This new violin made by Romanian maker, Valeriu Badea is a powerful and sweet violin to behold. The violin is hand made from the finest European tonewoods, aged and seasoned. The two piece maple back features a beautiful and pronounced tiger striping descending from the center. The violin is a dark orange/gold, with yellow hints under strong lights.

The tone of the instrument has wonderful golden resonance, deep and warm overtones, with a direct and powerful personality. It’s no wonder why the maker calls this one “The Beast”
