The Classical Strings Model 090 Marco Polo is a highly popular, handmade by individual violinmakers in John Wu’s Workshop in Beijing, instrument crafted after the model of Antonio Stradivari 1716, perfect for the advanced player. The Model 90 was used by the L.A. Children’s Orchestra during their 2015 America’s Got Talent performance.
This finely constructed, flamed instrument is carved using selected European Maple for the back, and Alaskan Spruce for the top. The final varnish is completed in our workshops in L.A.
This 4/4 violin features a French Despiau C-Grade bridge, Ebony fingerboard, chin rest & pegs, an antique reddish varnish, and Thomastik Dominant Strings with Pirastro Golden E string.
