AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

On offer is an old fine full sized master violin, made and labeled: "Ernst Todt, Geigenbauer, Markneukirchen". The instrument is ready to play with no cracks, ebony set up, master made bridge and Infeld strings. The tone is powerful, sweet, rich, clear as a bell and focused with many colors to work with. It is responsive and even in all ranges. The violin has one piece back made from beautiful strongly flamed maple with matched sides, neck and scroll; the table is likewise matching of high quality, straight high grained spruce. The purfling has been painstakingly inlaid front and back. Original golden reddish varnish remains in excellent condition.

The whole length of the violin is 59 cm and the back 35,3 cm.
The width of the upper bouts: 16,6 cm; middle bouts: 11,2 cm; lower bouts: 20,7 cm.

Any questions I will endeavor to answer in a polite timely manner.
