Handmade Soloist level Violin, 2022 Dark Brown, Built in USA by Crow Creek Fiddles

 Don't miss the opportunity to own this gorgeous master grade violin. Violins in this category increase in value over the years, since due to playing and ageing the sound becomes more desirable.

   Hand crafted with great precision; this instrument produces the extraordinary tone which has become a staple of Crow Creek Fiddles. As my highest-level instrument, this can be considered equal to many of the instruments you will hear on well-known radio or television performances. It clearly sings the tones that all professional players strive to produce. It features perfect balance from low to high, powerful projection, loud volume with a large dynamic range, and a warm deep rich timbre.

   With the neck and fingerboard shaped to fit the players hand perfectly, and the strings set close to the fingerboard for maximum ease of playability, you won't want to put this violin down! It features high quality European tonewood, responsibly harvested from the high elevations of the alps to produce lightweight plates for the best possible tonal potential. As the pictures display, this wood is not only ideal for sound but also beauty. The flame of the maple back, sides, and neck is irresistibly attractive. The front has a very slight corduroy texture. These qualities are all enhanced by the beautiful industry leading Old Wood varnish.  This varnish, made from the finest ingredients is rich in color and transparency. It does a marvelous job at bringing out the wood's full potential for beauty. This violin features a one piece back. The neck and scroll have been meticulously hand-carved from a solid block of maple with great care and precision. The plates have been carefully carved to extra precise graduations. The extra crisp attractively shaped f-holes have been gracefully fluted to flow into the elegant arching. The heel has been artistically shaped, and the fingerboard is carved from the highest grade of African ebony available. The purfling has been painstakingly hand inlaid with accurate bee stings.

     The professional setup features a delicately hand-carved Despaiu 3-tree bridge and carefully positioned sound post. It includes a beautiful set of rosewood fittings with gold trim which match the varnish color perfectly. The tailpiece has a fine tuner on the E string for easy tuning. The chinrest is also rosewood of the guarnerius style with gold hardware, and the endpin has an intricate shape with a gold pin. This instrument has been setup with Pirastro Obligato strings.
