A Violin for a Lifetime

Donation protected
My name is Basil, and I'm a 15 year old violinist from Memphis, TN. I have been playing the violin as far back in my life as I can remember and it has always remained my favorite hobby. 
You probably know that violins come in all sorts of types and with varying degrees of sound quality and tone. You also probably know that as a violin's quality increases, so does the price. When I got my first full size violin five or so years ago, it was a great fit for me, skill level wise.  Since that point, I have made great progress as a musician. 
I have dreams of going into a great music school and being in an environment that will allow me to learn and collaborate with people like myself.
My teachers and friends have expressed to me that I would like that to happen, I should invest in a new instrument. 
I looked for a long time, but finally settled on one that is a very great price for such quality. Unfortunately, the price is still too high for me to reach by myself. 
The maker has placed it on hold, but I don't know how long that will last. I could come up with the money on my own, but by then it will probably be too late.
That's where you come in.
No amount is too small, and every dollar, every cent that is donated makes a huge difference for me. 

Thank you,
Basil
