The first violin sounded horrid. Probably a $100 beginner VSO from Amazon. The second I would assume is a bench made master instrument costing more than $10,000. The violinist could have chosen a more melodic excerpt to demonstrate the tonal characteristics.
ebony fingerboard? pernambuco arch? are they sustainable? Does the musician -who asks for a new instrument with exotic woods (generally tropical, from third world countries) - really know the impact of deforestation?
Beautiful Mike!
Well done.

I'm a violin maker and the setup on both violins was bad.
Should have picked better music for the end.

The instrument making industry has an extremly small effect on deforestation. Blame the chinese funiture makers.
