sViolin based on Paolo Maggini 

2002 violin based on Paolo Maggini I made this violin in 2002 as a commission for a young violinist from Luxembourg, who asked for a lion's head to replace the scroll.  I took measurements from several Maggini instruments before settling on this model, which has a rich, powerful and even sound, bright and open on the E and warm and dark on the G. 

The lion's head carving was done by the German woodcarver Susanne Küster.
