| A fine quality Gustave Villaume violin. In beautiful condition with just some minor varnish wear. These are always excellent well made violins with good attention to details, a fine carved scroll, symmetrical button and graceful F holes. The back length is 14 inches, (35.6cm.), Set up with quality ebony fittings of which the pegs are the original set, Dominant strings and supplied in a new lightweight case. I would describe this as a violin a responsive well balanced tone, typical of the Gustave Villaume violins. A good purchase for both collectors and players, violins of this quality are rising in price rapidly. Recommended for collectors and players! |
