I have owned my cricket for a few weeks now and thought I would offer up a small review. I am interesting in fiddle tunes, bluegrass, old time, etc and ideally I want to end up an older fiddle. I was drawn to the unique design, the fact that it is american made, and how approachable it is coming from the world of guitars/ukuleles. I thought I could learn on the Cricket, then get a fiddle down the line and keep the cricket as a travel/electric violin. I love the tone of this instrument. It feels great in the hand, and the design of the chin rest and shoulder rest are fantastic. I am particularly impressed with the injection molded composite fingerboard, it doesn't have me missing ebony for a second and makes me feel better knowing how rare black ebony has become. I couldn't recommend this violin more. I would easily take it over any import that I have tried to date to learn on. Now I am eyeing the travel tube for taking it backpacking...
