I am a late starter to music being age 22... So I didn't want to a violin that is intended for a child's use. I have a budget of about Â£350, can anyone recommend a good one for this price? Also would it be wise to get a cheap one now and wait for janaury sales to get a good expensive one? Thanks for reading!

I rather doubt if violins are the sort of thing that come down much in price during the sales? Liz Edit: sorry, I see you did ask it on the strings forum as well.
