Andreas Eastman   Model 305

The following is a review of the 305 violin...

  "Excellent playability, mellow tone, subtle response, and dynamic projection made this outfit a definitive favorite with our review team. ... We are confident recommending the Eastman violin to the advanced student as well as the promising beginner—the violin is one of the best higher-priced models we evaluated and its quality far exceeds that of some instruments at comparable prices."

  • Expertly tuned plates for optimal sound and response

  • Beautiful hand-applied multi-layer spirit varnish in the early 20th century Markneukirchen German style
