Description

Violin Labeled “Rigat Rubus, St. Petersburg” (No. 162)

A curious instrument with unusual construction of the body and scroll.Many of these violins end up as wall pieces, but with a new setup it has come to life. The setupincludes a Despiau 3-tree bridge, new sound post, and Thomastik Vision strings. The sound is a little boxywith apleasant resonance,and a slight edge that might be ideal for fiddle or folk music.
