Petr Rácz is one of the established Czech violin makers. He is a bearer of the tradition from the region of West Bohemia, specifically the town of Luby near Cheb, where he continues and develops the traditional craft that has been operating in the region for over 300 years. As a graduate of the local violin-making school, he studied with Karel Zadražil and Emil Lupac. He finished his studies as the best graduate in his class. He developed his work with major companies in the region, eventually becoming completely independent and creating instruments under his own name. His instruments are known all over the world. He has been a member of the Circle of Artistic Violin Makers since 2008.
The master violin was created in 2019. The model for the construction was an instrument by the master Giovanni Paolo Maggini from Brescia, Italy, who always wanted to be something different. In this particular model, it is the rich inlay of both plates and the headstock , which has one less thread.
The top is made of select alpine spruce. The board used has been air-dried according to traditional natural processes. The process, which takes many years to decades, ensures the instrument not only amazing sound qualities, but also humidity and temperature stability. The maple back, neck and sides are made from heavily veneered Bosnian maple. The Milo Stamm Royal fingerboard and rosewood fingerboard make the instrument a unique whole.
The varnish on this instrument is of Italian origin, according to a hundred-year-old recipe. The use of the finest natural resins and the precise adherence to the recipe has resulted in a varnish that conclusively improves the acoustic properties of the instrument.
Thomastik Peter Infeld strings with their rich spectrum of sound will satisfy even the most demanding players. Excellent tuning stability and immediate bow response are a matter of course. The instrument is tuned by the builder himself.
This instrument is a true work of art in every detail. It is suitable for professional players who place the highest demands on their instrument.
