Great value, minor setup needed

Overall a fantastic viola for the price. The wood quality feels solid. I did take it to a local luthier to adjust the bridge and soundpost, which improved the playability significantly. Highly recommend for students.

Beautiful sound for a beginner instrument

I bought this for my daughter who is just starting lessons. The tiger-stripe finish is stunning in person, and the tone is warm and resonant. It came well-packaged and ready to play out of the box.

Good look, average bow

The viola itself is lovely with great aesthetics and decent sound. However, the included bow is quite basic and feels lightweight. I ended up buying a separate carbon fiber bow which made a huge difference.

Perfect starter viola

My son has been playing this for six months now. It holds its tune well and the case is sturdy enough for school transport. The handcrafted details really make it feel special compared to factory models.

Solid construction

Very impressed with the build quality. The flamed maple back is genuine and looks premium. The only reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is that the strings were a bit stiff initially, but they broke in after a week of playing.

Exceeded expectations

As an adult learner returning to the viola, I didn't want to spend a fortune but needed something better than a rental. The MV68 has a rich, dark tone that projects well in our community orchestra rehearsals.
