John Juzek Violin / C.R. Chagas Bow Professional Violin Set

Description

John Juzek Violin and C.R. Chagas Bow professional violin set.  Violinmaker John Juzek from Prague, label reads made in Czechoslovakia.  Estimated date circa 1940's.  C.R. Chagas bow made from brazilian Pernambuco wood, is lightweight and flexible for detailed phrasing and advanced bow techniques.  Bow in good condition. needs a standard rehairing and thumb pad replacement. Violin has a warm, open sound and is good for the advanced student or aspiring beginner.  Violin is in fair playing condition, however, please note, that the varnish on the top of the violin and some of the sides has been removed in order to remove red paint that was used by a previous owner on the violin.  Most of the red paint has been removed, but there are still small flecks and some on the back of the violin that will be visible upon inspection.  A luthier can revarnish these areas and restore the violin to its original luster.  Violin is playable whether or not you decide to revarnish the bare areas of wood.  I have been performing on this violin for past 10 years, and have decided to sell as I am no longer pursuing music as my career. Will include the case, shoulder rest, used backup strings, and rosin. Feel free to message me for any further questions.
