The instrument is a good quality German viola made by O. R. Glier in Markneukirchen. The model after Stradivarius with well made archings of medium/flat height. The top is made of medium grained spruce, the two piece back of finely flamed maple. The varnish is a glossy spirit varnish in near mint condition, the color is a golden-yellow. The viola is undamaged and has been fully set up by the violin makers in our workshop and is offered in full playing condition. It projects well and has a bright and clear, notably well-balanced sound. Our special recommendation at the price!
