Does anyone know anything about a Wheatstone violin?
A friend brought one from France and took it to a restorer to make it playable including, appropriately, a new bridge.
He said it seemed to be quite a good model maybe up to100 years old, but they can't find anything out about it.
I thought 'Experiments With Mice' was an instruction manual.
Wheatstone was a well known maker of concertinas - C Wheatstone & Co. Haven't ever heard of a Wheatstone violin though.. might be worth asking the question over here
www.fiddleforum.com - lots of very knowledgeable people there on all things violin
Filton Welder . . . . . . . . . . life on the street anyone. . ?
BW TS-P Bronze Tenor/Link STM7*or Phil Barone Vintage 7*/Rovner Dark/Alexander 2 1/2
Wheatstone claimed to be the inventor of the concertina but which system. Like Filton never knew he made anything else except the Wheatstone Bridge but maybe that is the joke?
Jazz greats die young, guess I'll get the Buck House Telegram.
Hmmm!!!, didn't know you where into electronics OG..
