Beautiful deep orange – brown amber color varnish. The scroll is superbly carved, classical Italian cut. The edges are refind, and the purfling is set in with precission. Very fine to medium grain spruce on top, quality flamed maple back, sides, and neck.On the inside this violin is fully lined and blocked; the bass bar is hand carved and the sound post fitted properly. This violin comes out of my uncle estate who was a professional musician. He had it adjusted, and set up with Thomastik Vision stings. I have closely inspected the violin, and I have not noticed any issues, past or present.I have only found couple tiny hair lines on the right side of the scroll – it doesn’t effect the function of the “G” peg. The violin exhibit charm of use and age; minor scratches, dings, and varnish ware all around. I CONSIDER THIS VIOLIN TO BE IN GREAT STATE OF PRESERVATION AND IN FINE PLAYING CONDITION. This violin has marvlous sonorous voice. The tone is mature and full; resonant, and clear. Great dimanics and balance on all strings, and in all positions. Big, powerfull sound, great sustain, and amessing projection. This is a definitely an instrument for a most discriminative player.
