Violin: The violin or “fiddle” is a string instrument which is played with a bow. It is the smallest member of the string family of orchestra instruments. The violin has 4 strings. The names of the strings are E, A, D and G. The violin is very similar to the viola, but the violin has plays higher pitches. The violin comes in fractional sizes 1/64 to 3/4 and of course the 4/4 size violin.

Violin parts : Bridge – The violin bridge holds up the strings. It is shaped in an arch to make it possible to play on one string at a time. Of all the parts of the violin this is the most delicate. A Violin Luthier must carve the bridge feet to fit the top of the violin. Against popular belief the violin bridge is actually NOT glued to the top of the violin but help in place by the strings. Ferule – The Violin Bow Ferule is a small metal piece that covers the hairs at the frog end of the bow. The hairs and wedged in place under the Ferule with a small piece of wood. The Hairs are not glued in so do not pull loose hairs out, cut broken bow hairs instead with nail clippers or scissors.
