Here's a play-through video! ↓ https://youtu.be/Y1ZKEyD9uzE?si=6510wDvEtfxN4fLW This is a Shojiro Mizuno (水野正次郎) violin, No. M1! My father bought it, and it has been stored for a long time! This is a Japanese-made, maker-made violin with a personal name on the label. Some market information suggests that the maker may be from the lineage of Masakichi Suzuki. (※I haven't confirmed detailed documentation, so I won't make a definitive statement!) The exact age is unclear, but it is considered a vintage violin possibly made around the pre-war period! As befits an instrument that has aged for many years, the wood is well-seasoned, and it features a calm and warm tone! 【Maker/Author】Shojiro Mizuno (水野正次郎) 【Model】No. M1 【Size】4/4 (Full Size) 【Age】Around pre-war period (estimated) 【Accessories】Bow, Case 【Strings】Steel Strings ※Please consider the included case as packing material for protection, as it is old! Basic maintenance has been done, and the sound post has been adjusted! It can be played without any problems in its current condition, so please check the sound in the YouTube play-through video! Currently, it has steel strings, so it is recommended to replace them with nylon or synthetic strings according to your preference! As a vintage item, there are scratches and signs of use due to aging! Please check the detailed condition in the photos! If you would like additional photos, please feel free to comment! We will carefully pack it and ship it with the utmost care!
