A firmly closed line on the lower right front, but no open cracks or open seams. The table is medium to fine grained spruce and the back, as well as ribs and neck, is maple. The lower rib is made from a single piece of wood, as typical for Mittenwald violins. Like always the instrument has been completely checked by our luthiers and our violin player on playability. In our workshop it received new setup with newly fitted elder ebony pegs and ebony tailpiece, a new ebony chinrest, a newly fitted bridge and new strings.
These are new German silver wound steel core strings with good projection, easy to play while allowing rapid finger performance. We use these strings on mostly all of our violins to provide a comparison of the tonal qualities of each instrument in the videos. In any case a new owner should consider higher quality strings of own personal preference to enhance the full character of this violin!
Measures aprox.: total 60 cm / 23.6", body 35,7 cm / 14.1", vibrating chord length 32,8 cm / 12.9", weight 469 gr / ~16.54 oz. For further questions please feel free to ask, or/and - as we sell a lot of different violins - we would recommend to do a bit of internet research (Google / Wikipedia etc.) about makers, models and prices.
Please be aware, that mostly all violins we offer are old and in
used condition - it might differ from instrument to instrument, but
each violin will probably need personal settings to suit your individual needs ...
