This violin was made in the workshop of master luthier Klaus Clement. Clement began learning the art of violin-making in the workshop of Karl Hoefner/Paesold in Bubenreuth, Germany. In 2010 Clement opened his own workshop in Leipzig, Germany. He is an active member in many organisations including the association of German Violin & Bow Makers. This instrument comes with a certificate, declaration of materials and photos from the maker.
The V6 has a two-piece well-flamed maple back while the top is made from spruce. This violin has been antiqued with a good cover of golden to red-brown varnish. Klaus Clement is particularly well-known for his varnishing. The formula he uses is constantly changing & improving as he investigates the effect of the varnish on the sound of his instruments.
Overall this violin has a bright & articulate sound. It has great projection with a focused, clear & clean tone. This instrument is ideal for early-tertiary level study and the advanced musician. This instrument is currently fitted with Vision Solo strings to enhance the natural brightness of this violins sound.
WHAT MAKES THE CLEMENT V6 DIFFERENT TO THE CLEMENT V5?
- Higher quality of timber (seen in the higher flame on the back, sides, neck & scroll)
- Improved/greater projection due to the higher grade of timber & varnishing
