Violin & Stand (1996-

I got this set for Amy at AGPC, and I think its very cute. The violin and bow, though plastic, seem to not have had any problems yet, and the bridge on my violin seems very secure, so they may have fixed that problem. The rosin is adorable, although it doesn't come out of its wrapper. The case is cute and realistic looking, but it doesn't open very far which is disappointing because its hard to get the violin out. The black stand is adorable, it looks exactly like the stands we used for band/orchestra in high school and the little music books are so cute. The only other problem is that i find the stand a pain to put together and adjust. I give the set an A-for the case and stand problems, but over all an adorable set.
