Built from carefully seasoned tonewoods, the VL100 features a solid spruce top paired with maple back and ribs for a warm, balanced sound and excellent durability.

Questions from parents
Before you buy
Will my child's teacher approve of this violin?
The VL100 is one of the most respected student violin outfits available. It has a solid spruce top, maple back and ribs, ebony fittings and hand-inlaid purfling. Our luthiers adjust the bridge position, soundpost, string height and pegs before it ships.
What size does my child need?
Violin size is chosen by arm length, not age. Our sizing guide shows how to measure at home. The VL100 comes in sizes from 1/32 to full size (4/4). If your child is between sizes, call us at 203.661.9500 before ordering and we'll help you choose.
Is it good enough for a first recital?
Yes. It is made for beginning and advancing students, from first lessons through school orchestra and recitals.
What happens when they outgrow it?
Moving up a fractional size carries a $65 exchange fee. When it's time for a higher-level violin, our trade-up program can apply up to 100% of your original Atelier purchase price after a luthier evaluation.
Is it ready to play when it arrives?
Yes. It arrives set up and strung with Eastman Perlon strings, with an Eastman CA450 bow and a BL10 oblong case. The strings may need a quick retune after travel.
Can I return it?
Yes. Instruments are covered by our 45-day return window from delivery, subject to the condition requirements in our returns policy.
