How much is an antonio vivaldi violin worth?

From 1997 to about 2003 they were imported by a firm in Los Angeles and they were pretty good violins. They were hand crafted from mahogany but the violins vary depending on the person that made them. Some are much better then others. On the bottom end you'll get a student model that is probably worth around $500-$600, which is what they sold for. Some of them were exceptional and worth several hundred more. I am judging this based on about 1,000 violins that I personally set up and made ready for market. I made a habit of collecting the best of them for myself and reselling them because of all the china violins, they were about the best, low cost violin out there. If you are buying one today (2012) and can find one from 10 years back or more, you're probably going to get a really great instrument. Be sure that all the joinery is together and that there is no warping. If the instrument as been taken care of, the wood will have dried out nicely by now and the instrument will be worth at least what it was worth new. The smaller sizes are also very nice instruments compared to most smaller violins. Any small violin will sound more like a box then a violin so don't expect the world. Once you get down to 1/4 or smaller, you're really buying an instrument that is a fingering trainer more then a sound maker. In the case of the small instruments, be sure the action is set correctly and don't spend more then $200 on any instrument. Originally, the Vivaldi 1/4 and 1/8 etc were about $350 new. They were probably worth it but used I would suggest you don't pay more then $150-$200 condition dependent. The Antonio Vivaldi violins are not the only good violin made in China. The name is not what you are looking for. You're looking for the quality of the wood and how the instrument resinates. Play the thing and if it sounds like a good violin, it probably is. The glue used these days usually holds together forever. The real problem with cheap violins are the bows. Get a quality bow and most violins will sound ok. That being said, there are a flood of garbage violins on the market that are priced $200 and under at places like musiciansfriend.com and similar. Those should be avoided by all but the families that just can't afford anything else. They make sound but its not a good one. They don't have the action to train fingers and the bows are worthless. For $200, you can't expect much - and you won't get it either.
