Violins

Anything you need to know about violins.

I want to buy an electric violin. Where should I buy, and how much should I pay?

on November 6, 2009

If there are any experts out there, or people with some time who want to do some internet research, I would be interested in your knowledge.

I am interested in buying an electric violin so I can play with headphones while my significant other is sleeping. I have played the trumpet in college and high school, but I would like to try something different.

I do not need a professional model. "Student quality" would probably work, but I just don’t know the price range I should be looking for.

I love the Yamaha Silent SV200 violin. Relatively quiet and has an earphone out- though if its quiet enough you could hear the strings yourself. If you’re trying to not wake some one- its still not recommended to play in the same room :P
