If you are someone who just wants to try an electric violin, or you need something to muck around on, the Crescent EV is a great option.
Cremona is an award-winning company that was founded in and is renowned for making different types of high-quality violins. We have chosen this model for its remarkable playability at a price that will certainly not break the bank. This electric violin is simply elegant. Also, this outfit is a very affordable option for novices or those who want to attempt learning how to play electric violin. An electric violin is an instrument that can produce sound electronically.
The electronic or digital signals generated by electric violins can generally produce brighter, louder sounds than its acoustic counterparts. Aside from that, the sound of an electric violin can be tweaked and enhanced. With their plug-and-play capability, this kind of violin is a good choice for a violinist who wants to play with amplified bands.
Electric violins come in different shapes and forms. Before heading out to the nearest music store, try browsing online and familiarize yourself with common electric violin styles. Our tip is to go with what best suits your taste! There are different violin tones: darker, brighter, or somewhat neutral. Also, equalization and effects are an option, which may help you get the tone that you want. For the greatest satisfaction, we suggest that you have a baseline tone that pleases you as the player.
Traditional violins are sold with different names. This is not just a way to have a nice nomenclature set for violins but rather a grouping technique. Their shapes vary from an S-form or moon-shape to a narrow trapezoid with tuning that is done from the tailpiece.
Nevertheless, since they are outfitted with a standard length, adjustable violin fittings, this type of violins can still be played like a traditional violin. Silent violins are violins that have headphone jacks that can be used for silent practice.
If you are starting on this fun adventure of electric violin playing and feel that you are making noise, silent violins are a perfect choice.
However, there may be various accessories. Acoustic-electric violins have the capability to make sound acoustically, and at the same time, can be electronically amplified.
If you think that you need a violin that features good acoustics and amplification, you probably want to get an acoustic-electric violin. After all, most acoustic electric violin reviews tell that story quite well. One other thing I'll mention on tuning with pegs. Even if the starting pitch of the string is higher than what it needs to be, don't just tune down to the pitch. Take it down below the pitch and tune up to it.
With violin or other peg tuned instruments, when you are loosening the peg to go below the pitch before tuning up to it, you'll be able to tell if the peg is trying to stick, because it is maybe in too tight. If it is too tight, then it holds, but it will tend to move in big jumps instead of going up smoothly in pitch. So I usually pull it out just slightly while tuning down below the pitch, to make sure it is moving freely enough to tune good.
Then as I bring it up to pitch, I press the peg into the pegbox a bit more, experimenting with it to figure out just how hard it needs to be pressed in to just hold well, but not be so tight that it will be hard to move later. Just how much the peg needs to be pressed into the box will change a bit with humidity and temperature, so it is one of those things you kind of learn to do by feel.
But I didn't personally find it took long to develop the "touch" or "knack" for it. If you tune up for some strings but just tune down for others, it does wierd things with the tension from string to string and what part of the instrument it is on, and it will fall out of tune easier when you're playing. I also tune every string, even if it already was in tune when I picked up the instrument.
I was told years ago that is good practice, since it somehow is supposed to regularize the string tensions that may have been affected as the instruments sat, due to changes in humidity, temperature, or slight settling of mechanical parts. My usual guitar tech told me years ago that it was a good idea, to keep the tuning more stable and also to reduce the chances of the neck warping or twisting over time. Probably not an attractive notion to beginners who are struggling with tuning, but when you get past the point where tuning pegs or machines hold any terror, you might want to consider it.
You know this is how it is supposed to taste at this stage of development. Fiddlerman said Kevin - where on the string should they measure the height from the fingerboard to the string? The measurement should be taken at the very end of the fingerboard. Thanks Kevin. That is very helpful. Just bought a Cecilio silent electric violin for virtually no money from Fiddlerman.
But read on I quite like it after making one or two minor changes. I have been playing several acoustic violins since I was 6 years and eventually got my own, a relatively expensive violin with a full, rich sound. Several years later, someone dropped my poor expensive violin and from then on nobody was able to could get the good sound back.
So the poor thing was initially neglected and then mothballed. I kept playing every now and then, but of course I got worse and worse. Nevertheless after 16 years of fiddling I felt confident enough to assess what's wrong with a cheap electric violin and make it work for an additional 50 USD. This is my take on the CEVN. The violin body was made in a hurry. At least not in the UK. The fingerboard and chin rest have scratch marks and the fingerboard has not been sanded well on one end, but I don't really care.
