Full Description

The wood chosen for this cremona violin follows the figure of the original instrument. The top's spruce was carefully selected and came from Val di Fiemme, the same source 'del Gesù' used to get his wood. The luminous two-piece back maple with medium to wide flames comes from the Balkans. This cremona violin is ready to be played and to follow you in your successful journey as a musician.

"Considered to be one of the last works of ''del Gesù'' and named after a former owner, the famous Norwegian violinist, Ole Bull (1810-1880), this violin was his most esteemed one. Its unique and exceptional design is believed to be "Guarneri's most characteristic masterpiece" (The Hill Company). According to Peter Biddulph, the violin features the reconciliation of dark Brescian sonority with the quality and richness of the Cremonese tradition." Luiz Amorim
