Proceed with major caution. Hope it goes ok.

I suggest getting a practice mute to help ease the noise

Crazy yes! But aslong as you are fully protected and you feel comfortable in doing it, then go for it :)

I always wanted to try violin. I can't let tinnitus stop me. Thanks for your suggestions.

I got my violin. Just spent 2 hours getting it tuned up and played out of my book for novices. I did use a 3m foam ear plug in my left ear and all seems to be well. No spike, so far.
