Bohemian violin (manufactured), beginning/ middle of the 20th century. Ideal as good violin for beginners or for advanced – I learned violin on this instrument, when I visited the music school. Well in shape (small wears like in the fotos) with a strong sound and ready to be played.

• G-String (guood) – easy to play in the heights
• D-String (plastic)
• A-String (plastic)
• E-String (gilt aluminum) – warm and brillant with the Kaplan string

The sound samples are only played on the introduced string. The violin is extraordinary easy to handle in the higher locations. This instrument wasn´t played for a long time.

The used strings

The therefore used strings are – beside of the E-String – not optimized and should be tried out with other ones. The bassbar is from baroque construction. A conversion could also influence the sound positively!

The instrument is for sale for 600,00€ and would rise in its value after a conversion. How much, would show the sound after its optimization.
