You are old enough to play a 4/4 size violin. However, most instructors prefer a 3/4 size violin for your age. The most important thing is what you feel the most comfortable with.

this SHOULD be the proper size for an 11 year old.. BUT this is apparently a pretty poorly made violin. I took my daughters in for repair and they said it was not worth the attempt, It basically fell apart after one year of use.

I think so, Beatriz. I bought this for my daughter who is 9, and it's perfect for her. I hope this helps!

Im 12 and Ive played one before at a music store and Love the hihats and crash. An adult can play this because its the same size as a jazz kit.

I think this is a good starter violin. Everything you need is there. The violin has good sound quality, stays in tune and has decent resonance. It will take a good while and a lot of practice before you grow out of this violin.

Absolutely! This is something for anyone who likes music - no matter what the age. And it's great as a gift because you don't "grow out of it" like many fad ideas. You might even find yourself playing it sometime!

I don't know. I bought it for a 4/4 and have not ever used a smaller violin. If the string spacing is the same I don't see why it wouldn't.

Yes it is! When choosing a violin the numbers tell you what size it is. 4/4 (this violin) is the full size. 1/4 is very little. For younger children (ages 3 to 4) there are violins that can come very, very little. 1/16 is about the smallest size. But yes, this violin is full size. Good luck!

This was a gift for my granddaughter. She is a third grader and the violin is not full size but am not sure hoe big it is. The case works for her. Sorry I don't know more.

I would say for younger as well but I'm saying yes to a beginning 12 yr old because my son still has a little bit of a tough time pulling back the strings to shoot. He is 12 and loves his

This is not top of the line but it is one that will work for a beginner. The strings might hurt their fingers until callus are built. When you find that you or your child is committed to learning and has a real passion for violin then I would purchase a better one.

There is a String Swing violin hanger that is perfect for 1/8 and 1/4 size violins. Its String Swing Model CC01VS. Has the same wood block as the CC01V, just a different cradle. You can get a new CC01V cradle only (no wood block) and replace the cradle without changing out the wood block when you want to hand a 3/4 or 4/4 size violin or viola. These items are generally available through any String Swing Authorized Retailers. Your Friends at EZPICKN

I think this would be helpful for any instrument. I don't play violin, but having the ability to slow down and loop passages for rehearsal makes learning much faster for me.

Yes. Provided it is the same shape and length as a 4/4 acoustic violin. thanks. Castle Music

No! A 4/4 violin is closest in size to a 14" viola. A 13" viola is more like a 3/4 size violin.

As a seventy year old, it seems just right for me. Does not seem small. Learning how to play it may take me seventy more years!!!

I am a beginner also. I would suggest going to YouTube and check out a video by fiddlerman. He reviews the black version of this violin. He gave a favorable review. What he plays in the video sounds good. Alot better than my playing. You will probably want to get higher quality strings. Hope this helps.

You have to buy the exact size case for your violin. A case made for a 4/4 violin would be way too big for a 1/2 size violin. And allow the smaller violin to move around inside of the case and possibly get damaged. Buy a 1/2 size case for your 1/2 violin and your violin will fit snuggly and securely.

This violin is not good for a 16 year old. Buy a full size and go with a better brand. Violins are expensive and cheap ones make it hard to learn to play. Franz Hoffman is a better brand. I'm not sure what you mean by 5/10 but a 5 year old needs a 1/4 size and a 10 year old probably needs a 3/4.
