StringWorks Maestro violin outfit A |
One of the most popular violins available today for the advanced violinist or adult amateur, the StringWorks Maestro violin features some of the most beautiful figured woods and a rich oil varnish that is tastefully antiqued. The tone of these violins is rich, resonant and full, with deep bass registers and a strong and vibrant upper register. Suitable for the most discriminating violinist, these instruments provide the visual beauty that is surpassed only by the rich tonal colors and depth of sound. Exclusively at StringWorks! Remember, there are many instrument brands now available with the ‘Maestro’ name, but there is only one StringWorks Maestro- the original and still the best! This outfit (Maestro violin outfit A) includes our very popular Joh. Krausch violin bow (pernambuco stick, nickel and silver fittings), and our D-shape case, with 2 bow holders, music pocket, handle, strap, and Cordura cover. “We truly love the Maestro violin that we purchased from StringWorks. It’s a tremendous joy to hear our son play an instrument of such high quality and it has such a remarkably beautiful appearance. He is very proud of his fine instrument and the CodaBow is really outstanding, too. His teacher was also delighted with this violin and couldn’t put it down. It has a powerful, yet warm tone that is really impressive. We couldn’t be happier with our choice and would recommend StringWorks to anyone interested in getting an excellent instrument and a great value.”- B.H. Solid, hand carved maple back and sides, solid hand carved aged spruce top, hand applied supple oil varnish, slightly antiqued. Stradivari model faithfully followed, with exacting graduation of the top and bottom plates for optimum tone and playability.

Gibson Custom Shop L-5 CES Guitar, Vintage Sunburst |
The depth and mellowness of the L-5 CES is winning acclaim for this fine guitar from the most discriminating artists. The tonal quality of the acoustic guitar and the advantages of an electric are combined in one instrument. Very few carved guitars are built each year because of the scarcity of the wood required and the handcrafting involved. The building of the L-5s is overseen by Jim Hutchins, a Gibson Builder since 1963. The process has remained relatively unchanged since the 1950s, including the hand-tuning of the top and back. Guitarists sing the praises of the comfortable neck; the fast, easy action; and the rich beauty of the carved spruce top. Other features include a figured, carved maple back with solid maple rims; a pearl inlaid ebony fingerboard; and beautiful multi white-black binding. With the creation of the L-5 in the 1920s, the modern archtop guitar was invented and it has set the standard for all carved guitars that have followed.
