I have been looking for a beginners violin for my 6 year old daughter. If she was to borrow the schools violin and if any misfortune were to fall on the violin, I would have to pay £120 for replacement. So found that Dawsons have a sale on their violins and many other instruments and equipments.
The violin was originally £55 and now down to £25.
Dawsons Is a good music shop and has excellent customer service.
They honor their warranty.
Violin spec:
comes with a beautiful spruce top, maple back and maple sides to promote the Violins naturally produced frequencies. The body also has inlaid purfling for a stunning classical look. This is all finished in a sprayed varnish. The neck is maple and there is a metal tailpiece with integral adjusters – features that are seen on more expensive Violins.
The Allieri violin combines beautiful tone, excellent craftsmanship and reliability with incredible value for money. Also included with the violin is a quality bow and case so that you're able to begin playing straight away and have a safe place to store it when you're not.

Took a punt on this, thanks. Just need a flute and i've pretty much got a full orchestra. If only I had time to learn to play them all...

I got a 1/2 violin. for an average 6-9 year old. But if your 6 year old looks bigger than that then go for 3/4.

Is this really worth learning on. We have been recommended a stentor II?

Stentor Student II Is a very good violin. Its not what I can afford at the moment....
Because its the beginning stage and my daughter is young, I dont know if she will stick to it.
If she does then I will have to look to give her an xmas gift.

That is the classic for beginners, proven quality over many years. I have no idea if this Allieri is up to the job. Learning any instrument is a huge investment of time and money. I would you for the best you can afford even at this early stage, rather than try to save a few quid.
