Tonal comparisons of contemporary American makers shown at Metzler Violins, 2020, but recorded, since the demonstration exhibition was cancelled. Who made your favorite? I was trying to read Fatu's face to see which was the most comfortable. And violas (clearly 2nd class fiddle): There's even at least one entrant of a forum Denizen - Barnes (above). Sorry, a general 2020 viola link is now marked private, and the general viola clipss are not able to embed, only individual ones, for some reason, so I started at the beginning. Of course, it's the violas that give trouble.... Finally beat Rue to a post. lulz.

Here's another American fiddle, and this one is frankly a "folk fiddle" I have one nearly identical to it on the bench for repair right now (the scrolls are very close, as is the general construction) and will try to get photos of the one I have up tomorrow. I'm curious as to whether anyone reading this has more, or any info, as in are we talking a maker here, a school, or a tradition.. http://www.ebay.com/itm/vintage-antique-Hand-Made-VIOLIN-Fiddle-Oak-Pine-Carved-Wood-Folk-Art-REPAIR-/310595112163?_trksid=p2047675.m2109&_trkparms=aid%3D555003%26algo%3DPW.CAT%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D142%26meid%3D5668607291354239077%26pid%3D100010%26prg%3D1076%26rk%3D3%26sd%3D290864315447%26
