Ladislav F. Prokop, výroba hudebních nástrojů VCHRUDIMI 1938 - excellent build, demonstrated by aperfectly cleaninner work (four corner blocks + linigs), nicely carved scroll, faultlesslyinlaid purfling, attractive brown varnish (possibly of oil-spiritcompound), etc.;
- high-quality tonewood, typical for Prokop’s instruments,i.e. spruce of adense grain (top plate), and beautifully flamed maple incase of theone-piece back, ribs and neck;
- gorgeous tone (!), actually untypical for a‘standard’high-grade ‘Prokop alla Stainer’ violin, which would be mostly brilliant; thisinstrument’s sound isdifferent – mature, very colourful,flavoured with woody, viola-like overtones, and pleasantly‘rounded’ (but still appropriately brilliant) trebles. Theinstruments projectsvery well, while its responsiveness to dynamic changes issimply excellent.
