Violin based on Andrea Guarneri
Model
This violin is copied from a friend’s instrument. It is shorter than average in the body, and narrower than a Stradivari or del Gesu model. It is comfortable to play with a normal stop and neck length. Like the original, the sound is clear and focussed, it is not a fat sound you sometimes get with wide instruments, but it has projection and quality, the ‘biscuit’ that one customer uses to describe the bite to the sound!
