  • I can't believe I actually found this historical instrument buried in the ads of Facebook Marketplace. Restoring this violin was truly a fun project and the sound of this violin is so magnificent.
    I hope you enjoyed the before and after transformation of this instrument.
    Go practice.

    That violin was violated during your description of its physique. 😂

    Would be interesting to compare to your own main violin.

    I second that this would be great to compare with your main violin. That would be an interesting comparison!

    It really does not make sense to use $100 as the cost basis considering the total cost was closer to $500.

    Are the strings still setting in? The violin sounds a little flat rn but the sound was super deep and resonant

      Wood quality back then was substantially superior. Not to mention, French violins made by skilled artists were explicitly perfected

    Hate to rain on the parade, but it sounds the same as the $100 Amazon violin. Maybe a little louder, but you said you were pressing harder on the strings. Don't know where you're getting the $10k estimate from, but no one's going to be dumb enough to buy it for that. I hope it's just the mic because there's definitely not a $9900 sound difference.
