This violin, built in 2023 by María Machado, is inspired by the work of luthier Giuseppe Guarneri Del Gesù. It reflects her commitment to the Italian lutherie tradition and her passion for crafting instruments that deeply connect with musicians. Each piece is handmade from carefully selected woods, ensuring a clear and resonant sound.

The top is made of European Alpine spruce, selected for its tonal precision. The back and ribs are crafted from flamed maple, providing powerful projection and a rich tonal palette. This model is perfect for those seeking a violin that blends strength and subtlety in every performance.

The varnish, hand-applied with an antiqued patina, is made from natural resins and linseed oil. This ensures long-lasting protection while preserving the wood’s resonance. This handcrafted finish enhances the violin’s acoustic qualities, delivering a vibrant and immersive sound.

Although this model is not customizable, you can request a bespoke violin tailored to your style and needs, working directly with María to create a truly unique instrument.

This violin is an opportunity to own an instrument crafted with care, precision, and the dedication that María puts into each piece. Ideal for those seeking a balanced yet powerful sound, with an aesthetic that echoes the great violins of the past.
