Violin:

An English violin from the workshop of John Betts, c.1840

Prix: £18,000
This impressive violin from the workshop of John Betts, London c.1840 is a particularly robust instrument. Confidently crafted and typical of the making of the time in mid 19th century London, it has a strength of character to it rarely found for this price bracket. With a beautiful mix of plum red varnish over a golden brown ground, it is visually impressive and beautifully shaped.

It has a punchy, confident sound with a thick lower end. Full of old, woody charm whilst having volume and presence, it is a great choice for an aspiring soloist. It has been set up in the Ruschil workshop with Pirastro Obligato strings, adding a smooth, dark, buttery texture to the sound. Very versatile and definitely worth trying.
