  1. Indeed! I have a very unique birthmark myself in the shape of a cloud. “Imperfection” improves on the perfect sometimes!
  2. @PhilipKT@David Burgess@nathan slobodkin@Rue my teacher has a good heart. He doesn’t really like talking about money much. In fact, I originally thought this viola was going to be at least SGD$500 above my budget but it turned out to be SGD$300 below my budget. It just sounds very beautiful, and he made sure to set up an instrument that had potential to produce a bigger, warmer sound once I had “infused my soul” with it. I just wanted to see if there was anything to what he said about the marking, that’s all he was probably led to believe it attributes to a better sound himself My viola is a handsome instrument with a unique marking, I guess!
  3. I don’t think he’s trying to paint a rosy picture of it. It’s more likely that it was what he was told himself.
  4. Thank you, Don for this information! It would be interesting to see studies done on instruments with these anomalies. Glad it at least doesn’t hurt the sound
  5. Thanks Wilano! Do you happen to know any examples from the big names that I can google and take a look at?

  7. Hi! I am new to this site. I’ve been trying to find out what the line on my viola top plate is called. You can see it in the picture attached under the left f hole. My teacher couldn’t recall what it is called, but he says that good instruments have unique things like this that reinforces certain frequencies and provides better resonance. I don’t know how true that is, but I’d still like to find out what this line is called.
