Violin repair 🎻 (full version)

This violin is old, but not old enough. Created by an unknown builder (no label) it had a lot of irregularities in terms of: the bass beam was 4 cm shorter, the side blocks were missing, the neck was warped and the bow was cracked, there were also four cracks on the top plate. All that was corrected as much as possible by me. In the end, the violin received an incredible transformation, both visually and sonically.

Execellent video. What prompted you to take on this extensive repair on this particular instrument? It seemed that you started with a working violin and worked to re-graduate the top plate thickness. Was the sound therefore noticeably improved? The look of the finished instrument is beautiful. I wish that it was possible to share your finishing technique and vocalize the re-shaping process.
