This particular instrument is a beautiful del Gesu model
based on the Cannon of 1742.  Local tonewoods of
exceptional quality, excellent workmanship, and beautiful
fittings immediately strike the eye.  The varnish is thin and
elegantly shaded.  Slight "antiquing" adds a nice touch.  
Nice to have a violin from a woman maker.

Moneff's instrument really sparkle under the bow.  The
strings offer a bit of resistance; the bow starts with a slight
pop, the sound jumping out very quickly.  The tone is
brilliant, focused, intense, but with a warmth and fullness
underneath.  Nice.  Very nice.  I'd be happy to have made a
violin producing this tone.
