Guadagnini model: A design with history
This violin is based on the classic model of the legendary violin maker Giovanni Battista Guadagnini. Known for its exceptional sonority and expressiveness, the Guadagnini model is characterized by brilliant clarity and at the same time warm, profound tones. The design of this model harmonizes tradition with modern technology and is particularly suitable for musicians who are looking for a powerful yet differentiated sound that unfolds its expressiveness in every musical nuance.
High-quality tonewood from the Alpine region
Carefully selected, aged tonewood from the Alpine region was used to build this violin. This wood, which has been dried naturally over the years, ensures a unique sound quality. The combination of deep, full tones and clear, brilliant highs makes the instrument a true pleasure for the musician.
Beautiful spruce ceiling and sycamore floor
The spruce top made of close-grown, evenly structured spruce ensures a clear and resonant sound projection. In combination with the deeply flamed sycamore maple back and sides, a harmonious, lively sound is produced that shines in all playing styles.
Perfect paintwork and fine materials
The violin is hand-varnished with a classic reddish-brown varnish on a gold background. This special varnish made from high-quality natural resins and oils not only gives the violin a noble, shiny look, but also supports the vibration of the wood, optimizing the sound and creating a particularly resonant playing experience.
Precision and comfort: ebony fingerboard and saddle
High-quality ebony was used for the fingerboard and saddle. This material offers exceptional durability and a pleasant feel that supports the musician in both technique and comfort.
Berdani components: English pegs and a Guarneri chin rest
The English tuning pegs and tailpiece as well as the specially designed Guarneri-style chin rest made of high-quality dark boxwood ensure precise mechanics and stable tuning. The chin rest also ensures a secure hold and high comfort when playing.
strings and fine tuners
The violin is strung with Pirastro Gold strings, which are known for their excellent response and long-lasting sound quality. The fine tuner on the E string guarantees precise tuning stability and the finest tuning, which makes playing this violin particularly pleasant.
Bridge by Aubert de Lux: Sound and stability
The Aubert de Lux bridge ensures perfect balance and stability of the sound, allowing the violin to reach its full potential in all ranges, from soft, warm tones to powerful, overtone-rich highs.
Sound character: versatility and expressiveness
