Two Rivers Strings Haddock 1734 Bench Copy

The Haddock Violin represents Giuseppe "del Gesù" Guarneri's earlier violinmaking style, which includes patterns and traditions of the Brescian and Cremonese styles. His later instruments are known for their mercurial and unique patterns. The original Haddock violin got its name from one of its more famous owners, George Haddock, who owned the 1734 Guarneri in the late nineteenth century. The Two Rivers Strings Haddock 1734 Bench Copy is an authentic replica of the original violin. By using measurements, diagrams, and photographs of the original instrument, the luthier was able to recreate the sound, look, and feel of the famous violin.
