FRATELLI GUASTALLA LIUTAI in Reggiolo Emilla 1927

Features:

An Extraordinarily Rare Piece by the Guastalla Brothers that Inherited the Style of a Modern Italian Genius ‘Scarampella’
Known as the “Guastalla Brothers”, with the older brother Dante and the younger brother Alfredo, they worked together in Reggio Emilia, a city between Palma and Modena. They were great followers of a brilliant master of the Mantova school, Stefano Scarampella. Since their production number was low, their instruments are rarities in Japan.
This 1927 made violin demonstrates a typical Guastalla Brother’s style, with its flat arch and the design of the long and narrow F-Holes that indicates Scarampella’s influence. Acoustically too, the instrument has a rich and dense quality that is reminiscent of a powerful and dark sound, which is synonymous with Scarampella’s.
This extremely rare item is highly recommended for those whose emphasis is on what the instrument can do and not solely on the brand.
