The tightly grained aged woods produce a rich voice that is characteristic of these quality early trade era German violins. This instrument is in excellent shape for its age. This violin has had no repairs made to it. In the photograph of the top plate, the dark line to the right of the fingerboard is simply a deep annual ring of the Spruce and not a repaired crack.
I consider this violin to be in mint condition for its age. The wear on the violin is honest and free from any cracks or repairs. This violin is setup with a fresh set of Dominant Strings. If you are in the market for an aged performance ready violin or bow, feel free to add me to your saved sellers. I will be listing more restorations in the coming months.1860-1890 Jacobus Stainer 4/4 Full Size Violin Vintage Old Antique Fiddle" is in sale since Friday, December 20, 2019.
