It wasn’t very long ago that fractional, or children’s size instruments were a bit of a rarity. Many young players suffer frustration and even injury if their instruments are too big. Today, thanks to Eastman Strings, players of all ages can have high quality instruments in the size that is right for them. Many of our instruments and bows are available in a full range of fractional sizes.

Shown here is the complete array of Samuel Eastman model 80 violins.
