How much is a copy of antonius stradivatius faciebat cremona 1713 made in western Germany worth?
I have one too... if yours is in playable condition, it might be worth about $750 or thereabouts to a violinist. Early in the 20th century, there was a folk movement for more pastoral times. German luthiers made modern-day interpretations of lutes and violins, etc. My violin (by BKN) is a nicely made copy of a 1721 Stradavarius, albeit several machined metal parts give it away as a 1920s-1940s build. The violin may be worth more to a history buff or antiques collector.

Generally speaking, most violins in circulation are copies of various famous designs, Strad markings/labels being the most popular simply because of the name recognition. Chances are that any violin marked as such is simply a copy, more than likely a cheap copy. Consider it a knock-off, with all of the implications. If you so desire, seek out a luthier (that's a violin-maker & fixer), who will gladly tell you what you've got on your hands. Find a music shop near you that repairs instruments - they should be able to help you. Some copies are more valuable than others, and they will be able to tell if this is the case. If it's something you are thinking of purchasing (or selling), definitely seek out a professional before talking money.
