Hello Lu,I just got my violin and I am satisfied.
I already have 6 violins but it is a real violin with a real violin sound. Thank you for your excellent service to all points of view.
It is likely that I bought another violin with a deep, round, warm, not toobright or loud.
Sorry for my broken English.

you again.

Je vous
remercie de votre excellent service à tout point de vue.
Il est probable que j\'achète un autre
violon avec un son profond, rond,
chaud, pas trop brillant ni
fort.
Sorry for my anglais hésitant.

Hello Mr. Lu! I want to tell you that I am absolutely satisfied with the violin that you have sent me. When I first set my eyes upon the violin, I was stunned. The violin looked incredible. What\'s even more amazing is the sound. Every description that you gave is accurate. The violin is sweet, warm, well-balanced, and projects very well. I have tried violins that cost more than $5,000 and they don\'t play as well as Master Wang\'s violin. Master Wang\'s violins are truly affordable masterpieces. All of my expectations have been exceeded. I took a gamble and bought a violin from ;that gamble clearly paid off. I am very happy that I bought this violin. Perhaps in the future, I will buy more. One thing is for sure; I will be telling my friends about this wonderful violin.
I am curious why the violin did not come with a label. I had hoped to have the label with Master Wang\'s signature. Master Wang is a true artist. His passion for violin making is evident in his work. I ask that you send me a label with Master Wang\'s signature so I can properly label my violin. An artist such as Master Wang deserves credit where it is due. Also, the label will be valuable when Master Wang\'s reputation increases and his violins appreciate in value. Once again, please send me a label with Master Wang\'s signature on it. Thank you very much, Mr. Lu!
Tuan NguyenDear Lu,I received my viola yesterday and my luthier has put the soundpost and the tailpiece on today.I love my viola, it\'s so beautiful, perfect for me. Master Wang has made a wonderful work.I send many thanks to you and to Master Wang for all.And I want to tell you that you are so professionnal Lu, it was a real pleasure to communicate with you.I will surely buy another things to you in the future.I wish you a very good continuation in your business Lu.Best wishes from me,Sandra.Dear Mr Lu,I have sold one of Master Wang Zhiguo\'s violin (item no: 320663143298) to one of my former violin teacher today. He is very impressed with the beautiful sound of the violin. He agrees to introduce more people and students to Master Wang\'s wonderful violins. I played the IPE Master bow you sent me today and was also very impressed with it. It is comparable with some of my other bows that cost a lot more. I hope to order more of these bows in the near future.I hope to show another violin teacher at a music school here another of Mast Wang\'s violin soon. This teacher is a graduate from a music school in Shanghai and plays the gucheng as well and is currently looking for a good violin.I am honoured to have my teacher to buy a violin from me that you recommended. My best regards to you and Master Wang!Ever gratefully yours
S.THi again Mr Lu,I just want to tell you that the violin that you recommended me and I bought from you is very very good and I could not really express in words just how satisfied I am with the violin.Initially when I collected the violin from the Customs Office, I was a bit skeptical about the violin because it did not look very nice and it looked more like a poorly maintained antique violin. However, the moment I started tuning it and playing it at home, I totally fell in love with the playability and sound of the instrument.My only regret is that I did not get this type of violin earlier by Master Wang Zhiguo when I started buying violins online. I have a small collection now including a S C and an antique French violin which cost quite a lot and yet do not sound as good as Master Wang\'s violin.I look forward in purchasing more of Master Wang\'s violins to add to my collection in the near future. I also hope to perform on his violins in public whenever I have a chance and introduce his violins to some of the music schools here. Many of the music schools here sell European violins that cost many many times more and yet do not sound good. Some sell Chinese made violins but they are mostly factory made for beginners. There is a huge potential for affordable intermediate to advanced level violins here for people who prefer quality and affordability. I am not a businessman and not a professional violinist. However, I am so impressed with this violin that it will be a shame not to let more people listen and to know more about Master Wang\'s violins.I hope to keep in touch. I just could not stop e-mailing you through hotmail now just to let you know I am more than pleased with this violin. Please send my warmest regards to Master Wang for me. This violin is one of the best purchase I ever made.May you and Master Wang and both your families be well and happy. May both of you be blessed with great health and prosperity.Your friend

Dear Lu,I received the violin in good condition 2 days ago but only had time to set it up today to test it. I must say the quality of the vioin is all-round excellent, in terms of the tone, the build quality and the detailing. Your description of the instrument was accurate. The violin quality is comparable to many that are ten times more costly.Best regards,TSH
First I want to wish you a happy new year, since it\'s holiday in China.I received the violin very fast and it was perfectly packed. I bought 3 violins in China, and no other one had such a secure packaging. Thank you for the care.The violin itself is a masterpiece.
I can\'t find any defect. I only had to change the feet of the chinrest : the two big feet hurt my neck. The chinrest itself is ok and I still use it.
Another point is that for my small hand, the violin\'s neck could be a little thinner. But the thickness is only average and this isn\'t a defect.
Beyond this points, the only thing I can say is that the violin is perfect. The tone is incredibly pure and rich. It\' s really difficult to find words to describe it.
I know now why your descriptions of the violins are almost all the same : Because, all that you say about the sound is true, and the rest is beyond words....The varnish is the most beautiful violin\'s varnish I\'ve ever seen. Master Wang is absolutely a master luthier, with very fine craftmanship. I play his violin every day, and I think that the sound will get even better with time, as every good violin improves when it\'s consistently played.
The carbon bow you joined to the violin is a good carbon bow. I appreciate that you didn\'t join a brazil wood bow because I would not have use it.
I usually use a master pernambuco bow, and sometimes a carbon bow.
The case is really fine.
I\'m very confident in your ability to select violins and I could buy again from you. The only thing is that it will be hard to find a better violin than this one.
At least it would take to find one as good as this one, but different in tone and look.I will surely recommend your store.Valerie, from France.
Lu, WOW! This violin is awesome! I got it a today andtuned itup. It sounds beautiful! I have been playing a German violin for some time and this \"Wang\" makes that insrument sound as if it is muffled. I want to spread the word for you and maybe be your US contact for these fine instruments. I have already decided what I want to get next. The Joseph Guarneri del Gesu 1743 \"Paginini\'s Cannon\". I also want you to know how much I thank you for gettingWang to label it! That will be very important as the years go by. After seeing and holding and playing this violin, I realize what a fine insrument it is. There is no reason why we could not both be rich if we could get the word out about these \"Wang\" violins and cellos. Thanks and I will be talking to you soon. Respectfully,JamesHi Lu!
I must say that the cello I received is of very high quality, compared to the price. Strings are very personal, so I changed to D\'Addario Helicore C and G and Kaplan Solutions D and A. Beautiful, warmsound,very nice and even qualitybetween strings, nice varnish and appearance. I have bought 45string instrumentsfrom chinese dealers and the highest quality are your violins/cellos. Congratulations!Erik Wang
