    Many violin tutors skip the dots, so without the dots, finger muscle memory was delayed. Thank you Alison for helping in this early process of notes.

      1/8 inch pinstripe tape used for cars works great also. You can get it where they sell auto parts or order it on line. Its stays on the violin for a long time and easy to remove, won't cause any damage to the frett board. I cut a piece that goes across the 4 strings

    Thanks. I've recently returned to the violin after 12 years of not playing. I got to grade 5 but my intonation is now shocking and I am back in an orchestra :o I'm giving in and adding stickers until I pick it up again!
    I never had particularly good intonation, but since adding them I've found that I've trained my brain to think that a flat 1st finger on each string was correct. I was shocked at how far down 36mm is :o I would play the 3rd more in tune, because I had the g string to reference to on the d string and the 4th finger the next open string, but my 1st was always flat. Maybe I should have kept the stickers longer or my teacher should have put them back on when I was younger. My 'muscle memory' was wrong because I was listening for the wrong pitch!

  • @AstronomyGuru84

    I used car pin stripe tape to do this. The 1/8" size tape is perfect for this. I was going to use dots but was afraid they would move around after a while and fall off.

  • @stratoincendus3869
    @stratoincendus3869 8 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    How about double checking the position of the dots with a guitar tuner (fret the note and see whether the tuner says it's spot on)? Obviously this only works if the open strings are perfectly in tune, but... that's what they should be anyway. :)

    Do the dots go in the center of the violin or underneath the second sting?

    Can u plz tell the dots to be put for a 2/4 violin...is it the same as this?

    I doublechecked the space between the dots and the point of the violin where you start measuring, and when my violin is in tune (I checked with two different tuners^^) the notes, e.g. the E on the D string, is slightly over the dot, and not exactly on the dot, so what did I do wrong? Same goes with the third finger, I even checked the notes on the dots with my tuners and the correct tone is always a little bit higher than the dot itself :/ Does anyone know why this can happen? :)

    If you put the edge of your ruler against the bottom of the nut and then make your mark alongside 36mm on the ruler, then that mark will be more than 36mm from the bottom of the nut because there is always a gap between the edge of the ruler and zero. This gap will vary between different makes of ruler.

    Does anyone know how long it usually takes most people to get off the finger guide?

    This was great help!! Thanks!! But I have three questions for you!!
    1. How much was the bow you usually use and the bow that was extremely light?
    2. How much was your violin?
    3. And what are all the instruments you play?
    I play five including the violin and piano!! :) violin is my newest and I'm just at a level two or so, but I'm at a level 10 in flute. Teens rock!!

    My daughter has a 1/4 size violin (most children will be using smaller violins) where can I find the correct measurements for a smaller violin??

    Great video! I'd like to know what those distances are for 1/16 size violins -- I suppose it could just be figured out by ratios?

    • @TheOnlineViolinTutor

      Mandolin1944 I dont know. The vast majority of my subscribers/watchers have full size violins. Try Google.

    I have a 4/4 locally made violin. But when I followed these measurements, the tune is not right. When I do the 3rd finger placement on G string, it gives me a D flat. So basically it is half step higher. Can someone help me with this. Thank you

    Helped me a Lot. Thanks.
    I couldn't find measurements for FOURTH position. There are even no stickers available.
    PLEASE can you provide measurements for fourth position???
    The same measurements would not work as the notes get closer as we go upwards.
    Thanks a lot.

    • @TheOnlineViolinTutor
      @TheOnlineViolinTutor  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      There are no measurents for 4th position as by the time you are playing in 4th position, you shouldnt need them!

    Ugh I'm even more confused now... I haven't played violin for about 10 years now and I want to start again but I removed the tapes a long time ago and I want to put new ones on. I've been looking around for fret measurements on the net and I get lots of different numbers from each places I look at and I don't know which one is the right one for my violin. My violin Scale length is 32.6 cm. One site says: 1st at 3.5cm, 2nd at 6,6cm, 3rd at 8cm and 4th at 10,7cm. Another site says: 1st at 3.6cm, 2nd at 6.7cm, 3rd at 7.9cm and 4th at 11cm. And you also give different measures so I have no idea what to go for now.
