No reason it would not, as long as your violin has a 1/4" output. If you have an acoustic violin, you will need a pickup of some sort such as http://www.amazon.com/Daphon-Clip-On-Headstock-Ukulele-Mandolin/dp/B008HZQ2PM/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1359240521&sr=8-3&keywords=clip-on+pickup

Ball-end strings are fine for this product. As a professional I would suggest getting a specific set called Dominant. Dominant strings are imported and hand made in Austria which includes a Loop-end E string. This product uses any type of violin string.

Good question! I took the violin into an instrumental music shop, as the enclosed instructions to set up bridge weren't helpful. not being an expert I didn't want to break anything! Hope this helped.

Why not? This would depend on whether your string bridge is approximately the same width as a violin bridge. Compare your width and a fellow student's who plays the violin (the bridges, that is); if they're approximately the same, it will work. Depth does not matter. The mute is a good product for its purpose. If used often, it should remain flexible and useful for a lifetime.

These are made for 4/4 violin. The company may make some for cello, but they would need to be larger in diameter

We had the same problem - it doesn't work at all. Finally just used an old violin music stand behind the piano and adjusted it to hold the music at the piano players height. Not beautiful, but it works.

If you leave the tension very loose you can rotate. I play violin and use it all the time but fail to see the need for switching. I prefer keeping minw tight so it won't rotate.

It was for a granddaughter, for whom I also bought a tuner. She knew how to adjust the strings - so she could play it immediately. As for the bridge, she knew about that also!! So, yes, I would say for a fiddle player, it could be played right out of the box! By the way, she is still VERY happy with this instrument.

unfortunately no. however, if there's a local music store you can go to I highly recommend you go and test some of the violins out to reference the different qualities of sounds then shop around for prices. I went to bills music before deciding on a stradivarius copy.

Well there's basically two options:One is that you can use a recording interface such as the Scarlett 2i2 USB digital interface, in the which case, you would use the 1/8 output into your violin and the 1/4 output into the interface. The other option is that you could use an auxiliary cable that has the 1/8 input on both sides and simply plug one end into your violin and the other into your computer's microphone input. Hope that helps :)

Due to the difference in the overall size, shape and configuration of the head stock (location of tuning keys. etc.), I do not believe this item would work for a violin. Although I am sure that there must be something on the market made for this purpose, I personally am not familiar with it. Since Amazon can provide almost everything in the world, if it's made, they will have it.

If you mean advace, as in professional, I wouldn't but this violin has a wide range and carries a good tune. I do recommend cleaning and putting some resin on the pegs. It help it stay in tune.

I would say this is a good starter violin and beyond, Andrew. We've had no problems with it and my daughter's teacher was quite pleased with the sound quality/construction. Good luck in your choice :)

I used it for "thickness=12mm diameter=8-9.5mm hole". I have no idea about violin hole size. However it works well to enlarge wood hole. Let's try it with your own risk.

Not sure if a violin has an area to attach the device. It works fine with guitar, upright bass, ukulele, cello. It would all depend on whether there is a spot it could clip on to securely. Hope this helps!

The sound is pretty typical of electronic violins. It is fine for practice. If used for performance, external amplification and tonal controls will be required and the quality of the sound will be dependent more on the quality of those devices than on this instrument. If he has a decent standard violin, he will be dissapointed in the dynamic range of this or any other electronic instrument.
