Plug In & Play With the McNeela Electric Violin volume is never an issue – in either direction! You can amplify your electric violin by simply plugging into a speaker. Alternatively, if you really want to learn to play the violin, but you’re worried about noise complaints, you can buy an electric violin and use headphones to practice silently. Your neighbours will thank you! Electric violins are much quieter than a muted acoustic violin, producing little to no sound. Many acoustic players with no intention of ever performing on an electric violin will still invest one as a useful practice aid. Being able to practice fingering, difficult musical passages or bowing without waking sleeping babies or neighbours is an invaluable advantage.  Playing Made Easy Did you know that it’s easier to produce a good sound on an electric violin? They typically require less heavy bowing as the strings react in a different way to those on an acoustic violin. You can also tweak the sounds on an electric violin using EQ dials.
It’s important to remember however that if you intend to keep up your acoustic playing, you should practice on both instruments to maintain good technique. Your bowing technique can suffer if you don’t return to your acoustic instrument occasionally to practice. Electrifying Audio If you want to experiment with new exciting sounds, explore new genres and have fun with loop pedals and different effects, then the electric violin is definitely the right choice for you. Electric violins offer huge scope for experimentation, offering a range of creative features. You can use them with loop pedals and other special effects, dousing them in reverb or turning up the distortion to really rock out. They're perfect for any dance, electronica, pop or rock enthusiasts out there - though of course you can still use them to play Traditional Irish folk or Classical music.  Shoulder Rest for Ultimate Comfort One often overlooked but crucial accessory for violinists is a shoulder rest, and we’ve included a wooden-carved rest with your Premium Electric Violin at no extra cost. This ensures proper posture and relieves tension in the neck and shoulders—even during long practice sessions. Its ergonomic design provides superior stability and support, helping you focus on technique and truly enjoy your music. You'll spend more time improving and less time fighting discomfort.

I purchased the electric violin to give me another option,like having a variety of tools. I’m only a beginner and music is a whole new language so a variety of instruments can only make it more engaging and enjoyable. McNeela violin is nice to play with or without the amp. The price even with delivery to Australia is competitive with anything available locally. However the shoulder rest supplied doesn’t suit me so I’m having to use the standard type.

I received my McNeela Electric Violin today just 10 days after placing my order. The instrument is amazing for the price, high quality, great sound and ready to play! I was pleasantly surprised to see that along with the violin, McNeela included a quality case, bow, amp cord, headphones and 2 cleaning cloths. A complete package and great service! Thank you!

I am delighted with the quality of this instrument straight from the case. I have resumed playing after many tears to maintain flexibility in aging joints and to reduce stress on my wife’s ears. Reducing the bridge height has improved string height above the fingerboard and am satisfied by the resulting ease to fingering. I have found that the instrument is loud enough without headphones or amplification and have still to experiment with amplification.

Thank you for my lovely red electric violin. My teacher was similarly impressed and helped me set it up in preparation for travelling. It is now a loved member of my family. I look forward to many enjoyable hours practising without the police being called on my by neighbours.

This appears to be a wonderful instrument...however, not being available in a 'left=handed' version leaves me out! Perhaps in the future.

My new McNeela Premium Electric Violin is an amazing find!!! It lives up to all the promises made in the McNeela website description. I got it primarily because it was touted to be very quiet when played unplugged for practicing, and it is very quiet, no mute required. Once the strings stretched and I started playing it daily, the violin easily stays in tune with only a slight adjustment using the fine-tuners is needed due to atmospheric changes. The red finish is beautiful, it feels balanced, and is very lightweight. I carved the bridge down a bit to lower the strings for a lower-action and I absolutely love playing this violin. My Bon Musica shoulder rest fits onto the unique plastic bouts perfectly, even though the violin comes with a wooden-carved rest. The case is very high-quality and it comes with everything needed to plug in(rosin/bow, cables/headphones) and play electrified. If you are thinking of buying one of these, just hit the button and put it in your cart, it's a real gem at a low-dollar price-point!
