be my reason to meet my father at the airport!

[UPDATE: 2 weeks later] My violin arrived home safely today (so did my father) and I have already fallen in love with it. I had been waiting anxiously all day for it, but school just seemed to drag on forever!

Anyway, back to the violin... The tone of the violin is amazing, especially compared to my previous instrument, which was a beginner violin that I bought locally.

I have only played the violin for a little bit today, but as I said, I am already falling in love with it.

It is so easy to produce a smooth sound from, and it has great acoustics. One thing I noticed is that I cannot tell the difference between playing an open string or playing with a fourth finger!

For years I have avoided playing open strings because the sound is so different than playing with fingers pressed down, but all my fear of that left me with the 909.

My father is also very pleased with the violin, though I am sure he will probably tell you himself eventually. I will try to remember to update you once my violin is more settled in and I have adjusted to it. Fingers crossed that I can rise to be as good as the violin needs me to be!

Thank you so much, your recommendation was perfect.

[UPDATE: 1 month later]
I still love the violin to bits. I have finally adjusted to playing it instead of my previous violin and it sounds wonderful!

I went back to play my previous violin the other day and... well, I have gotten too used to the better sound and feeling of my new one!

I will be sure to send in more reviews as the violin matures, and maybe try and get a good photo of me playing it.
