Hi everybody. I’m a violinist and I have a violin since 2 years and I want to change it because it sounds really bad now. I want to buy and other one. Can someone suggest to me what to buy and from where? :confused:
Thanks.:)

Hi, Amideast!

Did your violin used to sound good? If it did, then you might only need to get a new set of strings. Professional, full-time violinists generally will change their strings about once a month.

Thanks!

Hi, Clough!
Okay the problem with my violin is that the sound post is going to fall and the sound is changing! I have a good violin but I think I have to buy a new one and I'll try to fix that one.
But I need someone who can tell me what to buy and from where!
Thanks for answering my questions.

Hi again, Amideast!

Where are you located, please? It would be helpful to know that in order to help you the best.

Thanks!

eBay

There are many good ones, one question is how much can you afford to spend, And how much would yours be to rebuild, I have one that is over 400 years old, that cost , well a lot to rebuild and another about 300 years old that I did not rebuild, they said I would ruin the antique value of it, because of the brand if I rebuilt it.

There are great models out there, depending on your style of music and taste.

Okay actually I left America and I’m now in Morocco. But I missed Florida! I think I'll come back but the problem is that I need a new one here! So I don't think that you can help me!
But I found one just yesterday it's pretty good and not expensive !

I was going to give you some ideas as to where you might get one where the store might be near to where you're located.

I'm glad that you found one, though!

Thanks!
