Thanks for taking me off the hook there Gordon
If in doubt, just buy the darned thing I'm at the place where I'm mostly content. I'm not hot, I'm not cold, I'm not stuffed, I'm not hungry. I'm at the place where I no longer trade a car because of the year. I mostly don't care about things. I'm more about can I use that thing? Will another thing help me in some way and will I need a thing because I bought the other thing? Having things means I have to make sure they work, take care of them.When I get up in the morning I put on whatever I have to wear. Don't obsess about too much of anything. I occasionally get an itch for something, do a little homework. If I think it might help me I'll buy it. I sometimes buy something if I want to try it. At one time I bought stuff without much thought.
Violins are fun to buy for. I'm sure I'll eventually get to the place where that no longer matters either. For the beginner I think it's all mainly about finding what works best and not overthinking it, for me at least. What I have found with violin playing is I go back and forth like a fickle girlfriend on everything. Sometimes one rosin is better, other times another rosin seems better. Same with strings. At any given time you never know where I'll be. I just swapped violins to a violin I didn't like. Now it seems to sound better. Maybe I'm nuts??? I'm willing to accept that if it's true

I'm trying mine out now. I don't want to put someone on the spot who might not want to be put on the spot. They were generous. I was able to try the Bonmusica. Thank you!
As for the Bonmusica. I LOVE it. Makes the difference between the violin falling off of me and having ample support. I understand it isn't for everyone but it's working very well for me!
