Hi. How much would it cost to repair the strings and bridge on a violin, roughly, in NYC?

I am trying to figure out if it is a better idea to repair my violin (I need a new case too) – or just a new "beginners" one on eBay…

Thanks!

It depends on the quality of the violin.
You will have to get the bridge propaly fitted….
The bridge it self wont be very expensive.

And if you get good quality strings it would be around $50 us dollars.
I recommend the brand dominant.

You can probably get a second hand case but It will also have to be good quality too protect your violin…

If you are a full size violinist you wont need to buy a new violin ever.
SO get a good quality one from the start.

If your old violin’s body is good quality just get the repairs.
