What size violin should I buy?

The best way to choose the right violin size is by measuring arm length, not age. Have the player extend their left arm straight out and measure from the neck to the middle of the palm. This is the most accurate method used by teachers and music stores.

Violin Size Guide

Arm Length Violin Size Typical Age Guide
60cm+ 4/4 (Full Size) 12+ years
56–60cm 3/4 9–12 years
52–56cm 1/2 7–9 years
47–52cm 1/4 6–7 years
42–47cm 1/8 5–6 years
38–42cm 1/10 4–5 years
35–38cm 1/16 3–5 years

These ranges are widely used across violin retailers and sizing guides, and are based primarily on arm length rather than age.

Important tips

  • If you’re between sizes, choose the smaller size for comfort and technique development
  • A violin that’s too big can cause strain and slow progress
  • Teachers or music stores can confirm sizing in person
