Back to Collector's Violins - Back to New Violins

This Bulgarian violin was crafted in the style of the Carrodus violin by Giuseppe Guarnerius del Gesu (1743).

The violin is carved of select well-seasoned European spruce and Balkan maple tone wood. It is finished with a matte premium-quality Italian varnish. The finish features skillful antiquing and a magnificent amber-redish color of great transparency.

The right side of the fingerboard is embellished with a beautiful and unique brown stripe of grain [see photo].

The sound of this instrument is rich and powerful with beautiful nuances and ringing overtones that render the tonal characteristics of a mature Italian violin. The instrument is suitable for advanced students or adults seeking a substantial upgrade to their instrument.

The violin is equipped with fine hand-carved ebony fittings, Corelli Crystal perlon-core strings, and a deluxe German-made maple bridge.

About our Violins

All our violins have been carefully selected for their strong, clear tone and are luthier set up, including new bridge, soundpost and strings. Most used instruments have been upgraded with quality matching pegs, end button, tailpiece and chinrest.

Trades are considered towards the purchase price. Other instruments can be located and brought in upon request.

Regarding the authenticity of instrument labels, it is a tricky business to prove authenticity of instruments even for the finest luthiers. Sometimes the counterfeits can be finer than the originals! Therefore I regret that I cannot ensure the authenticity of used instruments unless they come with a certificate.

All instruments are sold as-is. An exception is with instruments with repaired cracks which open up, in which case we would have it repaired for you.
