Joannes Baptista Guadagnini 1736 Label
France Made around 1880.
4/4 size Violin.
Body length: 358 millimeter (14.0 inches)
This is a violin with a 1736 label by Joannes Baptista Guadagnini (Giovanni Battista Guadagnini).
It is believed to have been made in France around 1880.
JB Guadagnini (Cremona, Italy 1711-1786) is said to be one of the greatest string instrument makers of all time, along with Stradivari Guarneri.
He continued to create while moving from place to place, and is famous for his style, which varies greatly depending on the time of production (place of production). Opinions vary as to which period of his work is his best work, and he left behind many fascinating works throughout his life.
It is finished with a deep brown varnish, and the spruce top and maple side and back panels are made from the highest quality materials, making this a stunning piece of work.
The back plate is made from a single piece of wood, and the overall manufacturing precision is very high, giving it a stunning appearance that could easily be mistaken for a genuine old piece from that time.
It's actually a modern piece made around 1880, about 150 years after the original, but the fact that it was made almost 150 years ago makes you feel the depth of the violin's history.
This is a wonderful instrument.
It has been fully adjusted (piece adjustment, peg adjustment, soul pillar adjustment, polishing, cleaning, overall adjustment).
All of the peg hole bushings, spliced ​​necks, and minor cracks have been repaired.
The fitting parts (pegs, tailpiece, chin rest) were replaced with high-quality ebony materials.
It has been replaced with new nylon strings.
It has been adjusted and maintained, so you can use it immediately after tuning.
