Do I need to spend a lot of money on a child violin?

There are two schools of thought when it comes to buying a child violin. One argument is that it is already hard enough to sound good on a really small violin, (go ahead, try it if you don't believe me) so spend more money and get a small violin that will sound good. Teachers and violin makers who promote this idea believe that if your student has an easier time making it sound really good then they will want to practice more and will be less likely to quit. Makes sense doesn't it. Teachers and parents who follow this way of thinking and spend more money on a new instrument, usually feel like the return investment is that their student sounds fabulous, practices regularly, and progresses quickly with their playing. The flip side to this debate is that if your student truly loves to play, then it won't matter how much you spend. Let me demonstrate this point. My aunt teaches elementary school orchestra. She had one student that didn't have a violin, and so she came up with a school violin for her. My aunt said that the violin was beat up and not very nice at all, but this student was so excited to have an instrument, treasured her violin, and practiced more then any of the other students in the class (even those with really expensive instruments). Teachers and parents who believe this to be true do not spend a lot of money on that very first beginning instrument. They take the 'let's see how much my student' enjoys playing approach before they invest on a nice instrument. I don't know if my first violin was expensive or not. I'm going to guess that it was not the most expensive violin because my parents bought it used off a call-in radio announcement. But to me it was golden. I loved that violin, and didn't know that anything could be better until years later when I actually did have better.

Should beginners start with acoustic or electric?

acoustic guitars People all over the world have learnt on both electric and acoustic guitars but the more common way is to learn on acoustic guitar first. This will give you greater finger strength and force you to have the discipline to learn chords for songs with strumming in them.

Are nylon strings or steel strings best for beginners?

Nylon string guitars are easier to play because their strings are softer but steel string guitars feature in modern music and are far more popular however they are slightly harder to play. After playing steel string guitars for a while, you’ll start to develop callouses which allows you to play for longer without your fingers hurting. But until you get to that point, the steel strings on an acoustic guitar might hurt your fingers. Nylon string guitars are better for fingerstyle types of music including Spanish Flamenco and Classical because the distance between strings is slightly wider than an electric guitar making it easier to fret the note. However, steel string guitars are far better for modern styles of music and if you hear a guitar being strummed, chances are that it’s an acoustic. So, the answer is that you can’t go wrong. If you want to break into the guitar with less pain on your fingertips, then you’ll want to go for a nylon string. Learning on a steel string will ensure that you’ll be developing calluses quickly and can move on to harder songs and techniques faster because your finger strength will develop faster than it would on a nylon string. If you want to know how to choose guitar strings for your guitars, then we’d recommend going for the lightest gauge possible. This means the strings are relatively the thinnest they can be and are therefore more forgiving on your fingertips.
