Got one used Germain violin from a violin store for $350+tax.
I saw some people sell violin on Kijiji in ottawa aera and some sell through Suzuki website.
There are two violin stores in Ottawa, soundpost and Peter dawson.
In Peter Dawson, the violins outfits ranging around $400 are all chinese violins.
I saw one German violin is priced at $600.
ottawa_it_blue_collar &
猫胖胖 are right.
I did lots of researches, the more expensive violins are producing much richer and pleasing sound.
But for beginners, a violin ranging form $200-$500 is enough. Beginners need to learn lots of skills and you never
know when the kid will break it.
I will buy a more expensive advanced one or professional one, if my kid reaches full-size violin.
Thanks for ottawa_it_blue_collar & 猫胖胖.
I'd also like to buy my child one, did you buy a violin? where? Thanks.
