martin swan Posted February 12, 2016 Report Share Posted February 12, 2016 I'm afraid it's pretty much worthless. It was a poor violin to start with but the condition is also lousy ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omobono Posted February 12, 2016 Report Share Posted February 12, 2016 Is it just the picture or does that grain on the belly look as wide as a 'paling fence'? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ratcliffiddles Posted February 12, 2016 Report Share Posted February 12, 2016 I hope that is not the best of his collection.. I will add to the other comments mentioning low quality, saying that it is French "trade" low quality, and yes, sometimes they used that sort of lowest possible grade timber.
