Eight-foot violone
according to Giovanni Paolo Maggini Brescia, six-stringed
A successful model for many years
I built the first eight-foot violone for Dane Roberts over 20 years ago.
Since then I have been building this model regularly in two versions:
a small version with 84 cm swinging string length and the normal version with 87 cm swinging string length.
Both models have proven themselves very well in terms of sound.
Carefully handcrafted details
Baroque meets modern times: The example of Brescia dates back to 1600
