My teacher and I agree your violin was the best one of all we tried

My teacher was able to find time in her schedule this past weekend to visit the local shop with me. We were offered six instruments to try, some recently made and some older, in the $2500 - $3500 range. I was surprised by the extreme "antiquing" done to some of the recently made ones. One older German violin seemed to have potential so I took it for a trial for a few days.

After carefully comparing it to your own setup 909 at home I found that the (other shop's) German violin did have a very good, clear sound (not bright or harsh) but it did not have the warmth and fullness I was hearing in the sound of your violin you picked, the 909.

So, I definitely decided to keep this 909 and proceed with completing the transaction.

Thank you for setting up and offering these violins, and the other fine instruments at Fiddleheads, here in Canada.

I'll be sure to mention Fiddleheads to anyone I meet that would be looking for an instrument or that asks about my violin.
