  • How do you like the cedar top in comparison to the more common spruce top?

  • @UncleTito72 -- well the entire violin is made of cedar, but overall the violin sounded very warm, throaty and had dark overtones. Not as bright as spruce/maple, i think :)

  • Great

  • @SuperChojrak -- thanks so much!!!

  • do you like vanessa mae?

  • @14deathsoul -- oh yes...absolutely :D

  • That was totally amazing. You're fantastic!!!

  • Beautiful sound. Cedar tops are used in guitars and I've often thought, "Why not violins?" I'm glad to see that there was someone brave enough to try something different. A good Luthier knows that the density of the wood of the soundboard dictates its thickness, not blindly following some old chart. Who ever made this violin did a decent job. Keep building!

  • I'M. IN. LOVE. WITH. THIS. VIOLIN. :o

  • It is probably too late to ask this, but I'm just curious if the whole violin is made of cedar or just the top. What are the back and sides made of?

  • impressive for sure.
