Below you will see a gallery of photos that represent some of the many violins in store. I've provided some insights and provenance when possible, but nothing beats trying them out and comparing. If you are not local, I can ship trial violins to you.

This is a new violin with very good wood (and one-piece back). It has been revoiced with correct graduations, and a quality sound post and bass bar. Zyex strings, ebony fingerboard, pegs, nut and saddle, with a Wittner carbon composite tailpiece. It was hand varnished in my shop. The tone is clear, smooth and strong. This is a terrific violin for someone who wants a great sound at an affordable price.  $500.00
