The Fiddlershop Family
Why is Fiddlershop growing so fast and blowing away its competitors?
Fiddlerman himself tests and curates the violins and works directly with the maker to produce only the best. With over 40 years as a professional violinist of orchestras around the world, he knows what he's doing. We buy our violins directly from the maker - a rare business practice that lowers our cost so we can pass the savings on to you! Each Fiddlerman violin is set up in our workshop.

United StatesThis is exactly what I was hoping for as a beginner! The rosin and bow are a bonus. I have bought outfits from other shops in the past and the violins were decent and the bow and rosin were laughable, but Fiddlerman puts their heart into it! I'm using this until I get more advanced to eventually buy the Sololist Violin. You cannot go wrong with the Concert Outfit! Happy shopping and don't forget to PRACTICE! :)
United StatesI'm Gary, a former Green Beret Chief Warrant Officer. I've been a guitarist for 25 years and have written some songs that would sound good on the violin of which has inspired me to learn. I became quarantined beginning last April and bought a very cheap violin and went through 2 months of often tedious self-instruction, but finally began to play songs like Ashokan Farewell, Song From a Secret Garden, ETC. I suddenly realized that my very beginner violin was not adequate to continue so began shopping to find a violin to match the songs that I was playing. I found you online and after reading many reviews I decided to purchase the Fiddlerman Concert Violin Outfit. I was so pleased playing my assortment of songs and after receiving it just over 3 weeks ago I've been deeply emerged in learning Sad Romance and your violin was a contributing factor. I appreciate your professionalism and look forward in the far future to buying a Ming Jiang Zhu 903 from you. Respectfully, Gary
United StatesThis is the closest I've come to learning music and a violin to start with. I searched across for a begin point and glad the expedition led me here. I was worried there would be some damage over the delivery across continents, but glad the delivery was perfect. I had a hard begin, didn't even know how much rosin I needed to apply. I've picked up well and I love every bit of this violin. Definitely worth the search and the wait. Looking forward to exciting times.
United StatesI purchased the concert violin (1/4) as a birthday present for my 5 year old and we both are in love. The quality is awesome! And the sound? Beautiful. After having my son practice with a waaay inferior violin, my ears thank me and the company. Customer service was extremely prompt and super helpful. I am excited to continue to purchase from here for years to come!
United StatesI thought about this purchase for a long time before making the decision, and I am so glad that I bought this violin. I have been playing the instrument almost every day for the past month that I have had it, and I am very happy with the quality of my violin. I used to rent and play the violin when I was in school, so it has been a few years, but I believe that returning and relearning was a smoother transition (that sounds nicer) because I spent the money on a quality instrument. The experience of opening my case each time makes me quite happy. It's a beautiful violin that I enjoy caring for in a very nice case that came packed with everything I need. I would recommend Fiddlerman, in general, but also this particular instrument to anyone looking in this price range. I was thinking about either the apprentice or the concert, and I am glad I went with the concert violin outfit. It was worth spending a little bit extra, in my opinion.
