3/4 - French 3/4 violin, JTL or Laberte
This beautiful 3/4 violin comes from the successful Mirecourt lines, one of th models of the renowned Jérôme Thibouville-Lamy (J.T.L.) or Laberte workshops of Mirecourt. The exceptionally beautiful varnish is of a warm golden-brown color and covers a French 3/4 violin that is preserved in exceptionally fine condition. It features a warm, bright sound, with a sweet note in the higher ranges and good resonance. As all of our instruments, this French "Mirecourtien" was meticulously worked over in our atelier and is sold ready to play.
