Antique German violin circa 1910. Two labels inside stating it is an Amati copy and the name of the importers in New York (see photos). It was originally made for the U. Navy Band, as it is branded U. On the back below the button. Length of back = 14 inches. Set up with German Wittner tailpiece and Helicore strings. A new set of ebony pegs had been professionally fitted. The bridge was well carved and thinned, stamped by the late James Fegley, a luthier from Reading, PA. I have been playing traditional fiddle music on this violin. The action is low and easy to play. You might wish to adjust the violin according to your own personal playing preferences. There are a couple of old repairs on the violin: a 3 repaired crack extending up from the chin rest clamp on the back of the violin (see photo 3), and repairs to the scroll (see photos 8-10), all of which appear solid and strong. There are the usual nicks and dings, and some wear to the varnish on the scroll (see photos). There is no case, but the violin will be carefully and professionally packaged. I do my best to describe items accurately and honestly. Please examine all the photos closely, using the zoom function, as they are an essential part of the description. See my other listings for more violins. The item “Antique German Violin 4/4 Amati Copy for the U. S. Navy a Vintage Old Fiddle” is in sale since Wednesday, July 4, 2018.
