Stainer Antique Violin with coffin case restored with fiddle violin bridge set up 1 bad gear

Used Stainer brand full size violin in the coffin hard wood case

we had this fixed up by our luthier to make it play as a fiddle so he says that is a little less curve to the top of the bridge

It now sounds really really good.  Strong clear bright sound

This one is nice and strong and loud

if thats what you want this is it

at only $750 you will get a violin as good of sounding as something else that is 3 to 4 times as much money

he fit a used ebony fingerboard on it as what came on it was not ebony

re-cut and shaped and polished the nut

new did the fiddle bridge cut

new sound post

polished and touched up the varnish as much as possible with out complete resoration

new strings

new end button

he has over 3 hours labor into it

it came out great

includes the vintage antique case which is cool but not practical for daily use

he said the bow is a good $80 to $100 bow that does need to haired

selling it as is as shown as vintage antique playing instruments plenty of age, worn, patina

this has the "gears" on it like an up-right bass not pegs.  The D string tuner gear is some what stripped.  We got it in tune with a little finesse.  We had to hold the gear together with open end wrench to make teeth line up.  We had ordered a new set of "gears" and they do not fit.

Bow reads L. Bausch Leitzig
