2000s Unmarked 4/4 (Eastern European?) Violin
This is one heck of a violin for being an unmarked instrument -- it's clean, punchy, articulate, and loud. The owner thinks it's Eastern European in origin and it very well might be. It has a modern-style, thin, satin finish and is well-made and accurately-made throughout.
It'd be a great instrument for someone wanting to make an upgrade over an "average" fiddle. It's got plenty of staying-power for playing with others and that also allows for the player to "let-up" and not have to dig-in so much to get good sound.
The top has a medium-ish arch to it with a bit of a rounder profile overall.
