If you are reading this listing and viewing this instrument you may already know what this violin is and who made it and you may likely know more than I do about it..  Mr.  Wenzel has been building violins for many years this one is his Concert series model,  he Builds a Signature model now his violins sell in the 3500.00 price  range or more, he makes a fine violin.
I have played it and although I am not a Violin expert I am not without some knowledge and I would consider it a very fine instrument .
