Sorry, a little too late to this thread to make a difference for JohnW63, since he's already ordered a kit.

When I got the urge to try to learn the violin (viola, actually) a short ways back, I found a local music store that supplies student-grade instruments to the local high schools for their band and orchestra programs. I was able to arrange an adult month-by-month rental of a decent quality instrument for around $20 per month. I rented long enough to come to the realization that I don't have the ear for fretless instruments.
