Basic Student Violins

The term "Basic Student" can mean many things when it comes to Violins. Some people will call a cheap no name violin a Basic Student model. Other companies with give this title to simply their least expensive violin. We use this term to denote what we feel is the absolutely best quality, low cost violins available.

You won't find your typical eBay type of violin in our shop because many times, those violins are of a sub-par quality. They use the wrong woods, are setup incorrectly, and commonly have terrible strings ... not to mention a bow that is typically worthless right out the box!

In our shop, every violin goes through a complete professional setup (typically this would cost $60 to have done on a violin that is not setup properly, plus the cost of the strings) and is setup with major name brand, quality strings. The bows are all inspected to make sure that they are good.

When you buy one of our "Basic Student Violins", you are getting a REAL instrument that will be able to be played throughout the students first few years, not something that has to be replaced in 3-4 months.
