An antique violin from Bohemia with a bright, sweet tone: This strikingly beautiful violin from Schönbach was built in the 1930s in the style of Guarneri. The wood selection for the two-piece back reveals a mysterious aesthetic beneath the rich, translucent golden-brown varnish. The medium-aged spruce top and the robustly carved scroll, the work of a skilled hand, demonstrate the highest quality. Elegant F-holes round out the striking, highly distinctive appearance of this high-quality antique string instrument. Following a thorough restoration, this violin—outstanding in both aesthetics and tone—is crack-free, requires no repairs, and is ready to play immediately. Its bright, clear, and well-rounded tone is worthy of a Guarneri model—bright, clear, with good precision, clarity, and power, and a singing sweetness in the upper registers.
