Here is a beautifully master-built European Guarnerius style violin from the shop of old world master luthier Stefan Petrov.   Mr. Petrov, an Eastern Eurpoean who studied in his youth with the masters of the west, is well reknowned for his faithful and exquisite recreations of classic Italian style instruments from Amati, Guarneri, Stradivari and Guadagnini.

 

A striking sound and ample deep volume, with subtle touches of master luthier built brilliance and a great feel are the benefits of this fine violin.  Bearing a comfortable thin neck and a fine setup, it feels as good as it sounds and looks.  The whole package!
World class, neighborhood price. This violin is set up VERY well with a great bridge (Despiau Superieur), Thomastik Vision strings, Ebony "Parisian Eye" fittings, and it includes a fine hardshell case and a nice octagonal Brazilwood bow.
