Is an acoustic violin the same as a violin?

Both violins are good, but it depends on what you like more. Acoustic violins are good if... *you want to play classical music *you don't want to worry with the technical things *you want to just have a common, old fashioned violin Electric violins are good if... *you want to make your own kind of rock/modern genre of music *you are willing to get the deal with the technical things (and buy them) *you want to have a modern, unique violin There are pros and cons with both, but if you want to be simple, get the acoustic. If you want to be futuristic, get the electric. You may even get both! (if you have the money ;) )

Is a fohnwind violin a good brand?

This really depends on what level of violin playing you're currently at. Fohnwind makes quality beginner violins, but other brands make better advanced violins. Their Fohnwind Model 12 is their beginner violin that many students use to learn to play at the very beginner. After the student plays for two years, the student may want to upgrade to a violin with a deeper tonality or try out an entirely new instrument. I'd recommend you to hear the Fohnwind violins being played on MozartViolins.com
