Where do I find an Instrument?

Note from your Teachers:
Renting or purchasing an instrument from a music store is highly recommended. If you wish to purchase an instrument online, please consult with the instrumental teacher who will be happy to make a recommendation.

Can't I just buy a cheap violin (or other instrument) on Amazon? Click here for more info!
