Has anyone ever heard of this brand? I do not have a model number and I'm actually having trouble looking it up online. I can't understand if they are cheap violins or decent. Someone is selling one for $215 which is a steal if it's any good. Always wanted a five string....and it looks pretty cool too. Black with the shape of a treble clef.

Nope, it's this one. I think it's different:

My husband just looked at me like "and you need this because...?" so I guess I'm going to pass on it. It's that C string calling to me....how I love the C string....

How about this?

( or did you see that ?)
AND, no sound post to fall over
Do you have any amplifier equipment ?

I did see it, actually, when I was trying to find information on Straus.
I mean, I don't even need the one on craigslist, I was just thinking if it's a $1000 violin for $215....cool. If it's a $115 violin for $215, I'll pass.
When I wanted to buy an electric violin, no one was selling them in my area. I ended up on a vacation in Nashville and I picked mine up used at a Sam Ash. I debated between it and an acoustic violin with 5 strings and a built in pick up...but it had been painted this sparkly metallic green and I couldn't get past that.
NOW, of course, there are TWO electric violins on my craigslist!
And no, I still didn't get an amp for my other electric violin!

I think these are popular but I don't know a lot about it. My amp is also a guitar amp (Sienna) but I can hardly lift it !!!!!

Let me know if you're interested. I have a high school relative who is an intern with the Philadelphia Orchestra, Concert master of 3 youth orchestras, plays violin, viola and Mark Woods Viper and attended a Woods camp this year and has performed semi pro with a rock band. She sometimes will answer my e-mail
(maybe)
