Welcome to the Violin section.

We specialise in complete outfits for beginners and advancing students.

As well as complete outfits, we also do starter package offers, such as the £100 package, which includes a shoulder rest, tuner, clip-on tuner pickup as well as the violin outfit plus free Hidersine 3V (or equivalent) rosin.

Under £100

All our instruments come ready to play. We also include a better quality cake of rosin (such as Hidersine 3V, or similar) with each outfit that we sell - our experience has shown us that the rosins that come with outfits are inferior and make an already difficult instrument even more so!

All budget instruments are fitted with basic tape-wound strings that tend to sound metallic and tinny. For that reason we offer a string upgrade package with every instrument that we sell- with around £5 or more off the price of the strings (when purchased separately) This offer is only available at the time of purchase. The string upgrades are listed with each instrument. If your choice of string is not listed, we can offer it, just let us know!
