Best Answer

One of the most valuable violins out there is the original "Viper", which is an electric violin with seven strings. It will one day be displayed in the Smithsonian Institution when it's creator, Mark Wood, deceases.

You can get a "sibling" of this violin online. Prices range from 3000-10,000 dollars. A signed one is even higher in value!

If you are looking for a classic, wood violin, then you would be looking at the world's most expensive instrument; Violins created by Antonio Stradivari. His violins have been sold for as much as 4 million dollars. There are said to be about 650 in existence today.
