Oh you are kidding me, i would love to take lessons again! I played the violin when i was 8 or 9 way before i played the cornet. I would love to get back into it and take lessons again..but to find a violin at a decent price that didn't have moisture damage........ :( arm and a leg!!! Even though i don't play it anymore, i couldn't bear to trade in my Holton for sentimental reasons.
