Manufacturer: Other violin importers The product of a 2004 collaboration between Czech and British violin builders- a project called "The Guarneri Project Violins." Fewer than 300 made, fewer than 180 distributed in the US. This violin is a a copy of the Guarneri violin played by Fritz Kreisler. The carving and assembly of the violin was done by a luthier in Prague. The varnish and set up was completed by a luthier in London. The collaborative effort produced instruments that have been called 'digitally remastered' copies of the original. This new instrument has a rich, loud voice that will only get better as a violinist plays it.

Manufacturer: Vintage Violins This violin has attributes like other 1920 Wurlitzer imports from Germany: even, tight grained spruce in the top, relatively wide flame in the maple of the back, sides and neck,
a refined scroll, delicate beestings and rich brown varnish. The rectangular label has a deliberately roughened and darkened edge with the characteristic script signature with the Cremona model and city names printed below. The right side of the label has a bump in it that could be caused by a maker's label under the Wurlitzer label.
This instrument has no repairs and almost no wear - remarkable condition for an instrument that is more than 90 years old. Ebony fittings. Dominant strings.
