$2700.00

I\'M OFFERING A PROFESSIONAL MASTERPIECE OF ITALIAN VIOLIN MAKING,WITH A FINE SOLO SOUND ! THE INSTRUMENT CREATION IS ATTRIBUTED TO CARLO II BERGONZI, WHO WAS BORN IN 1757 , AND DIED IN 1836. THERE IS NO DATE REFLECTING WHEN THE VIOLIN WAS MADE ON THE LABEL, BUT THE MAKER\'S DATE OF BIRTH IS PRESENT. CARLO II BERGONZI\'S EARLIEST KNOWN VIOLIN IS DATED FROM 1780. THE VIOLIN HAS A REMARKABLE BODY,AND IS IN EXCELLENT PLAYING CONDITION :
THERE ARE NO CRACKS ,AND THE VIOLIN COMES WITH ITS ORIGINAL GOLDEN-AMBER VARNISH. THE SOUND OF THE INSTRUMENT IS BIG ,WELL -BALANCED ,AND WARM,WITH SUBTLE NUANCES AND TIMBRE.
THE INSTRUMENT HAS ITS OWN VOICE. THE SPRUCE ON THE TOP SIDE HAS A CAPRICIOUS LINE ON IT,AND THE BOTTOM SIDE AS MADE WITH
A SOLID PIECE OF AMAZING IRREGULAR CURLY LINED MAPLE ,GIVING THE INSTRUMENT AN ORIGINAL APPEARANCE.
EBONY INLAY WAS USED ON UPPER PART OF THE BOTTOM OF THE VIOLIN. THE NECK OF THE VIOLIN WAS PROFESSIONALLY REPLACED,AND THE PEGS POSITION WAS CHANGED :
THE ACTION EXTENDING BETWEEN THE TOP SIDE,AND THE NUT ,IS TYPICAL FOR OLD VIOLINS DUE TO THE LENGTH . NOW THE INSTRUMENT HAS A CORRECT STANDARD 130mm LENGTH BETWEEN THOSE POINTS AFTER THE NECK WAS REPLACED (LONG TIME AGO ). THE BASE BAR ON THE VIOLIN WAS PROFESSIONALLY RE-SET ,AND OTHER COSMETIC WORK AND SOUND ADJUSTMENTS
WERE PERFORMED IN 2014. THE SET OF NEW PEGS ,AND TAIL PIN WERE REPLACED AS WELL. THERE ARE SYNTHETIC STRINGS ON THE VIOLIN . DIMENSIONS : 361mm length/ 164~110~202 mm
I \'M GOING TO SHIP THIS PIECE OF ART IN AN OLD HARD WOODEN CASE .
