You are bidding on a used 1/2 violin (serial#57421) fitted with caspari pegs. There is some minor wear and a few scratches on the body but is in overall good condition. I have included a horse-haired bow, molded case, and rosin. Please feel free to e-mail with any questions and good luck with the bidding.
The inside reads:
Reproduction Antonius Stradivarius Hungary
1727 G.A. Pfrehpchuery
Model no. 6106 1/2
Serial no. 57421
Supplied and adjusted by C. Meisel Music Co.
Caspari: These European pegs look very much like conventional wooden pegs, but they have a built-in clutch to control the peg from slipping. This clutch can be controlled with an adjustment screw in the end of the peg's handle. These are often installed in beginner's violins and violas and are very finely crafted from rosewood. Except for occasional adjustment of the clutch, they should be trouble-free. Adjust so the peg is just barely holding the tension of the string without slipping. Properly adjusted, the peg should turn readily, easily, and smoothly to tighten or loosen the string. The instrument fitted with Caspari pegs is often also fitted with fine tuners, to allow quicker tuning.
