Get More InfoFind a DealerTo celebrate our decades-long journey in violin making, we set out to create a special series of instruments crafted from our finest tonewoods and sculpted by our best craftspeople. We’ve learned a great deal over the years and have taken the sum of that knowledge and instilled it into our latest instrument—the Model 830—creating an instrument that sounds as stunning as it looks.
Our Model 830 violins are made from our finest European tonewood, with the maple ribs and backs. We’ve also applied our decades worth of varnish mastering to create an instrument that sounds as stunning as it looks.
