Ruggieri model. Built on a 1679 example by Francesco Ruggieri (1630-1698). Greatly influenced by Nicolo Amati, Ruggieri?s brilliance was eclipsed by the Amati and Guarneri families during his own time, but recognized by later generations of concert soloists and connoisseurs. Includes ebony Parisian eye pegs and endbutton, Despiau "A" level French bridge, ebony tailpiece with E tuner, Guarneri model ebony chinrest, and Pirastro Evah Pirazzi Gold strings (silver G, loop end E). 4/4 only.
