Hello
I am new at this forum and hoping to start violin lessons in october.

I am having problems choosing which violin to buy. 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 £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!

Yes - but go and ask the question over on the strings forum, you will get far more responses.

I rather doubt if violins are the sort of thing that come down much in price during the sales?

Edit: sorry, I see you did ask it on the strings forum as well.
