Hidersine Vivente Reviews
'It's the best starter violin. The quality of the product is really good.’ - Sarah
‘I’ve only just begun learning the violin and love this violin. Even the tutor liked it and was fab to hear its potential from her.’ - Orna O  
Top Quality at an Affordable Price
The Hidersine Vivente Violin won the MIA Award for 'Best Stringed Instrument' 2015.
So you're looking for a quality student violin for sale at an accessible price, this is the violin for you.
Hidersine Vivente instruments feature a solid Spruce top, and solid Maple ribs and backs too. These solid tonewood sections enhance the instrument’s natural tone, creating a warm, sweet tone. 
Eye Catching Finish
The solid Maple body is further enhanced by a ‘graphic flame’ finish - a special finishing technique which gives the appearance of top quality flamed maple, at a fraction of the cost. So your Vivente violin has the appearance of a much more exclusive instrument.
Quality Tone
The Hidersine Vivente Violin produces a tone that will continually improve as you play your new instrument. As the wood ages, and the solid tonewood relaxes, your violin will resonate even more naturally and the sound will improve further.

Built to Last
The Hidersine Vivente Violin has been built with durability in mind, making it a reliable long lasting investment.
It benefits from an ebony fingerboard and pegs. This prized hardwood is the top material of choice due to its durability. Ebony does not wear out from playing, making it sure to last. It’s also smooth on the fingers, which makes the playing experience more pleasant all round.

Choosing The Right Size
The Hidersine Vivente comes in four different sizes: 1/4, 1/2, 3/4 and Full size (4/4)
Most adults and children over the age of twelve play with a full size (4/4) violin. Smaller sizes are generally used by children who can’t yet stretch down the fingerboard.
It’s important to note that it’s far better for a child to stay on a smaller instrument for a longer period of time than to buy a bigger violin and wait for them to grow into it. Playing too large an instrument can lead to discomfort and potential injuries. Buying the correct size violin will help you to avoid this situation.
If you need help to determine which size violin is right for you, then check out my handy Violin Sizing Guide. It will show you the important measurements you need to know to choose the right size violin or fiddle for you.

Recently acquired a 3/4 size violin, which produces a very nice sound. My nephew is enjoying it and now the other two want one in their size 4/4 and 1/2.

Hidersine Fiddle This is a fine ‘starter’ fiddle, some day I’ll compose a tune ‘Paddy’s return’ ! Recently my daughter took an interest and she’s learning online with my old heirloom, made by the late great Dick Stanley of East Galway / Tipperary in 1969. (Gerry (Fiddle) O’Connor did a lovely restoration. Apologies for the digression, the Hidersine arrived promptly with a grand case, bow and rosin, and plays very well, so we pick up where I left off 20 years ago. Excellent service, thank you, from McNeela. Paddy Wilkinson.

LOVE our purchase! We are so delighted with the violin, and can't wait for Christmas morning. My son has been waiting patiently for it to arrive. We had planned a trip to Ireland this summer from the states, and couldn't visit due to the pandemic. Our sixteen year old son loves traditional Irish music above all else, having been inspired by a band called Lunasa that toured in our area. I know he's eager to open this gift, and it's the first time he hasn't asked for any electronics for Christmas. Now, to find some good starter lessons and maybe a community to play with! Thank you so very much for the fast shipping that helped us give the gift of music to our quarantined teenager! If I could give you ten stars, I would. By the way, your blog is awesome. Thank you for sharing live music with us here and teaching us so much about traditional music and the instruments you craft. It is truly inspiring and we hope to visit when the world is right again!
