A student level instrument presented by string store, Joseph Farrell Violins in Baltimore MD. Presumably this instrument was a rental that was owned by potentially a number of budding musicians, but would have been continuously maintained at the shop. It is in fine playing condition, and would make for an excellent beginner to intermediate level instrument. The reddish stained body is of maple and spruce, with fine tuners. Typical, mild wear in the finish is present, purely cosmetic. Hand applied finish. Included in sale is hard case, and Zarelon carbon fiber bow.
