Violin, 4/4, Nippon label, c. 1910 ----- PRICED REDUCED TO SELL!!!
Has official “Made in Nippon” label and Strad copy “1700” label.
Germany gave up production of Strad copies during WW1. The Suzuki Company gathered makers and produced under the “Made in Nippon” label. These have become highly praised and valued violins.
Nice quality spruce top and flamed maple back and sides. It appears to have the original sunburst finish which is in wonderful condition with minor flaws. The geared tuners do away with the need for tailpiece fine tuners. This beauty is nicely equipped with new tailpiece and period chinrest with gel pad attached.
There is an old repaired small hairline crack by the A tuner. The peg-hole has been bushed to prevent further damage. There is an old, repaired 2” hairline crack in the top near the bass side of the fingerboard.
It plays great and sounds loud and lovely, even with inexpensive strings. The Nippon quality sound prevails! Nicely set-up with new bridge.
Comes with nice case and bow.
