Outstanding Barry. It looks wonderfully old world (with the exception of the fifth string of course) What does Wade think about it?

Barry, that is one superb violin, you certainly set a standard for us aspiring violin makers to reach for. Your soundpost looks dark is it spruce? Maybe just shadow.

Mine should be finished in a week or two, just bridge and soundpost to fit and it'll be ready for the Boss. Not sure I'm going to post it after looking at yours though!

Beautiful Barry,
I love the depth you cut your channels around the purfling and the shape of your F holes. What species of spruce do you use for the top?
Sure wish you'd give a tutorial on finishing a white violin. From the ground you use to the exact recipe of varnish. How about it?
