Svencino III & Custom
The Svencino III offers an exceptional choice for the serious player seeking a personalised, near-master-level instrument.
These arrive in their roughest form without f-holes or bass bar allowing us to begin with plate tuning, cut the f-holes, and fit the bass bar according to your playing style and tonal preference. Each violin is finished in a hand-applied Italian oil varnish, available in colours that can be tailored to your taste.
This meticulous process produces a violin of remarkable responsiveness, warmth, and individuality perfect for South Africa’s climate and for the player seeking both tone and personality.
Time and craftsmanship invested in this model are significantly less costly than those of a master maker, yet the result is virtually a master violin without the master price.
For many, the Svencino III is the lifelong companion and the final step before entering the realm of fine old master instruments.
