Palatino violins are strictly 'entry-level' low cost and suitable for beginner's.
great quality
Yes. Even though it's made in China, it's of good quality.
No. It's cheaply made Chinese garbage. For your own sake, never buy from Palatino. If you have the money, look for a Shire or Edwards. Bach and Conn are good as well, so is Yamaha.
Yes, unfourtnantly they are out of production. The style was a little different from fender's electric violin's models but it still had the same quality sound for a cheaper price.
Good luck finding an honest appraiser! Violin resellers need their cut so they cannot answer exactly. As a student, I ask my experienced teacher about these things. A good quality violin that old is likely to be worth a lot, so get many quotes to form your opinion.

Palatino was created in 1948.

Anything coming from the Suzuki co will be garbage basically. If you want a quality violin from China go to eBay and look for Yita Music, or Melody with Violin stores. For a few hundred dollars you can get a great quality violin

The violin I am using now was $2,000 when I bought it five years ago and was bought to get me through high school. The cheapest violin I've ever bought was $100. It was my first violin so its tone was not good and it was very hard to tune. To get a good quality violin, it usually cost $1000-$5000. It just kind of depends on whether you're looking for a violin for a beginner, intermediate, or advanced person.
depends on the quality
southwest strings by cheap i mean around $200 which is relatively cheap for a violin and they are good quality at southwest strings. Anything less than that at any other place will probably be bad quality. I bought my vioin for around $100 and Vivace Music Store and the quality is quite good. I used it for 3 years now, and it's still in very good shape.
