This beautiful antique violin was made more than 100 years ago in Markneukirchen, probably in the renowned workshops of August Clemens Glier, the violin as a very well-designed instrument in the Markneukirchen tradition. Many traces of time and interesting antiqueings on the top express the special character of this antique Markneukirchen violin, which is offered with a solid repair to the left soundhole in good condition. Our Cremona luthiers made it ready to play. The sound it produces is mature, resonant, bright, clear, rich in overtones, with a sweet quality. Free worldwide shipping, with 30 days returns.
