This German violin has a marvelous arching tone and great balance. The Raab is meticulously crafted featuring a highly-flamed, one-piece maple back with matching sides and scroll. The top is made of the highest quality straight grain Balkan spruce and a classic varnish look reflective of the Italian masters. The Wolfgang Raab outfit includes a silver-mounted pernambuco or carbon fiber bow and suspension oblong case with four bow holders and hygrometer.
