Finding an all solid, hand-carved, violin outfit using premium aged, flamed and book-matched woods has been unheard of until now. The Cremona SV-1240 Maestro violin is an amazing instrument that all can afford. Featuring a select solid spruce top plus solid flamed maple back and sides, this violin offers the tone and performance an advancing player demands. The Hill-style Boxwood fittings set this instrument apart from others. Each instrument is setup to Cremona standards at their U.S. workshop.
