Exploring the Andrea Guarneri Model Viola – Rich Sound & Unique Craftsmanship
Welcome to my workshop in Cremona! In this video, I’m thrilled to introduce the Andrea Guarneri model viola I recently crafted. Known for its rich, warm sound and harmonious design, Andrea Guarneri’s violas have been cherished by musicians for centuries. Here, I’ll walk you through the viola construction process, from selecting fine tonewoods like Val di Fiemme spruce and wide-flamed maple, to applying a custom alcohol-based varnish in a beautiful orange-brown shade.
The viola's body length of 41.6 cm is a perfect balance, providing comfort and sound projection for violists of all levels. Join us as the talented violist Ilaria Armanti performs Bach’s Suite No. 1, allowing us to experience the viola’s depth, warm timbre, and balanced tonal quality firsthand.
Let me know your thoughts on the viola’s sound in the comments! And if you’re passionate about the art of violin making, don’t forget to like, subscribe, and stay tuned for more on the world of Cremonese lutherie, violin craftsmanship, and handmade string instruments.

One of the finest Violas Ive heard! You got it right! Makes.me want to defect to Viola. Bravo! Bellisima! Dont change a thing! Keep making those! I can only hope to own one of your Violas one day. Beautiful varnish! Andrea Guarnieri would be proud of you!❤
Thank you so much for your kind words and enthusiasm! It means a lot to hear such appreciation for my work, especially from someone so inspired by the viola’s voice.🎻
these are copies. King(not the King Joseph from 1737 but King Guarneri-the real King) is in protected vault in Zagreb and is most well preserved Guarneri del Gesu violin along side with the one owned by Nicolo Paganini. King was owned by Zlatko Baloković who left it in his last will to Croatian academy of science and arts. King is very very rarely played
tarifi öğrenmek isterim :)
Perform the demonstration by explaining the construction of the varnish and its effect on the wood and the sound. Not with a video of shaking the container
As good as it is while new, it can only get better with age. Although we can't be certain, Guarneri's instruments probably sounded the same as yours when themselves new. May I suggest you look into some of New Zealand's native timbers for instrument making and especially, fossilised Kauri gum for your varnish?
Thank you for your thoughtful comment! I completely agree-there’s something truly special about how an instrument’s sound evolves with time. I appreciate your suggestion about New Zealand’s native timbers and fossilized Kauri gum for varnish; I’ll definitely look into it!
a damp sound
This violin is beautiful, what color is it? orange and any other color? thank you
Thank you! I always use a mix of natural colors-orange, red, and brown-blended carefully to achieve the desired shade.
Thank you for sharing the first playing of that beautiful sounding viola Marco.
Thank you so much, Peter! I’m thrilled you enjoyed the first notes of this viola. Stay tuned for more videos on my crafting process and future creations!
the two instruments are almost identical in sound, I did not find anything individual in them, just improved factory-made sound sharpness is given by casein glue and varnish hardness. There is buzz and garbage in the sound. the sound of violins is not polished.and how they will sound after 300 hours of playing is an important question
What type of materials you have used, please?
Brusilow for me. Both beautiful instruments.
Thanks for sharing your opinion!
No explain 😢😢😢😢😢
Hi Marco, can you tell me more about this gouge? radius, measurement, and on which degree it is? thank you!

Magnifique travail la couleur du vernis est très réussie et le vernis très transparent.
Thank you so much! I’m glad you like the color and transparency of the varnish!
Marco, you mention a protein-based sealer, but I don't recall you telling us what that is. Could you explain? Thanks.
I personally use lactic casein as a protein-based sealer, but other types of proteins can work just as well. The choice of sealer often comes down to personal preference and the desired final effect on the instrument.
Before varnishing ( available in the market) Violin should be scrubed with zero amery paper? Coulored Varish is available in the market?
Thanks for your questions! Check out my latest video on how I prepare the violin before varnishing. As for colored varnish, yes, it is available on the market, but many luthiers, including myself, prefer to prepare and mix our own pigments and dyes to achieve a more personalized and unique result.
As you get to that final coat, do you increase the amount of alcohol to keep the brush flowing, or do you use an oil towards the end? I find that I need to rush in order for my shellac to not dry before I finish a pass with my brush or cloth.
Thanks for your question! For the final coat of varnish, I actually dilute it heavily with alcohol. This helps keep the brush flowing smoothly and allows for a more controlled and even application.
Brawo polska firma!!! Piszę to jeszcze przed startem, więc nie wiem czy deployment zadziała na 100% - ale zaprojektowanie i wykonanie takiej uniwersalnej platformy / chassis dla mikrosatelitów to jest wielki wysiłek i wielkie osiągnięcie inżynieryjne. Jestem z was dumny!
Para mí, el Brusilov es mas cálido y profundo.
Thanks for your feedback!😊
beautiful instrument
Thank you so much! I’m glad you appreciate the instrument!
What kind of brush are you using?
I use a brush with sable hair. Their quality and elasticity make them perfect for achieving a smooth and even finish.
I sand my instruments with Toxicodendron radicans leaves, hermetically sealed and kept in a mayonnaise jar on Funk and Wagnalls’ porch for 24 hours
LOL
🥱😴
Nice work. Do you use albumine or gelatine for penetration?
Bravo 👏
Thank you!!
Thank you 👍
Thanks for watching!
Это песня а не работа!!!
