First Violin

I have always wanted to learn the violin, and to be honest I’ll probably end up playing a lot of fiddle. I’m in a fortunate position financially so I don’t mind spending money on this, whatever makes sense for a beginner, probably somewhere in the 1,500 CAD range I’d assume? Though I’m open to going higher (up to 5K to start) if it genuinely makes sense for a beginner. What would be a good first instrument?

A couple of things worth mentioning, since fiddle is likely going to be my main focus, I’m open to a setup that suits that style if that changes the recommendation at all. I’m in Canada if that matters for sourcing. I play the guitar, piano, and bass also so I’m not a new musician.
