The next Violin is made by the world famous luthier, Ernst Heinrich Roth. The violin is made in Germany following a great family tradition of violin making. The Roth Family have been making violins for centuries and are highly regarded by the violin community. This instrument is a good example why they are held in such high regard. This has an excellent tone that is rich and warm yet not muddy. The woods used to make it are not only the best woods but they are also matured for many years before the Luthier works on them. The two-piece back has a flamed maple finish that results not only in a violin that sounds beautiful but it also looks as good as it sounds! This violin sells at €1,999 and includes the violin and a set of strings only.
