FULL SIZE VIOLIN FOR SALE IN SOUTH AFRICA

Full size violin for sale in excellent condition. To the best of my knowledge, it is at least 60 years old. I have owned the violin since late and am now selling it as the player has moved onto a more advanced instrument. The violin is well constructed, with well flamed maple back and ribs and a medium grained top. The back is made from a single piece of maple, rather than two. The varnish is a reddish-orange and remains in its original state. The scroll has a balanced shape, and the purfling is neatly laid all around the violin. The fingerboard is made from ebony, rather than hardwood which means it will retain its shape and the colour will not fade. It is also fitted with ebony tuning pegs, shoulder rest and a lightweight wittner-style tailpiece. New Warchal Karneol A, D and G strings are fitted as well. The instrument has a very clear and bright tone, suitable for someone learning how to develop their sound production and precision of tuning (such as an intermediate student). The sound remains clear, even in the higher registers. The instrument bares no label, with only a figure that appears to be "83" stamped next to the pin. I am selling the violin along with a basic foam case and bow. The violin was valued in at R. Asking price is R
