Hello, and thank you for your interest in my violin. I have many other violins for sale. I will be listing more in the future, so please consider following me. [Instrument Introduction] Roderich Paesold Its history began in 1848 with the establishment of the Paesold family workshop and trading company by Johann Carl, Roderich's grandfather. In the early 20th century, the company reached its peak in the export of strings and instruments. Later, in 1919, Roderich broke away from the family business and established the foundation for the current "Roderich Paesold" company, specializing in bow making and instrument exports. After World War II, Roderich moved to Bubenreuth, Bavaria, and re-established the family's bow-making business in 1950. With his business acumen and high skills as a bow maker, he gained a reputation both in Germany and abroad. In 1968, the management was taken over by W. Schreiber & Sohne, and Paesold began manufacturing high-quality stringed instruments. In 1981, it was integrated into the Boosey & Hawkes group, and Paesold's products were supplied worldwide, making its name widely known. In 2004, the management rights were returned to the Paesold family, and high-quality products are still being manufactured in the traditional workshop today. This Paesold is an 803 model made in 1995. It is a violin in the 300,000 yen class. A k.simora German-made bow and a new, non-branded bow are included. A used KUN shoulder rest and new rosin are included. Type: Violin Accessories/Parts: Bow Level: Intermediate
