The body, at 370mm, is on the long side, nicely balanced by a rather grand scroll, which has historic repairs to both cheeks, correct and neat. A very interesting fiddle, with surprisingly fine tone and great projection, it is available for home trial, with distance no object and interesting part exchange offers(violin family, wooden flutes, concertinas etc) always welcome.
