"I'm still loving my MTII! And it's continuing to save me money! Today when I went to my violin lesson, my teacher actually asked me if she could borrow my violin for a recording that she's doing! So, pretty soon my MTII will be on a semi-professional CD. :-D  The reason I said it's still saving me money is that in exchange for letting her borrow it, she's giving me a month of free lessons, a copy of the CD and a ticket to one of her concerts. :-D  If you want, when I get the CD I'll make one of the tracks into a .mp3 for you so you can hear it.  And who knows, maybe after she plays it this week, she'll end up buying one of her own! (She's in the market for a new violin because her old violin is cracked in two places and pretty crappy in general, (not worth fixing),  hence her borrowing mine.)  Anyway, I just thought you might like to hear that she "changed her tune." (This is the teacher that was against buying a violin "over the internet," and now she's borrowing my violin.. lol.. )" - M.L.

"I am VERY impressed with my MTII (Michael Todd violin)! When I first opened up the case, I was just amazed at how beautiful it was. (Both the case and the violin!) The pictures on the website just do not do it justice! (It even smells great! LOL!)  More importantly, it sounds WONDERFUL! I can't explain the joy that comes from playing a great violin after only ever using a horrible $99 eBay violin! " - M.L. (for complete review of this violin, click HERE)

"I am VERY pleased with my [Michael Todd II] violin.  When I presented it to my instructor she praised the full sound coming without placing a lot of pressure on the bow.   The beauty of the instrument only enhances the pride I have when I show it to my friends and associates.  Please bill my credit card for the balance since  I will be keeping the instrument and accessories.  A big thank you to your sales staff.  When I picked up the violin on 11/7, I had about two weeks experience on the violin.  Although I have played cello for two years this was a different animal completely.  I was treated with the respect many companies have forgotten their customers deserve even when asking "dumb" questions.  I will have no problem recommending your establishment to anyone looking for an instrument. Thanks again for your help, understanding and encouragement." - J.L.

"So, to put it out where everyone can read it, my new Michael Todd II violin arrived yesterday, inconveniently while I was mowing the yard. Oh, the humanity! So I had to wait two hours or so before finally getting around to opening the box. Chills and suspense... What would it look like? How would it sound? Despite the wonderful experience I had emailing Todd and Erik, I was still, of course, apprehensive..." - D.K. (leaving you in suspense, click HERE  for the complete story!!)

"I received my MTII (Michael Todd) today by Airborne Express -- no problems, it was packed well. I love the violin, the craftsmanship, the set-up and the tone...Very well done!! Thank You." - G.H.
