Does the violin come set up?

No, you have to insert the bridge and the strings. It was pretty easy, except tuning the violin afterwards was quite difficult since I didn't have anything to tune it to.

Teacher had to put bridge on, tune, and tighten the strings. So no it's not exactly ready to go but I have had stings replaced/ tuning at local music store for cheap so think they could set it up also. We are having issue with strings loosening but told the cold weather can cause this.

Not the bridge. You have to place the bridge in the correct position but the strings are already set up.

Yes, but I returned it and bought another one at Fiddleheads which my daughter's violin teacher recommended: http://www.facebook.com/FiddleheadsViolinSchool?ref=hl. For almost the same price, the introductory student violin has a better quality.

The violin I ordered did come with a case. However, I cannot say that every seller will provide one

Yes, strings, tuner and case. You'll be ready to play right out of the box!

Good question! I took the violin into an instrumental music shop, as the enclosed instructions to set up bridge weren't helpful. not being an expert I didn't want to break anything! Hope this helped.

Yes. I took it to a violin shop to have it tuned and evaluated. Great tone, easy to play. Excellent quality for the price.

Hello Nick. Personally, I think so but I am not a professional violinist I actually play the sax and wanted to fiddle around with the violin. It works for me... I hope this helps... :)

yes, its comes "set up" in a cardboard box and all you have to do is tune it before you can start playing it. or you can play it untuned, whichever you prefer

No, everything comes set up for you, even the strings. The only thing you wouldn't consider "set up" is the guitar tuning. You can use your electronic tuner they provide with the guitar and tune it yourself. E, A, D, G, B E, from lowest to highest.

Its great for beginners! I purchased it a few months ago. I got new strings for it though and the sound improved immensely. On youtube "the online piano tutor"(she does violin too) has a really good review on it. :-)

Mine did... it came with the box shown in the picture. Very nice... slap a bow on it, and you're good to go :)

The strings come attached. In fact, as soon as my violin came in, I took it to my local music store (who strung my acoustic violin) to have him check it out to see if the violin and strings are of good quality. He thought is was decent quality. I couldn't be happier with it, especially for the price. When you first get it, you will have to re-tune the strings every 10 minutes or so while you are playing, but after about a week of re-tuning (and it does need tuning less frequently with time) you are good to go. It doesn't hold a tune as well as my acoustic...I tune it before I begin playing usually, but it does hold well and the sound is fantastic. You can play it through an amp or into headphones and I think the sound quality is awesome. Hope this helps. :)

Yes it does. We haven't had any technical difficulties with ours at all. It's been a good piece of equipment. It has it's own music that come with the unit. There are several ways to customize --but we haven't done that.

Yes it does, something else you may not know the bridge does not come assembled on instrument for obvious reasons. I was not aware of this thought you might like to know. I had my teacher place it for me to get the best positioning.

Mine came ready to play with strings installed. Not sure what other setup can be done.

Yes, but my daughter's music teacher had to tighten it up a bit as I know nothing about violins.

Yes, a case comes with it......I've never heard of a situation where the instrument would come without a case.
