I am selling this violin for a friend of mine who is retired and wants it to be in the hands of someone who is a player and will use it.
It is very rare that a Silakowski 5-string violin comes up for sale on the market. Mr. Silakowski has a long waiting list for custom orders and the cost of his violins keeps getting higher.
This violin has a beautiful, deep, mellow tone. The gentleman who owns it has always used it in church and as a solo instrument.
It is in 100% perfect condition with no repairs. Instruments like this one can be seen on YouTube at 5-string Fiddle Hunt, Part 1 and Part 2 by Casey Driessen and also at Brittany'sfiddle styles workshop. There are also many other professional country players using Silakowski fiddles.
Mr. John Silakowski's 5-string fiddles sell at an average of $12,000.00 if you can find one. The gentleman who owns this one is offering it at a special cash price of $9,300.00. It is very well worth it. It will be a good violin to use and play and a great investment.
It comes with a useable case and no bow. The buyer must pay cost of shipping and insurance depending on your address.
Thanks for looking and Merry Christmas!
