It took be about an hour to tune the violin when I first brought it
home. As soon as I let go on the tuning peg, it would instantly go slack
again. Took me ages to make it stick. Not sure if worn out or just
poorly made in the first place...
I'm wondering whether I should pay to have the violin restringed, or
just buy a decent-quality violin. Given my playing skills, probably the
former...
