June 5, 2012 at 4:11 PM

I'm interested in buying my friend's violin. The label says 'stradivarius faciebat anno 1713' and it's a 1998 copy. It sounds and feels amazing to me.I know it's not a genuine Strad but I wanted some advice. If anyone has knows about this violin (I'm sure there are more) please comment. Here are some pictures of it.

You might want to take it to a reputable luthier and/or your teacher and get an opinion. Let someone with some expertise hear it and advise as to quality and value.
