for the fingerboard. Ebony or rosewood used for the fingerboard. The instruments are hand lacquered with alcohol varnish of various shades. French Aubert locusts highlight the high quality of these instruments. Great sound is also guaranteed by the PIRASTRO STUDENT strings(Pirastro Passione strings A and D, Pirastro Chromcore strings G and C), which offer a fast response and a pleasantly warm and round tone.
The Martin W. Placht brand was created to unite violin makers in the West Bohemia region. Instruments bearing this name are made as in the old days when several violin makers were involved in the production of one instrument at the same time. Different parts of the production are divided into a whole group of violin makers to achieve the highest quality and efficiency. Martin W. Placht himself was a great violin maker and musical instrument dealer in the region. He practiced a similar system of making stringed musical instruments and put a lot of people to work. This is one of the reasons why the Violin-Rácz brand decided to name these instruments after him.
