Here is an article I ran across recently on what to look for when purchasing a violin, new or used.

I just posted, I didn't write it but it's something to think about for those who know absolutely nothing about violin's.

Thanks for the article, it contained some excellent advice.

A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort. ~Herm Albright
