A rarity from the 1800s. This violin, made in Markneukirchen Germany is a fine example of old-world charm. These violins with gargoyle or lion head scrolls have grown very rare and are much sought after. 

Personally setup and lovingly restored to showroom condition. With Pirastro Obligato strings, Despiau bridge, and Pusch tailpiece with built-in carbon fibre fine tuners.  Inspired by Giovanni Paulo Maggini, and with added design characteristics of Bartolomeo Giuseppe "del Gesù" Guarneri, this violin has a most pleasant tone, broad spectrum and is powerful. Will not disappoint.
