It has a two piece back of moderately-flamed maple, the flame descending from the centre joint. The front is two pieces of medium-grained spruce. The varnish is golden-amber in colour and the length of back is 354 mm.
How does it sound?
This violin is smooth and silky yet also big and confident. It has that great combination of depth, power and sweetness that ideally all instruments would have! Even across the strings, this violin is a great pleasure to play.
Condition
