Violin I plan on buying

It's an antique I think, but there's no way of telling. Has no manufacturer marks or anything, inside and out. Has a tin-like sound to it, clearly made for fiddling. More round on the top and bottom than most violins. Seems to be around ninety years old or so. Looks like it was dropped on the back of it at one point, but was taken to a very skilled repairman. Whoever it was added an extra polish to it too. Gonna put it on layaway tomorrow, full price is $800. Not bad in terms of violins. Needs a case. Story behind it is that the previous owner, an older man, passed away. While sorting his possessions, however that process goes, the violin was found tucked away. There was nothing in his will about it and nobody claimed it, so some lawyers or of the like came by the music center and sold it.

  • Looks like a total great deal. I expected parts of the violin scratched and worn off, but that is kept in amazing shape. I say you should get it, once you are ready you might be able to sell it later for some major moola!
