Up for sale is a genuine, beautifully broken-in Yamaha Model V-5 3/4 Student Violin Outfit. For parents or educators navigating string lessons, Yamaha is a universally recommended step up from cheap, generic internet instruments. The V-5 features a hand-carved solid spruce top and high-quality seasoned maple back and sides, finished with a hand-applied oil varnish. This gives the instrument a much warmer, more resonant, and cleaner acoustic voice than typical laminate/plywood starter violins.

Dating back to 2007 (Serial Number: 05742), the tonewoods on this specific instrument have had nearly two decades to settle and mature, resulting in an open, brilliant projection. It is the ultimate cost-saving choice for an advancing student transitioning into a 3/4 frame without resorting to pricey rental fees.

Condition & Cosmetic Disclosures

We believe in full transparency so you can bid and buy with absolute peace of mind:

• The Violin: In Good condition. It shows average, expected cosmetic playwear from an active young musician—including light varnish scuffs, small edge dings, and surface scratches. There are absolutely no structural cracks, no unglued open seams, and no neck alignment issues. The bridge stays centered, the pegs fit well, and the soundpost is structurally sound and upright.
• The Bow: Standard matching student bow. The horsehair is intact, and the tension adjustment screw tightens and loosens smoothly.
• The Hardshell Case: Included as a complete package, but please note that there is a visible crack in the outer hard shell of the case. The case still latches and serves its purpose for basic storage and shielding the violin from dust or minor bumps, but the buyer may eventually want to replace the case down the road if heavy, rugged travel is expected.

Key Technical Specifications

• Solid Premium Tonewoods: Fully hand-carved spruce top paired with a solid maple back, neck, and side ribs.
• High-Grade Ebony Touchpoints: Fingerboard, tuning pegs, and chin rest are all crafted from high-quality genuine ebony, offering excellent tactile tracking and tuning durability.
• Integrated Micro-Adjustment Tailpiece: Outfitted with a premium lightweight tailpiece featuring 4 built-in fine-tuners, making it incredibly easy for students, teachers, or parents to make precise tuning adjustments quickly.

What’s Included

• 2007 Yamaha Model V-5 3/4 Acoustic Violin
• Student Violin Bow
• Original Yamaha Hardshell Storage Case (Note: Structural crack present on shell)

Safe & Secure Orchestral Shipping

• Tension-Released Shipping Profile: Stringed instruments are highly sensitive to rapid impact and shipping shifts. To ensure the soundpost stays locked and the bridge doesn't shift, the string tension will be slightly backed down before boxing.
• Padded Transit Nesting: The violin will be padded inside the case (with extra support stabilizing the scroll and pegbox). The entire case will then be heavily wrapped in multiple layers of thick bubble wrap and nested securely inside an oversized, heavy-duty corrugated shipping box packed with premium shock-absorbent void fill.
• Shipping: Ships promptly with full tracking. Buy with total confidence!
