Small Violins

 

1/16 to 3/4 size

  • Franz Helmer, $350 instrument only, $450 outfit

The Franz Helmer represents an excellent value for the beginning student.  These violins come from finer Chinese workshops, and all are set-up and adjusted at Gailes’ Violin Shop, Inc.  We find that their quality is consistently high, unlike so many comparably priced Chinese instruments.  They offer good playability and a quick and easy response.  These violins feature acoustic tonewoods of maple and spruce that are far superior to their competition, as well as ebony pegs and fingerboard and genuine Wittner tailpieces.

  • Many other models are in stock for sale or rental.  Please ask about current availability and pricing.
