Will the wood used to make Violin influence the output of sound coming from Violin?
Absolutely! There lies the difference in sounds for a Stradivari and a locally made one! And even worse are factory-made violins!

Any book that you can suggest for me to play Violin by myself?
It's absolutely not possible to learn violin by reading books only. At least manage to get some good violin tutorials online or go to a violin trainer. anyway, these two books are best. Suzuki Violin Method. Galamian.

Hi, I want to learn to play the violin, and I am not sure which violin to go for as a beginner. I don't have any local shop nearby, so I probably would have to order online. Can someone help with which violin I should buy?
You should always go to the store and check out yourself by playing on different acoustic instruments. Even if they look the same, the sound won't! Play by yourself and pick the one you like.
