That viola is very impressive.

Currently there is a quartet display. 1706 Greffuhle Stradivari

I will be in Washington DC soon and was wondering if anyone had the contact info for the instrument curators at the Smithsonian? I understand that they are fairly welcoming to visitors.

That is encouraging because the top I am currently working on has quite a bit of runout...

Anyone want to speculate on the effects of runout on tops?

Very nice bench copies. High quality.

I thought nunzio was selling his varnish business?

I wonder if the prominent soloist (Kavakos) has had arching correction done to the 'saddled" Strad mentioned above? Did Florian sell him the instrument? Sounds damn good. I've heard it live a few times.

As usual Davide, your videos are so helpful to us. Ne plus ultra!
