[QUOTE="all_fakes, post: 4398745, member: 55"]Right! But it really was a terrible tone, sort of buzzy...I played it for a few months when I was 12, then my violin teacher said "we've got to get you something better....I know this guy....." And there was a violin dealer, well-known in Seattle at the time, who would go to Germany and bring back some violins. We got a 1797 violin from a known maker....now that one is a really nice violin, sweet in the highs and robust in the low.....I've been playing it for 60-plus years. And found a bow from 1848 to go with it, pretty good bow.[/QUOTE]