Questa verniciatura è ad olio e non ad alcool come dici
Capisco il tuo dubbio ma questa verniciatura è effettivamente a base di alcol. La finitura liscia deriva dalla tecnica di applicazione, non dal tipo di vernice. Padroneggiare la tecnica può far sembrare una vernice ad alcol liscia come una vernice ad olio. Grazie per il tuo commento!
i do recognise something at 1:04,,, and i do not want to reveal something.... but i almost certain in what exactly you apply to threathen the wood... something my father also applied in the past
It’s casein
How is this possible??? Varnishing with alchohol varnish while it looks like oil??? No brush strokes whatsoever....nice , i want this varnish recipe.....😁
Thanks for the compliment! Indeed, it may look like oil because of the smooth finish, but the secret isn't just in the varnish recipe-it's all about the technique of application. Mastery in applying the varnish can make all the difference. Glad you liked it!
Marco Stradivarius used wood from 250 years old trees those trees are long gone and now under pressure luthiers are using 60 to 80 year old trees. There's an old saying that trees struck by lightning are good for making musical instruments because the resin has been dried out. I myself made a violin made of aluminium metal not the aluminium foil glued onto wood . At that time I was 15 and my violin won prizes for my school.
Well, not meaning to be unkind but there was practically NIL discussion of the "role of f-holes." What would be REALLY interesting would be to craft tops with different sized and shaped f-holes and then record and perhaps frequency analyze the results.
Thanks for your feedback! I understand your point about the role of f-holes. Stay tuned, and thanks again for the suggestion!
Gak ada terjemahannya ke bahasa indonesian.😊
It's always intriguing to hear a preference for the Guarneri's distinct sound. Thanks for adding to the conversation!
Guarneri for me. I have felt the palette is more open with colors though both are new. Strad model is great too. But I feel the dreamy nuance of the Guarneri
You said you were showing us how to varnish a violin. All you did was so us brush stokes. There is nothing here on how to. Where is the UV of the wood. The sealing of the wood. The mixing of the different varnishes. Anyone can show a finished product.
Thank you for your feedback. While this video focused primarily on the application technique, I agree that the preparation of the wood, the UV treatment, and the mixing of varnishes are all critical elements. The application technique, however, is what I believe truly distinguishes a masterful finish-it's more about how the varnish is applied than just what is used. Each stroke is deliberate and precise, contributing significantly to the final result. I appreciate your perspective and will consider highlighting more of the process in future videos to provide a more comprehensive view!
100% Brusilow ! :)
Thanks for your feedback!
Yes I am using casein glue before the varnish. You can see the glue fixing process in my video ua-cam.com/video/vvq5FAtbbgI/v-deo.htmlsi=FbArZCgcalMu_j0n
Nice to meet you, I would like to see the adhesive fixing process, it is glue adhesive, right?
Very very nice! Is that orange? I haven't tried to use orange yet but i believe orange is difficult to get looking good like this one here... it's uplifting 😊
I guess it's probably red not orange😊
Thanks a lot! Yes, it's orange. Using orange can be tricky, but I'm happy with how it turned out here. It's great to hear you liked it! 😊
@@MarcoOsioViolinmaker great work 👍
Over the years, I forgot what a nice piece the Suk Serenade in the background is.
It's wonderful to hear that the video helped you reconnect with Suk's Serenade! It's a piece that I find complements the artistry of violin making perfectly. Glad you enjoyed it!
Yes, thank you for putting it on. This piece continues the line of the great Serenades such as the Dvorak, Tschaikovski and Elgar in a worthy way. It's mood is so utterly positive! @@MarcoOsioViolinmaker
does the intensity and strength of each stroke affect the final sound?
In my opinion, what really influences the sound is the thickness of the varnish. A coat that's too thick can dampen the violin's sound, while an overly thin layer might not only make the sound louder, but also somewhat coarse. The key is finding the right balance to enhance the natural qualities of the instrument.
@@MarcoOsioViolinmakerDo you check and play the violin as you're adding coats?
Why didn't you explain exactly what you were doing and why you were doing it?
Great point, thanks for bringing it up! I wanted to let the visuals speak in this video, but it sounds like there's interest in a deeper dive. I'm saving those explanations for future videos - guess you'll have to subscribe and see! Appreciate your curiosity and engagement.
ok but you did not show or tell us what you used to prepare the wood, and what this alcohol varnish is? There are many wood varnishes but who knows what is used on a violin. I doubt it is polyurathane. And what was the stain? Shellac???
Thank you for your insightful comments. They've given me great ideas for future videos, where I can delve into specific details like wood preparation and the various materials used in the process. To answer one of your questions, you're right - it's definitely not polyurethane. In violin making, we typically use more traditional, often natural, varnishes. I'll make sure to cover these topics in more depth in upcoming videos. Stay tuned and thanks again for your curiosity and suggestions!
What I like about both instruments is you have not wasted time on antiquing them. Neither Strad or del gesu antiqued and it is crazy we want replicas. Ps, I will build brusilow next - did you copy the instrument down to its asymmetries? Any thoughts / experience with Bergonzi models, the subject of my current build? Thank you.
Thank you for your comment. You're right, I focus on crafting instruments without antiquing, as neither Strad nor del Gesù used this technique. In replicating the Brusilow, I aimed for precision in the arching and corners but chose not to replicate its asymmetries. Regarding Bergonzi models, I haven't built any instruments based on them yet, but it's certainly an intriguing prospect!
very nice varnish. You can tell the ingredients for making alcohol polish. 🙏
It’s a simple mixture of alcohol and transparent varnish, in ratio 10:1
@@MarcoOsioViolinmaker Do you only use shellac and alcohol? Although I apply it almost like yours, I use shellac and alcohol, it is not as beautiful as yours. 😞
Using only shellac and alcohol can indeed be limiting. In my process, I incorporate other resins like mastic and sandarac, which can make a significant difference in the results. These resins add unique qualities to the varnish, enhancing both the appearance and the sound of the instrument. It's all about finding the right balance and combination that works for you. Keep experimenting and you might find your ideal mix!
