Violins sound better with time due to several factors: * Wood maturation: The wood used in violin construction continues to settle and change its properties over time, affecting the instrument's resonance and tone. * Varnish settling: The varnish on the violin also settles and ages, which can enhance the instrument's sound projection and tone color. * String changes: As strings are played and replaced, they develop a unique character that can contribute to the overall sound of the violin. * Player familiarity: With time, the player becomes more attuned to the instrument's nuances, allowing them to play it with greater sensitivity and expression. These factors combine to create a richer, more complex sound in older violins, often sought after by professional musicians. read less

the wood used to construct them "matures" over years of playing, allowing the wood fibers to align and vibrate more efficiently, creating a richer, more resonant tone with better projection

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.
