Caroline Campbell 7/8 Violin no21 'Pollicino' - 2015 Springfield, Fife
An beautiful choice for soloists as well as dedicated hobbyists and advanced orchestral players.
Measuring 345mm on the back, bridge position is at 187mm and neck length is 124mm, resulting in an active string length of 317mm
Made with Bosnian maple neck, back and sides and strong grained tonewood spruce for the top. A nice touch is the double line of purfling around the edge on both front and back
The varnish is a golden yellow and reminds us of the amber tones of a smooth Islay whisky, true to the popular regional delicacies of the country this violin hails from.
Ebony fittings
Original Maker’s set up, fully checked in-house
Unique opportunity to own a violin of Fife’s most original contemporary violin makers. Caroline never made the same model twice in the same way. That guarantees that every instrument is exclusive and a one-off. Investing in a newer instrument means the musician has the rare opportunity to shape its sound as the instrument matures.
Caroline hugely enjoyed giving many of her instruments a unique character by carving unique headstocks instead of the traditional scrolls. This one was inspired by the story of ‘Pollicino’, (Le Petit Poucet) or, as we call him in English, Tom Thumb.
