I bought it secondhand and used it for five years. It was my first electric violin.

This instrument has a sound box. Thus it quickly generates very unpleasant feedbacks as soon as you play with distortion. But given that it has a sound box, it produces a much warmer sound than a skeleton-type electric violin.

The manufacturing quality of the pickup is very bad. The wires move and create unwanted noise (or even signal drop-outs) due to the instrument's vibrations. If you open the small plate you'll see that the pickup wiring is very bad.

It's impossible to use this violin live on stage because it's much too unreliable.

It's a pity because it produces a warm and interesting sound...
