Markneukirchen master violin after Guarnerius c.1930 - slim neck

Antique 1930's master violin from Markneukirchen with a slim neck. This violin was made in approximately 1930 and is a very successfully crafted instrument after Guarneri del Gesu patterns. With its very slim neck, it is an instrument especially suitable for players with small fingers. The medium grained spruce of the top and the flamed maple of the one piece back are chosen by an obviously experienced violin maker, who built this instrument with outstanding craftsmanship. The violin is an excellent reference of his skills and features a well-crafted arching and a carefully inlaid purfling. The rich oil varnish is of interesting, antique character, that is determined by the contrast of the lighter top, where the varnish has been largely worn off (discounted price). The crackfree violin has been meticulously worked over in our atelier and is offered in perfect condition, ready to play. It features a recommendable dark, radiant and powerful voice, with mature character and precision, full of volume in the lower ranges and with beautiful resonance in the upper ranges.
