| Violin for beginners - 4/4 size |
1. Affordable prices
2. I don't know myself will play how long - short term? long term? Buy a cheap one better!
Cons:
1. Tuning problem might exist, eg. violin peg/fine tuners
2. Some of them sound harsh, some students with sensitive ears might be unable to take it and end up losing interest in playing after a few months. And then, give up of playing violin. (Such a waste if only because of this issue)
Tips: There are different sizes of violins. Usually teenagers and adults will be using 4/4 size. For young children or primary school students, it really depends on individual. When they grow older and taller, they probably need to change a bigger size violin. Parents must take note on this o~
However, if you don't have any budget constraint, of course you can also consider to buy a higher range violin which cost thousand over ringgit and above in order to produce a better sound and no need to change your violin when you have reached intermediate or advance level.
Conclusion: Most of the students have chosen a cheaper one rather than the expensive violin. Therefore, you judge for your own needs of a violin.
