Recommendations for Purchasing a String Instrument:
 
Recommended String Instrument Brand Names:
  
Shar Music

I would encourage the Franz Hoffman Prelude over the Amadeus, but they are both good. Make sure to purchase an "outfit".
 
Southwest Strings:

I would encourage the Klaus Mueller Allegro over the Prelude, again purchase an outfit.
