Up for auction/sale is a beautiful vintage full-size (4/4) violin body. The interior label clearly reads "Special Modell" on one side and "Jacobus Stainer" with a manufacturer's mark on the other. This instrument is a vintage German trade-shop copy of the famous Austrian master, likely produced in the Markneukirchen region between 1920 and 1950.It features the distinctively high-arched Stainer-style body pattern, which historically yields a warm, sweet, and intimate tone.
