Hi there!
When I first saw the instrument I wanted to go to New York to give it a shot.
Unfortunately I didn't have enough money to make a difference or at least be sure to give a fight against the other bidders.
I was very surprised when I saw the final price...($24.000) I could have bid more.
Did anybody see this instrument live? Was not an Italian one? Did it have a dangerous crack?
Any hint that can explain this low price?
Greetings!
