PayPalBeautiful old German 4/4 Violin Jacobus Hornsteiner 1932 - Roth Workshop. Professionally set up and ready to play with brand new Thomastik-Infeld Dominant strings and a new Pirastro Gold Label E string.
This violin is in remarkable condition for its age. Inspection of the interior shows just one touch up to the top see images, and no other repairs have been done to any other part of the instrument. Neck projection measures exactly 27 mm with a 35 mm bridge height, providing the correct string angle and excellent projection—unlike many vintage violins that suffer from low neck angles and reduced volume. String action at the end of the fingerboard measures 5 mm on the G string and 4 mm on the E string.
Wonderful looking and sounding violin. These have been listed by many high-end auction houses as "made in the E. H. Roth shop" I am not sure if this is accurate, but it seems to be common to call these as such.
Jacobus Hornsteiner was a name used by the Roth firm in the 1920’s – 1940’s to sell instruments to different competing violin shops that were selling instruments in close proximity to each other. E. H. Roth II came to NY to manage the Simson violin dept. Roth and another partner bought that company and later moved it to Cleveland. Roth joined Simson and Frey in 1922.
