That's a bargain haha.

Oh if only it were to be that cheap..

My bow cost 200 freaking dollars so I treat it like a baby

their bows are probably even more expensive than that... idk if I'm just a "idgaf" guy about the things i bought for myself or something but I bought a cheap e guitar for 150€ (that's the most money I've ever spent on luxury stuff...I don't have a lot of money) and I'm obviously not throwing it around like a weird m o n k e but if i bonk it against my desk or chair and there's a new dent in it I don't really care because...well even tho it's a lot of money for me...this is the lowest end of a playable electric guitar. Now. If this guitar would be 15,000€ (I doubt their bows are THAT much but this is for demonstration as well for a different instrument lol) I'd honestly stand in the middle of my room, away from any kind of bonk-able surface that could dent my guitar and I'd be scared to even scratch the pickguard by accident, even tho...it's there to catch scratches that would otherwhise scratch the actual finish of the guitar

so some bows be costing more than some violins

Buying from a reputable dealer (ie. a real music store or strings shop) is important. When my son started playing, I got him an $80 1/2 size violin (case/bow/rosin included). Granted, this was 12 years ago, but we bought it from the music shop in our small town. They measured my son to order the correct size because the 'orchestra' teacher wanted my son to get a full sized violin so it would be louder. There are many stories about that 'orchestra' and that teacher, but that was an awesome first violin. 12 years later and my son in minoring in music/violin performance, has a composite bow (he picked out) that plays the equivalent to a $1000 wood bow and was gifted a nice violin from a friend who used to be an excellent player through her 20s but sold her $5000 violin because she needed the money. She bought a 'cheap' $400 violin 30 years ago because she felt bad not owning a violin but couldn't play it because the sound quality was so much worse. That 'cheap' violin got him to all-state orchestra in high school and a performing arts scholarship in college.

@Alexander Supertramp It's true that a better violin is better, I mean a Stradivarius is way better than my baby (sorry my precious but you're still the best in my heart). But it's also true that an "average" violin can sound way better depending on who plays it.

@@user-mh7ws5zg1j in all honesty man as a complete beginner it will be fine, you can practice technique and get a feel for holding the instrument and bow, and the tone isn’t good but at least you can get sound out of it. Just enjoy it for what it is, if your family can’t afford a good violin then you can take music class through school and play violin, you will get a loan violin that you can keep and play. Point is if you really want to play violin and love the instrument you will make use of this violin.

Sounds like something my family would do.

bridges are not supposed to be glued down. it relies on the tension of the strings, placement, and angle. dont recommend gluing it down... you should take it to a local luthier.

@@rangabusi So true

Violin making is incredibly difficult, and there are loads of factors that come into pricing. It also takes years to make them, I see it as a pretty equal price match, but it still really sucks that thry arent widely available for cheap. Ik there are some carbon violins out there though, there are a lot of luthiers trying to figure out how to produce a carbon violin with an authentic sound so people can afford one that's cheap and durable!

Right? A professional guitarist could EASILY make a professional sound on a £300 squire or epiphone.

I'm a guitarist as well, but guitar and violin are built different. Reason even the technique in making violin took years to learn and even a good luthier wouldn't even be able to make violin as close to what it was in the past, such as Stradivarius, etc. For a classical guitar a basic mass produced Yamaha would work well and sounds good, I started with a $80 Yamaha Guitar as a starter, which for a violin the same price probably would not be as satisfactory. Each piece in the violin, are supposed to be handmade and really made to detail. A mass produced violin won't sound the same, reason why their price is soooo high.

Sometimes your just paying for the name

Yeah, saving up for a 1k dollar bass is a lot for me, I'd hate to be saving up for a violin ( I don't think being 13 and not having a real job helps but....)

To be fair. Watercolor is more about skill than the material. I've seen people make good art with their coffee or blood lmao. Of course, preservations is where it gets expensive. More expensive materials just last longer. Value also rise up with expensive materials. This is a different though. Can't get good with a cheap violin if it's unplayable.

I really want to learn, but i dont think i could go over $150. Like, could you still learn on a 100-150$ violin from amazon?

Anjali a violin that cheap might have problems that will affect your playing, or anyone’s for that matter simply because they might not be built right. The best thing you can do would be to go to the nearest music store and see the cheapest violins that they have and confirm that they’re not total garbage, but that might not be possible right now for obvious reasons. I don’t mean to discourage you, but it would suck if someone stopped playing because their instrument was crap.
