This E.R. Pfretzschner violin, handmade in 1966 in Germany, is a stunning vintage instrument that pays homage to the renowned Antonius Stradivarius. It comes with the original durable hard case for protection and easy transportation. The brand's exceptional craftsmanship and attention to detail are evident in the beautiful sound this violin produces. **ATK O**.. Look carefully at the pictures for condition. I took close ups of every mar I found that I think a buyer should be aware of. The violin is completely sound and ready to be used other than the strings need to be replaced. It does not come with a bow. **atk o**..
