Please see the video & listen to the sound on youtube! Please listen to this video with headphones for best result!

Interesting old 4/4 violin with great tonal potential - presumably mid 1800 with repair label Max Krauss 1908. Please listen to the video/soundfile & scroll down to see all detailed XXL photos below as part of the description! Masterly carved scroll and accurately inlaid purfling.

This beautiful violin shows well executed repairs on front and back, but no open cracks or open seams. The table is medium to finely grained spruce and the back, as well as ribs and neck, is intensely flamed maple.

Like always the violin has been checked by our luthiers and by our violin player on playability. In our workshop it received new set-up with newly fitted elder ebony pegs, an elder ebony tailpiece and chinrest, a new bridge and new strings.

These are new German silver wound steel core strings with good projection, easy to play while allowing rapid performance. We use these strings on mostly all of our violins to provide a comparison of the tonal qualities of each instrument in the videos.

In any case a new owner should consider higher quality strings of own personal preference to enhance the full character of this violin! Excellent old master violin in immediate playing condition! Great mature sound - Please see the video & listen to the sound on youtube! Total 59,5 cm / 23.4", body 35,8 cm / 14.15", vibrating chord length 32,8 cm / 12.9, weight 432 gr / 15.24 oz.
