With fit-up completed and strings at full tension for three days, this instrument was shared with my quintet friends. Along with several very promising comments, this violin needs additional tuners and reworking of the bridge. These tasks were completed this morning. Now to LISTEN carefully. As is typical, I played movements of the d-minor partita. Bridge shaping is quiet satisfactory. The improved sound post location works well. Balance is even. Tone is robust!
Steiner carved scrolls with angel figures. Here, the tail incorporates angels!
Helicore steel string are being tried out first.
The bridge was tapered. Later the bridge will be oiled.
Pegs are showing Steiner like features!
Now, more playing. More Bach!
