Please see the video & listen to the sound on youtube! Please listen to this video with headphones for best result! Fine old HOPF violin around 1st half 1800 - stamped on the upper back and inside the body. Please listen to the video/soundfile & scroll down to see all detailed XXL photos below as part of the description! Nicely carved scroll and accurately inlaid purfling.

There're no open cracks or open seams. The table is medium to fine grained spruce and the 1-piece back, as well as ribs, is nicely flamed maple. The light-weighted instrument has been checked by our luthiers and by our violin player on playability.

In our workshop it received new setup with new ebony pegs, newly fitted elder tailpiece and chinrest, a new bridge, new soundpost and new strings. These are new German silver wound steel core strings with good projection, easy to play while allowing rapid finger 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! Good old German violin in immediate playing condition!
