  • shoe polish does wonders. the scoll is to perfect, the back is not at Cremona.

  • take it to a luthier. All of the Strads in the World are accounted for.... He made approx 1000 instruments...650 remain...

  • All real strats on this planet have been accounted for. period.

  • vuillaume was also a crook who stole eticets out of stradivarius,but alsu just cut them out of a book to glue them in a new violin (made from old wood in his fathers back yard)but not after he stole the top blade of a strad which was in his hands to repair to put this on his own work.

    The strad was given back then to its owner (inclusive a new top blade )with the words: I cleaned it so it looks newer. real?

    This one is sertenly old when I look at the work but I do not think its a real strad.

  • ...its a German copy worth about $5 

  • Don't take my word for this, but I thought I saw a picture of a Stradivarius violin once and the label inside was hand written, and looked like a bunch of scribbles.

  • what became of this violin? did you bid on it or already own it? i have studied violins for years - as some have suggested violin could be old and possibly made by other family members but not by Antonio Stradivari himself. top is too flat around sound holes.

  • Many violins are modeled after the Stradivarius. Many makers during his time copied his models...which leads to a great number of people who own some old violin thinking they are Strads. Just because you found an old violin in your Grandmother's closet doesn't mean it's a Stradivarius -_-

  • Almost all violins (including the one I own and play) have a label on the inside of the violin that says "Copy of Stradivarius".

  • its a copy. there are only a few of those, and they are all at secure places in europe. its only rarely in america.