I believe you can get the pickup, pre-amp, and cables used in the Cecilio from ebay for less than 14 bucks including shipping from China. If you are an average skilled amateur player like me, it will take some time to get used to the horrible bow and the strings, which are equally bad. The intonation sounds more like a detonation. I believe a piece of string from a sewing kit that one for one reason or another occasionally gets for free in some Hotels would sound exactly the same.
The strings are sort of a hybrid of a highwire paired with a slackline: too high and no tension even when tuned correctly. The bridge is so thick that it can serve as a door wedge. I won't go into detail about rosin and case. All I will say is that thankfully the manufacturer spent what little money I paid on something more relevant.
On the plus side, the chinrest, fine tuners, pegs, neck, fingerboard and tail piece are useable. So I figured the materials required are initially just a set of strings. I went for D'Addario Helicore medium. While I was replacing the strings 30 USD I took the opportunity to take 2mm off the height of the bridge, which is for free, if you have sandpaper.
I also made the bridge a bit thinner. Then I took the bow and put so much tension on that it hurt looking at it It's like day and night. That makes it one of the best premium candidates on this list. The color options are abundant , and you can choose from nine pearlescent nuances. There are four fine tuners, along with rosin and a polishing cloth. The instrument comes with the Glasser SH fiberglass bow. Naturally, the most attractive feature of the violin is its dual nature. You can play it as an acoustic or electric violin, depending on the effect you wish to accomplish.
The Perfection Planetary pegs ensure quick and easy tuning and provide your instrument with stability. The carbon fiber bridge and soundpost are high-quality elements, too. Overall, this is a fantastic electric violin. The instrument looks great and delivers an exceptional performance. The carbon composite body is scratch-resistant and highly durable. This dramatically reduces the risks of open seams and cracks.
Extreme temperatures are also not an issue, and you can even play the instrument in the rain. However, some components could be more reliable. Namely, people have reported that the G-string broke shortly after they purchased the item. But fortunately, this set comes with two such strings.
What We Like. The first entry is an acoustic-electric violin produced by Tower Strings. The model offers some excellent features for its price range.
The violin has excellent materials, such as carved maple and spruce. The sports quality ebony fittings , and features a carbon construction tailpiece. Moreover, the violin has fine tuners, steel-core strings , pickup, and built-in tone and volume controls.
Considering that this is an acoustic-electric violin, you have the luxury of playing it acoustically or plugging it into your amplifier. The setup and the accessories are of higher quality than what you usually encounter with violins at this price.
The greatest benefit of this violin is its versatility. You get the best of both worlds, given that you can play it as an acoustic and an electric violin, depending on your preferences.
Lastly, the case is lightweight yet exceptionally sturdy. It includes various items, such as bow holders, music pocket, storage compartment, and carrying straps. This is another affordable entry with decent features. The manufacturer, Cecilio , sells great electric models, and the following item is a good beginner electric violin.
The body is made of hand-carved maple , whereas the pegs, chin rest, fingerboard, and tailpiece are ebony. The instrument draws its power from a 9V Alkaline battery included in the package. Product Highlights This instrument enables the players to practice without disturbing other people.
The volume control allows you to select the ambiance, whereas the line-in jack lets you practice with background tracks. As for the other components, the bow has real Mongolian horsehair. The violin comes with a one-year warranty. Overall, the instrument has a strong, sturdy feel to it. There are also several color options to choose from. Furthermore, the model is an outstanding electric violin for beginners.
The instrument is easy to play and is a great way to introduce yourself to electric violins. The main problem with the violin is the strings. You may need to stretch them out a bit or switch to higher-quality ones.
This one is also an excellent cheap electric violin. Just like the previous violin, this item contains a tailpiece with four nickel-plated fine tuners. The fingerboard, chin rest, and pegs are made of ebony, while the top is constructed of h and-carved solid spruce.
The choice for the sides and back is hand-carved solid maple. There are many similar violins to be found in the beginner to intermediate category though none quite an inexpensive.
At first glance, these two electric violins look pretty similar, in terms of look and some of the features. Design-wise, they look similar. The biggest difference is the choice of preamplifier and piezo pickup. In addition, these controls are also more responsive, giving you more sonic and practical versatility.
In addition, you also get a better package with the Bunnel Next, including a quality bow, a hard case, and a better set of headphones for practice. But this does not make the CEVN-2 a bad instrument at all. If you can afford to the cost, the EDGE is the better instrument and also the better value. With the Cecilio CEVN-2 , the manufacturer managed to keep the price at a desirable level, without sacrificing any of the essential qualities. It works well, it sounds good, and you could even do some smaller live shows with it.
