Thank you for viewing. The items for sale are a violin body made by Suzuki Violin Manufacturing, a case, a new bow, new rosin, and a new shoulder rest. The case is about 40 years old. Please consider it as a bonus. The bow, rosin, and shoulder rest are the same grade as the lowest-priced items on Am◯zon. Suzuki Violin Manufacturing is a long-established violin maker, the original and authentic company of Shoichi Suzuki. The violin is a model made in 1960, according to the label. No. 17 is equivalent to No. 300 today. The list price is equivalent to 130,000 yen in modern currency. The reference price for this item at a musical instrument store is about 100,000 yen. This item is a 4/4 size and is for beginners. It is perfect for those who have learned to play several songs and have begun to understand the quality of the sound. It is also suitable for those who have opportunities to perform in public, such as recitals. The violin is in surprisingly good condition for a 65-year-old instrument. Authentic old violins with a proper provenance like this have high value as instruments, and it is possible to sell them to other players for the same price or more in a few years. Considering that, I think it's a good purchase that won't result in a loss. Tuning has been done correctly. The sound post is in place. I polished it with a special polisher for this sale. *Before shipping, I will adjust and tune it, but there is a possibility that it will loosen during shipping, so re-adjustment may be necessary. ※×※×※×※×※ A violin is an instrument that you replace one after another according to the player's skill. If you want to try playing it for fun or in the early stages of lessons, about 10,000 yen is sufficient. If you have opportunities to play in public, such as recitals, about 100,000 yen is sufficient. If you participate in an amateur orchestra, several hundred thousand yen is sufficient. If you aim for a music university, 1 million yen or more is sufficient. For professional orchestra members, several million yen is sufficient, and for famous performers, even more. There are violins of various levels. And it is common to sell the violins you no longer use to fund the purchase of the next violin. Nowadays, you can easily sell them at a high price on online flea markets. For personal enjoyment, a violin of about 10,000 yen is sufficient, and if you have a sound you want to express, a violin of about 100,000 yen is sufficient. Violins can be sold for a price close to the purchase price if you take good care of them, so I think it's a good way to play to get one easily and then let it go when you get tired of it.
