Eugen Meinel, Markneukirchen 1928 (Strad 1725 Model)
Do you enjoy treasure hunting? Great! We have a treasure for you to discover—an Eugen Meinel violin from the legendary Markneukirchen violin tradition. Peak inside to see the label:
“Eugen Meinel, Markneukirchen, Reproduction of Antonius Stradivarius, Cremona, 1725.”
Eugen Meinel was a famous Markneukirchen workshop where a plethora of great violins were made between the 1920s and the 1930s. This model was made in 1928 and belongs to a rare class “artist violins” that were made in the workshop during that time. These violins were originally built for well-monied patrons seeking masterworks of outstanding vibrance and timbre. Now in 2026, this 1928 Meinel is the perfect violin for the equally rare and impassioned musician.
This Meinel violin has a sparkling voice with exceptional projection. Its resonance is described as “silvery” and will please the violin connoisseur seeking the Cremona sound. Go ahead, tackle that violin concerto you have been dreaming of playing!
