The Violin
The Violin is the smallest of the orchestral strings family. It is also the highest sounding instrument of the string family. Violins come in a variety of sizes. Depending on their age and size, a student will play either 1/8, 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, or 4/4 (full size). A Bill's Music sales representative will be able to measure a student to determine the correct size instrument to fit them correctly. Before playing, a student should tighten the bow and apply rosin to the bow hair. New rosin should have the surface roughed up with something like a key to enable it to flake off and adhere to the bow hair more easily. Violins are tuned backwards from a bass guitar (GDAE). Once a violin is tuned, the main friction pegs should be left alone, and the violin should then be tuned with the fine tuners located on the tailpiece. The violin bridge should be positioned to align with the notches cut into the f-holes on the face of the violin. If the bridge falls over, it can be repositioned merely by reducing the tension on the strings and standing the bridge back up to align with the notches in the f-holes. A sound post inside the violin supports the bridge and assists with tone. If the sound post falls over, the violin needs to be taken to a repair shop to have the sound post reset. Otherwise, the top could warp or collapse. Like all string instruments, better violins use solid woods instead of laminates. The woods used in violin making are usually spruce for the top and maple for the back, sides, and neck.
