She (4/4 violin) was picked from Beijing Wang Zhiguo's Violin workshop, which has a history of 25 years and owned by our luthier, Master Wang. A true artisan luthier, He traveled to Italy for further Violin-Making study and returned 3 years later. He does not make many instruments within a year, though every piece he finishes is absolutely classic. As the best luthier, Master Wang always takes such factors as the individual character and resonance of each of different wood, making adjustments in the course of construction to ensure a beautiful sound rather than simply adhering to a standard of length, arch, width, and what not.
This is a master level violin carefully hand made after Guarneri del Gesu 1743 Cannone Violin, tastefully antiqued oil varnish, best tonal Bosnian Maple wood for the back, ribs and neck, best tone Austrian Spruce wood for the front plate; from the pictures, you will see the perfect workmanship in detail, I like the scroll work a lot, looks elegant and proud but with a bit of smile, it sings strong, powerful, well-balanced, even sound from the bass to treble notes, nicely rich, bright and clear tone.
