Violinmaking is a pretty old art. The first known violin that fully “looks like a violin,” I am told, is attributed to Andrea Amati, and dates back to the early 1500’s. Everyone since then has either been attempting to improve it (seldom really happens) or attempting to emulate “the old masters” to one degree or another.
