Famous violin maker?
Stradivarius. He is the most famous violin maker of all times. you can buy one of his violins for a few million dollars. He uses some kind of famous method to make them. Barely any of his violins still exist. Now, for a few thousand dollars, people make models of his violins using his method. Still, the original copies are a lot more paresis.
How many people play violin?
The violin is an instrument popular throughout Europe, North and South America. It is also played in China and India. Its present form dates back to 16th century Italy. There are roughly 700 violin instrument manufacturers in the world at the present time, who probably average 10,000 instruments per year. Although many of these instruments may be gathering dust, those who learned to play them would still know how. Also, those who know how to play the fiddle, cello, viola, bass, or viola da gamba would likely also know how to play the violin--or quickly pick it up.Although some instruments might never be played, others might be played by multiple people. Nevertheless, an estimate of the number of violins would approximate the number of people who know how to play. Of course, many people who know how to play the violin may no longer own one, and very few people who know how to play would own more than one violin. Assuming the rate of manufacture has remained fairly constant over the past century, and that very few instruments more than a century old would continue to be played, we may estimate about a million violins world wide, and therefore roughly (and conservatively) a million violinists. Approaching this question from another angle, about 1 in 5 people play a musical instrument. Out of 6 billion people world wide, that pencils out to 1.2 billion. What fraction of those play the violin? If only 1 out of a thousand do so, that is 1.2 million violinists. One out of a hundred would give us 12 million violinists. The answer is probably somewhere in between. Lots of people play guitar, drums, wind instruments, and the piano, while not as many play the violin--although it is one of the instruments recommended for budding musicians.

Yes it is, because you don't know how to play the violin when you are born! So yes, it is a learned behavior from human kind. That said, some people are more likely to be born with the abilities needed to learn how to play it. Still, you have to learn how to harness such abilities.
