Violin
This is a Stradivari copy violin, made with spruce top, and maple back, ribs, neck and scroll. It has four rosewood friction pegs with modern strings (one missing), each with a fine tuner at the modern tailpiece (probably a Thomastik model). The nut, fingerboard, and chinrest are probably made of ebony.
