The Howard Core Select Goldman Stradivari Violin is a faithful tribute to one of the most iconic instruments in history the 1716 Goldman Stradivari, a Golden Period masterpiece famously played by Yehudi Menuhin and later by Nathan Milstein for nearly five decades. This Core Select edition recreates the tonal brilliance, precision, and refined aesthetics of that legendary instrument for todays discerning performer. Handcrafted from 100% European spruce and maple, this violin follows the exact 1716 Stradivari pattern, offering a bold, resonant tone with exceptional projection and balance. The bodys proportions 353mm body length, 167mm upper bout, and 206mm lower bout ensure comfort, responsiveness, and even tonal distribution. Every contour is carved and graduated to enhance resonance while preserving Stradivaris trademark clarity and warmth. The tone of the Goldman model is powerful yet elegant, capable of rich lyrical expression and commanding projection. Fitted with Pirastro Evah Pirazzi strings (loop-end E), it produces a vivid, articulate sound with depth and color suited for advanced and professional players. Finished in a beautifully hand-applied spirit varnish, it captures both the look and feel of its Golden Age inspiration.
