Expected wear & tear for age and playing

No damage

As you may be aware crackling or “craquelure” in an instrument of this age is a sign of the vintage, and is a valued feature. It is not a defect.


Recently professionally set up by Melbourne luthier Martin Paul Co - certification and valuation from this luthier too who felt it was consistent with the label

Obligato strings


Very rich special sound
