15-3/4″ Oliver viola
This viola is made of Sitka spruce with a Red-maple one-piece back, Red Maple neck, and Big-leaf maple ribs, with willow linings and spruce blocks. It was just completed this morning (November 30th), so it is as new as new can be.
This is taken with a flash,so the colors are a little brighter than reality, but that’s the best I can do for now.
I will be participating in a violin-maker’s trade show at “Fairfield Inn & Suites” in Lake Oswego, tomorrow afternoon (December 1st). I hope to exhibit six violas, three violins, a cello and a five-string fiddle.
The show is open from One PM to Seven PM, and is free to all. I hope we get a lot of players attending…it is very encouraging to makers to have players test-driving their instruments.
