Subject: RE: Half size fiddle on ebay any good?
The bridge is way too far forward, at least 2". Of course, can't tell what the bow is or will do. Not even a 'maker'....can't even tell if it's a Suzuki. Suzis are playable but that is about all. Suzi is about as low as I would go. I'd say not, for that price. Start him on a playable one, not a cheap one.
If it's not playable, he will lose interest fast. Go to a rental store with someone who can look at it for you.
