The Czech violin is finally done. The inlaid rose wood fitting really look nice. Here are some pics:
Brian Duckworth did an incredible job putting this together at a fair price. His shop is fun to go to and he is as friendly as can be. I always have a great time when I got there. I'd recommend Duckworth Violinshop in New Braunfels, TX to anyone.
The violin plays well, I was concerned about the inlaid finger board and sounds better than ever.
I wonder if anyone else has tried inlaid fittings?
