Im a 16 year old student that wants a good violin in the price range of maybe 1600-1800 dollors. Can someone please post maybe where to get it with their suggestions.

I used to have a very good violin that was exactly in this range. Find Schar Instruments online. Look for the Karl Joseph Schneider models. Call them up and request for them to send you some to try. This is easy and cheap. By the way, do not become obsessed with trying to get some old and nice-looking violin. Just because a violin is old does not mean it is good-sounding and often times they are overpriced. Although, if you can find a nice old violin for that price than go for it. Be sure to try lots before settling. Its a lot of money.

Get a Gliga gama and save the rest of the money.

I second the Karl Joseph Schneider. The Guarneri model is especially warm, sweet and responsive. Shar is great to work with.
