Andrs Modesto Martinez Bilva, Violin 2012 It is our great fortuneto feature this stunningviolin by our very own Andrs Modesto Martinez Bilva. Even though Andrs is now based right here in Pompano Beach, FL, this instrument was one of the first instruments he made while studying in Cremona Italy with Michele Dobner. Although he personally kept this instrument in his posession for the last decade, the instrument has rarely been played and is essentially still in brand new condition. Andrs has increased his instrument production this last year, and it\’s time for this early work to be enjoyed and cherished by a deserving player. The violin is also set up by Andrs. It\’s rare that violin makers also excel in the set-up process, but we are fortunate to have a true master in our midst.
