Informally, how long does one stay in each of the first basic volumes (1-3 I`m guessing). As an older student, I want to really hammer home the basic technique and bowing I`m getting in volume one for example, but would like some feedback on how long one can expect to spend in each volume. Work ethic is excellent. Although I play several instruments, most of them are by ear except banjo with a pretty good helping of theory formally.

I love this violin, but want to do it right. Inquiring minds want to know.

al `why didn`t I start this instrument so much earlier` justice
