Very nice old 18th Century German full size Violin by Johann Georg Schönfelder, Fire branded on the inside, with a grafted scroll. Violin has numerous repairs, not uncommon for a 200+ year old fiddle, everything looks solid. No post or bassbar repairs. Professionally setup with LR Baggs pickup, wittner tailpiece, Thomastik Vision Titanium Solo strings. Just had fingerboard serviced and smoothed out(photos are before this was done). Plays great. Action is low and fast with baggs bridge. Acoustic bridge is slightly higher. Nice warm, mature tone with a fast response. Suitable for an advanced player that can pull a good tone. Acoustic bridge is included as well. Will ship well packed in an old but functional case. Comes with a certificate of authenticity from 1963(printed in German)
