   There are a lot of good violin companies out there, but i don’t know what size you want or but if you can find a Paige’s Music or a Sam Ash in your area there are some good companies, i’ll list some from Sam Ash that you could check out. If not you can go to the company website

   Cremona
   Yamaha
   Hermet Schartel
   Carlo Robelli
   Glaesel
   Joachim Prelude
   Eastman Strings

   Good Luck on finding a violin you like, make sure you try a few out though to find one that fits you…violin is a great instrument that is challenging but if you work hard you’ll definitely enjoy it

   A lot of people like the GEWA’s (gay’-was), which is an "outfit" (instrument, case, bow, rosin) and has decent trade-in value:

   Just rent one from your local music store. They usually don’t cost that much to rent (I’ve been renting my viola for a couple years).
