Why are some of your violins on sale not made recently? Are these returned goods?

Has this violin been sold previously? I am curious why it was made in 2007, but just recently put up for sale.  — Kent

Hi….

nope. We subject the violin to “rest” for some of our higher level instruments.
We also subject it to tonewood tuning using loudspeakers for extreme high
and low notes, in our sound chambers. This gives the violin better response
and allow the violin to break in quickly. So when the player picks it up, it no
longer sound like a new violin.
