Tiennou74 Posted November 11 Report Posted November 11 (edited) A neighbor is selling a few violins for under 200$ each - are these worth repairing or the cost would outweigh the value? Are they what they are said to be? 1. Violin 1 Janurius Galianus 1712 - top plate crack 2. Leandro Bisiachi, Milano 1922. - Looks like soundpost crack on back plate + top crack near neck 3. Villaume a Paris 4. Cremonena? Weird varnish and painted fingerboard? 5. John Juzek 1930, Make in Prague, Portland institute of music. 6. Jackson Guldon Edited November 11 by Tiennou74
