Gianna's Appalachian model instruments are well
known for their warmth, easy playing characteristics,
and surprisingly sweet tone. We've arranged for a
top notch Kazanlak maker to produce the new line of
Appalachians in his small shop.
The Appalachian™ captures the spirit of the
mountains, with a woody, clear, singing tone that
longs to echo in a mountain church or rise above a
dancing riffle high in the Smokies. Each is a unique
heirloom with a distinctive appearance and a unique
name in Gianna's own calligraphy. While this is our
most popular model for folk fiddlers, we find
bluegrass and country fiddlers, classical players of
all levels, and amateurs love these fiddles for their
easy playing characteristics, supple response,
substantial reserve, and beautiful sweet tone.
- Our most popular model capturing the tone,
feel, and response of a fine vintage fiddle
- Compact Guarneri del Gesu pattern in highly
flamed Carpathian maple
- Skillfully hand-carved top, back, and scroll
- Hand inlaid purfling
- Available in three different setups: Classical,
Folk, or Steel-String Fiddle
- Antiqued oil varnish finish
- Professional level strings
- European bridge (Despiau D or Aubert No. 7)
tuned and compensated
- Fine rosewood fittings
Fiddlers at the Smoky Mountain Fiddlers Convention
inspired The Appalachian™ through their admiration
of the best of the European imports from the late
19th and early 20th Centuries. These violins have a
dark, rich, full tone and play very easily now that they
are broken in. The Appalachian™ is ideal for
players seeking smooth power and supple response,
but with the reserve power strong players seek. The
Appalachian™ is at home as a solo instrument or in
ensemble work.
Each Appalachian™ bears a unique Appalachian-
related name — for example “Spring Beauty” after
the wild flower — in Gianna’s own calligraphy. The
easy playing characteristics and mellow, rich tone
make this our most popular model. Both instruments
are entirely set up in our shop with hand split
soundpost, properly planed fingerboard, excellent
simple fittings, quality strings, and a well cut French
bridge.
