Opinion abot this instrument of "Luthier Workshop J. T. Kubicki" issued on October 15, 2021 in Warsaw:
"Violin 4/4 violin, "S3-2020", made in the studio "Salamon = Violin Making" (Szczawnica, 2020).
The instrument, in perfect condition, is an example of the young wave violin making from Podhale, characterized by a synthesis of the classic solutions of the Cremonian school and modern post-Janikian influences. The instrument has an "old" finish, with visible, blackened scratches in the cheeks of the top plate and in the central part of the bottom, varnish of a deep, chocolate-brown color, heavily wiped, high-gloss finish.
An instrument with a deep, strong sound, with a strongly built middle and lower register, with a characteristic, aggressive edge. Incredibly responsive, dynamic violin."
