1set Violin Ebony Parts Tailpiece Endpin 4 Pegs Chinrest for 4/4 Violin Parts

Almost good enough for my needs but the chinrest did not match the set and came with no mounting bracket. The package came with (as sold by D Z Strad):- 5 pegs (wihtout holes)- tailpiece with tail cord and the end button (tail plug)- 1 fine tuner- chinrest (style doesn't match) WITHOUT a mounting bracketMy experience:I was refurbishing an old and neglected violin. I needed new pegs, tail piece and was looking to replace the chinrest as well.PegsThe pegs work just fine with the existing peg box holes. I used a pencil (graphite) to coat the bottom two because they were pretty tight, but I think this was just an issue with the violin more than the pegs. The pegs seemed pretty well made and consistently shaped. I had to spend some time drilling holes on them for the strings, which in my case wasn't a big deal since I happened to have a convenient clamp and an appropriate drill bit. I guess this is better if you do have the tools since you get to place the string hole exactly right, but it seems to me that pre-drilled would work fine as well for most needs.Tail partsThe end button (tail plug) was a bit too tight. I still had the old one that came with the violin, so I decided to keep the old one. Perhaps I would have needed to sand it just a hint or perhaps a graphite coat would have done the trick. I didn't fiddle with it enough to find out, but it was definitely workable.The tailpiece seems fine. I wasn't expecting that the kit would have a fine tuner, and this instrument is for a student and I wanted to provide all 4 fine tuners, so I ordered a set of fine tuners separately. The single fine tuner that came with the set matched the other set of 4: it's black with a golden screw top. Looks pretty good. I saved that one and installed my set of tuners without issue.The tail gut cord is fine so far. It takes a while for it to get the right shape and I suspect until it settles in place it is messing with my tuning - but I'm also on new strings so I'm counting on several days of daily retuning until the instrument settles overall.ChinrestOn this one I have to complain. The chinrest was made out of a noticeably different wood and finish. I'm not a stickler for woods (and the chinrest doesn't have to be too fancy,) but the look and finish should match. The product picture showed a matching chinrest, but the one I got is a ligher brown with distinct wood patterns. It simply doesn't match the set. Even worse, relying on this kit alone I would have no way to mount it, as it didn't come with a bracket (nor bracket holes for that matter.) In my case I still had the old chinrest and bracket. The old bracket was missing the touch pads that protect the violin, and the old chinrest was broken off at the connection with the bracket. For now I glued the old chinrest and made wood pads for the old bracket, and thus the violin is playable. But I'm still in the market for a new bracket, and possibly a new chinrest as well to match the set.VerdictI would only order again for the pegs and tail parts, but I would probably look for other options.

Arrived early and in good condition. Nice ebony wood as described however I did not realize that the chin rest and the pegs need to be drilled before they can be installed. When I e-mail the seller regarding this issue they were very friendly and helpful.
