Before choosing a violin

Important details to review before purchasing

Older and pre-owned violins can differ significantly in condition, setup, sound and documentation. Ask for the available details about each instrument before deciding whether it is right for you.

Maker and Origin

Ask whether any maker’s label, workshop information, country of origin or estimated production period is available.

02

Condition

Review the body, neck, fingerboard, pegs, bridge, seams, varnish and other visible components for wear or damage.

03

Previous Repairs

Ask about any known crack repairs, replaced parts, seam work, neck work or other restoration completed in the past.

04

Size and Fit

The violin should be an appropriate size for the player. Confirm whether the instrument is full-size or a smaller size.

05

Setup and Playability

Bridge position, strings, pegs, soundpost, fingerboard and bow can all affect comfort, response and sound.

Documentation and Price

Request any available provenance, appraisal, certification or history and confirm the complete purchase price.
