I was thinking of buying an acoustic-electric violin. But I noticed that most electric violins has a 9-volt battery compartment.

I’m like, the onlyyyy violin who can’t play vibrato. I’d be the best in my class if it wasn’t for this! I have small-ish hands and can barely play on the G, but my violin isn’t too big for me… Just my hands. That really makes it hard for me. I literally CAN’T do it. [...]
