Hi I'm reposting this as my last topic title was misleading. Sorry for the double post, but.... I found a really old violin and two bows yesterday at the Salvation Army. Somebody had just donated a ton of cool antiques and I was the lucky buyer of the set at $70. I am a guitar player, so I don't know much about violins, but this was clearly very old and I could not pass it up. One bow is marked "LUPOT" the other " eduard reichert dresden" The pics are linked below. The violin looks old, but with the exception of needing new strings, it appears to be in great shape. What do people think? Thanks in advance for any replies. -Nathan PICS: https://www.flickr.c...tostream/player https://www.flickr.c...ostream/player/ https://www.flickr.c...ostream/player/

Uh oh... Maybe my topic title has thrown some people off. I wonder if I should repost this with a better title? -Nathan

Anybody? Anything?
