3G Violin | Accelerate Your Instruments' Play-In Process | Improve Your Instruments Resonance, Balance, and Range

I had a very nice violin and bought a "nicer one". Over time I wanted to play the new one, even though they were both nice violins.Each Violin, new cost about $6000.00As time went on the older Violin would sound worse than the new one and I just assumed the newer Violin was better and I was getting used to it.I'd try to play the old violin a whole evening thinking it went dormant (asleep). But I'd go crazy because it sounded so bad, so I went back to the new Violin the next night.Finally I bought the ToneRite.First 24hrs I ran it on Low. It did nothing. The next 24hrs I put it on high.Huge difference. Ran another 24hrs and now the Violin sounds extremely close to the new Violin. Ran a 3rd 24hrs on high and no difference.This would have taken a LOT of playing to wake it up. The ToneRite does it for you. It won't make a bad violin sound good. It will only wake up a Violin that you are too impatient to Play in yourself.Put a new set of strings on, and they will be mostly broken in, the next morning.A bit over priced for what it really is, but it does work.My teacher works at a Violin shop and she said they have a secret "ToneRite" closet keeping all the Violins ready to demo. That is what convinced me to try it.

It works really well, makes a huge difference in my viola, not nearly as much on my violin. I went ahead and ordered a violin tonerite, was surprised to find it looks exactly the same as the viola one, and makes the same exact pitch on my instrument, yet it is a lot cheaper. I did not question the science since the viola one plays a deep B, almost a C, but the violin one does too, what's up with that??

I does not work at all on fine old instruments

Was a bit sketchy at first.. after the first try, leaving it on the violin for 4-5 days straight, my violin sounded bright, vibrant, and clean!! A must have!!!

have 8 violins,fiddles, so i figured i would try this device to keep them all played in and also to play them in, it does work ,but it is not going to turn a bad violin into a good one, have read other reviews where people go on about the diff in sound before and after, the tone does not change, just makes more mellow.if only had 1 violin would not spend the money.

This is a very good product. If you can't practice your fiddle every day and it stays quiet for days at a time, or it remains stored for a time, this product keeps the wood "sweet" with constant silent vibrations. It doesn't claim to make a mediocre instrument sound like an excellent one, but it will keep any violin sounding as good as it can. Because it's tonal, you should make sure your instrument is in tune before you hook it up and check the tuning from time to time. Recommended.

It obviously won't develop the tone, but increases the response. I left a new violin for 3-4 weeks on it, and wow, notable improvement in response!

Yes, it works well on carbon fiber instruments! I have a new carbon fiber violin and I was skeptical that the ToneRite would be effective, though I have been very satisfied with the results on my mandolins which are wood. I hooked it up for 6 solid days and the tone is much improved--sweeter and more even. Highly recommended.
