Description

The Stentor Student II is the UK's leading beginner violin, individually set up and prepared for play in our workshop.

Handmade from solid tonewoods with an ebony fingerboard & ebony or rosewood pegs, these instruments are guaranteed 'ready to play' and offer the enthusiastic beginner a proper violin at a realistic price and can be used with confidence to at least Grade 5 AB level.

Outfit consists of instrument fully prepared and ready to play. Strong wooden bow with ebony frog and natural horsehair. Block of rosin. Shaped, lightweight case with full music pocket, shoulder rest pouch and rucksack straps.

To upgrade your outfit with synthetic strings, select the Astrea upgrade above . This upgrade will improve tone and the strings will feel slightly softer under the fingers when playing, perfect for beginners and improvers.

If you would like a specific set of strings to be fitted then please call or email and we will be happy to advise.


This instrument benefits from a gold level setup.

This means that the instrument is worked on & improved by the luthier in our workshop before despatch. We adjust the bridge & nut for correct height, curvature & string spacing. Tailpiece and pegs are adjusted for smooth operation. In the case of outfits, the bow is rosined and checked for smooth adjustment.


All instruments benefit from our 30 day return period.


As all our instruments are individually prepared for play please allow 3-5 business days for despatch from the date of your order.


Price includes shipping to UK Mainland only. (Excludes Highlands and remote areas). Surcharges apply for other destinations and will be shown at checkout prior to payment.

Great sounding fiddle for the price
11 out of 11 found the following review helpful

Pros: good price everything included, even rosin dominant strings fitted very speedy dispatch, well packaged arrived ready to play instructions included re dominant strings

Cons: no cons!

Other: For the price this is a great little violin. My daughter is just grade 2, but this is her 3rd violin due to growth. Her second was also a Stentor II (though 1/2 size) and she loved it, but the upgraded strings give a much richer sound, definitely worth the upgrade. The bow was even rosined ready for use. Slight tuning was required when it arrived, but a letter was included which explained this due to the new strings. The Stentor case is tough enough to withstand the multiple trips to school and orchestra, and has put up with many bumps and foul weather on the way! The String Zone's Andrew was very helpful on the phone with safe speedy dispatch.

Fantastic student violin

Pros: Gift for my husband after he did a lot of research into which violin was good for beginners. He decided on this one so I surprised him and so far he is delighted. Very well made, excellent set up by the string zone. Ready to play.

Cons: None

Other: Highly recommended for a beginner.

It's a value for money

Pros: Good quality of sound, nice feel of the fingerboard.

Cons: For adults like me a 4/4 size is ok.
