Yep ... it's new violin day!
One wonders if the damage would have been as severe had the chicken not been tied to the barrel.

Congratulations 
How does it sound?

Like a cat being drug through the streets while being flogged with a strip of barbed wire.
The violin itself sounds fine. A bit thin compared to what I remember my old one sounding like, but that's likely A) the strings and B) the fact that my school violin was about 30 years old by the time I got it.
Gimme a week to work on it, and I'll post a video.

Mmmmmm
Shiny! I like!
Like a black car, it's gonna show the dust! You will have to play fast, keep the dust off.
Can't wait to hear it.

Yep. Shiny. I've already had a suggestion for flames. LOL.

Very funny (laughing out loud) I had someone tell me I should put flames on my black metallic Cecilio too!!!
Congrats on your new fiddle!

LOL. I do like the idea of red pinstripes. That would be pretty cool.

I own a black violin in Sweden, couldn't bring all my stuff over, and it has red and yellow pin-stripes airbrushed on it. I'll try to get my buddy to pick the fiddle up from the music store and take some pictures for you guys.

Darn it. Why didn't anyone tell me yesterday was New Violin Day. Now I've got to wait 'till next year..
Seriously though, have fun with it!
Congratulations and have fun!
I see Dave's eyes popping out like when a crow seeing a piece of shinny treasure...
Sara, what do you mean by you have to wait till next year, when he upgrades his violin?

I was just teasing that I missed out on getting a violin on New Violin Day. Lucky for us any day is NVD if you have the cash.

Haha! I like the sound of that, for my next violin I want a white or antique one. One that is purely for aesthetics!

And congratulations artroland! Are you planning on pimping it?
I think Dave gave a pretty good suggestion:

I may just have to do it up. I mean, it's an inexpensive violin, so why not? It's not a concert-quality instrument, so I may as well. I'll have to get some striping from the auto-parts store.

That is a shiny violin. Nice. 
Maybe I should paint my cheap beginner violin. I never did like its appearance and it also got black dot marks from a shoulder rest that sat on too long.
