The teacher said any of the three Bellissimas would be a good choice for our son

It was wonderful to have someone who was so keen on helping us get the exact violin that would suit our son.

I was looking for an intermediate or higher violin for my son. He is 15 and in about a grade 6-7 level. His teacher has told us he "bottomed out" with his current student violin and needed to get a more advanced one. We had to get him one that will last him a long time (the last one we will buy for him anyway).

Unfortunately, we do not know enough about violins. We needed advice - from Rhiannon and Ryan's teacher. With just a few bits of information about the style of music my son likes to play and his level in violin, Rhiannon provided three suggestions for trial. Believe it or not, all three were suitable!

Before my trial with Fiddleheads I had ordered violins from Shar music and none were acceptable (by teacher's standards), but with the options from Fiddleheads, the teacher said any of the three would be a good choice for our son.

We kept the violins for over a week while he played them and once he decided on the one he liked the purchasing process couldn't have been easier (including the return of the rejected violins).

Rhiannon was great throughout the whole process, keeping in touch and offering help if we needed any. Boy I'm going to miss seeing her emails pop up now this is all done.

I thought the purchase of a violin was going to be a long, drawn out process. I should have call Rhiannon 1st, it would have been even quicker.

Bows are next, and we will be calling Rhiannon.
