Fine Oil-Varnished Violin by Luthier Daniel Cloutier (2022) — Hellweg & Cloutier
Body A fine oil-varnished violin by luthier Daniel Cloutier of Hellweg & Cloutier, 2022.
This instrument is fitted with a Rippleboard fingerboard, which relieves hand stress and helps you play in tune with far less effort. It trains the hand to find correct positions naturally, yet unlike a fretboard, it never alters your finger positioning. When you return to a classic fingerboard, you will find your ability has only deepened.
Fittings are historic period replicas of famous violin fittings, crafted from centuries-old Mountain Mahogany—the pinnacle of instrument fitting wood.
