    Sorry I just felt the need to gloat.

    Technically I don't own it yet, I'm trialling it for a week but it's very likely that I'll buy it. It's a modern English violin, copied from an old italian and it was made by Andrew Fairfax. It sounds luuurrrvleh!! :grin:

    I'M SO EXCITED!! :music:

    That's awesome! How long have you been playing? I'm assuming you're more in to classical or you would have called it a fiddle? Oh and could you recommend some good violin works? (Like violin concerti and such, not just the typical symphony) I'm a pianist so that's my only real area of knowledge but I've been looking to 'branch out'. Thanks and 'grats!
