It depends what you mean by "good quality". My advice to beginners is always not to spend too much. You won`t know what you like yet and you yourself are going to be 99% of the problem for a very long time! Just get a basic student outfit that is well set up, this is a matter of being careful who you buy from.

If you want to spend more than that then get a Gliga Gems 2 from http://www.violinslover.com assuming you are in the US.

I went on e-bay and bought a $70 electric violin, it is louder than the usual violins but it is really cool and plays well, I also just started but any violin is good.
