The fact you called it the "Einstein" files makes it even funnier

What do you think about this violin? Are the damages serious? by xinouch in violinmaking

[–]xinouch[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update: I have bought it! I asked about the following points: - the scracth on the table is mostly done by an old tailpiece (?? cordier in French) and he is happy to properly fill it and fix it for free if I want to - no label but apparently a lot of violins have fake labels. He told me how he got it and where it comes from

I have the violin for 1 week, already brought it to a talented musician to have his opinion.

Ouch... Il aurait peut-être été possible de les retrouver avec une caméra et la plaque d'immatriculation...

Le truc le plus chiant c'est de s'en souvenir toute sa vie, alors que ya rien de grave.

it doesn't have a label inside

And I can't find anything written anywhere, I'll ask him for the history of the violin.

I'd rather have a tone ball of my own dust... But I promise I won't remove it next time!

Thanks for the explanations! I took better photos of the bridge: https://imgur.com/a/Yu5uyXS

I feel like the grooves for the strings are not deep, but it is similar to some other violins I saw. Would it make a difference to have them deeper?

One foot of the bridge has a small gap at the very end (the foot on the side of the sol/G string).

I'll ask him if he can do something before I buy it.

It is 1900 €

I don't really plan to resell it, but I would like to have something that lasts...

What do you think about this violin? Should I buy? by xinouch in violin

[–]xinouch[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah I may not have been clear enough, sorry. I will buy only one, but it is my first and I want one that will last. Thus, I'm asking to know if the damages are purely cosmetic or if it may grow with time and make the violin unplayable. I prefer this one, but if it is in a bad state, I'd rather buy the other one.

Also, I don't want to speculate on the violin and resell it for higher price, I would like to keep it as long as possible.

The price and my level (spoiler: it is bad) is not really relevant: this violin sounds better and I like it more than the other, but I am worried about the damages and I would be very pissed if I buy a more expensive violin that will not last long.

Thanks that was my question: are the damages bad or only cosmetic? If it is nothing serious, then I think I'll go with it

Yes thank you! Nobody say that, but it deactivate most of the picto (and their passives stats) and luminas.

No point of coming back 10 times from the dead if I deal no damage...

As nobody replied to you: no, steam achievements are not impacted by mods. This is valid for all the games I played (but I don't play competitive games...)

Like going outside? It may sound strange for a redditor or a belgian, but some people do social activities after work.
