Excellent Italian violin with beautiful tone woods made by very skilled artisan in Georgia, Dato Gurguchiani. He is very reputable through Georgian and foreign musicians by building Georgian string music instruments. He was inspired by the Stradivari violins. So, after the hard and long calculations he decided to make his first try to build Violin. It got a Fantastic instrument, not only for its beautiful look, but for its great tonal characteristics with warm, rich and lovely sounding. It features a very well-balanced sound between the high & low registers.  It has superb projection & a fast response time. In total instrument is great workmanship.

We recently tested it in a big Symphony Hall and of course it was able to fill that room easily. It is set up and tested by our professional luthiers in our city Conservatory to make sure that it sounds the best it can, and plays easily.

New setup and new strings, fully ready to play, no further investments by luthier needed. The maker’s brand is clearly visible, printed inside of the back plate on the back. It comes with standard one year structural warranty and free lifetime adjustments.

The wood for the both front and rear plate is made from carefully selected Georgian Larch and Lime. It is selected for its vibrant and bold flame. The ribs and scroll are similar to the back.
