The Sun workshop in Beijing makes consistently great instruments. The workmanship is very clean and the materials are top notch. Fingerboards for example are nice and black and every detal is more what I would expect from a European workshop.

The Sinfonica is a very nice step-up instrument. The varnish is particularly nice in addition to the well-flamed maple and well-seasoned sprice top. These instruments will be set up to my professional standards with Dominant or comparable strings of your choice. This instrument comes with an oblong case, and pernambuco bow with nickel mounting , abalone eye, ebony frog and horse hair. A very nice outfit at a great price!
