Must-have Stefano Gibertoni Stradivari ‘betts’ Violin Anno 2018 80% Off - Today Only [hwdaO2je]

This particular violin has won the #1 prize at the International Violin Making Competition "Andrea Postacchini", Italy, in May 2019. 

Fine Italian violin made in Milan, 2018 by award winning Stefano Gibertoni. This handsome violin is a copy of the "Betts" violin, another masterpiece, made in 1704 by Antonio Stradivari. The distinguishing features of the tone are the mellow brilliancy of the quality and the facile articulation. The sound on the four strings are good and even with excellent projection.

Just like the original "Betts" violin, most striking are the long corners and purfling joints and crisply defined edging,,What also strikes the viewer is the curiously lopsided placement of the f-holes, like the asymmetry of human eyes, which gives its visage an almost human character.
