Maurizio Tadioli is one of Italy's best known makers alive today. His violins are typically antiqued and comfortable for the player, producing a rich responsive tone equal to any violin being made today. His style of antiquing is an attempt at imitation of some of the greatest models of the pasy by Guarnerius, Stradivarius and Amati. We have or can get violins made in either the Stradivarian or Guarnerian patterns.
