Can I put different strings on this electric violin?

Yes, you can. Many electric violinists use D’Addario Helicores. These can be used for acoustic violins too but they sound quite good on electric violins.

Ask what sort of strings are on the violin when you get it. I assume they would be Yamaha strings :
