GUEST,JR Left Handed violin (24) Tech: Left Handed violin 01 Sep 04


I've been wanting to learn violin for a few years and yesterday got a good deal on a beginning level violin. I'll try to play it right handed, but am pretty sure I'll end up wanting to string it left handed. Is there any down side to stringing them backward? Does it affect tone? Other than reversing the strings and the bridge, is there anything else that should be done for that kind of a conversion?
Thanks
