C.B.Fiddler Posted May 22, 2007 Report Share Posted May 22, 2007 I think it may be best used as a strainer. Strainer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beaux Eau Posted May 22, 2007 Report Share Posted May 22, 2007 Gee. Serious collectors only. I guess that puts me out of the bidding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DutchViolins Posted May 22, 2007 Report Share Posted May 22, 2007 The other instrument is NOT a Stradivari but a Stadivari! Saves a lot of money! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonfrohnen Posted May 23, 2007 Report Share Posted May 23, 2007 Quick, where is my checkbook!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.B.Fiddler Posted May 23, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2007 Look at the question posted by another ebay member on this listing. "Do you think it's a Strainer because it doesn't have strings attached?" Which one of you asked this excellent question? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonnichs Posted May 23, 2007 Report Share Posted May 23, 2007 Awe com'on now. At least this fiddle is tuned. The item listed 250116553978, per the description, will need tuning. Does any one know a good place where I can send in my violin to have it tuned? (:-> FS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pahdah_hound Posted May 24, 2007 Report Share Posted May 24, 2007 I will tune your violin for free with any purchase or install automatic wireless fine tuners for $199.99. I can also tune your bow once it is properly waxed. Jesse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marie Brown Posted May 24, 2007 Report Share Posted May 24, 2007 Quick! Close that case! Do not stop until all the locks are locked! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beaux Eau Posted May 24, 2007 Report Share Posted May 24, 2007 It appears that another sign that the ebay violin market has gotten soft is Jesse's seeking other modes of revenue. It is reassuring, however, to know that we now have a reputable source for wireless fine tuners and bow wax. Jesse: will you be stocking Romanian bow wax? Will you be adding a line of self-adhesive facsimile 17th century Cremona labels? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Complete with reproduceable labels, master bow maker's stamps, a rock tumbler-like device for antiquing new varnish, as well as a book titled "How to repair the cracks you just intentionally made in the style of those with infinitely more talent than you could hope to have." This is ground breaking stuff. I would like a *small* percentage of the royalties... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norkus Posted May 26, 2007 Report Share Posted May 26, 2007 Twas I that posed the question. Good auction find, Fiddler. I've been lurking for 10 months or so so this is my first post. Really love the site. Michael Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
