HOWARD CORE AUGUST F. KOHR KR20 VIOLIN

The August F. Kohr Romanian Violin delivers the perfect balance of tonal warmth, projection, and refined craftsmanship for advancing players. Built in Romania from fine-grain spruce and slightly flamed maple, this model captures the classic European tonal character — resonant, responsive, and expressive — ideal for orchestral, solo, or chamber performance.

Finished in a medium satin orange-golden varnish, this violin exudes elegance and depth, with a clean, radiant voice that projects effortlessly across all registers. Its tone is powerful yet smooth, blending warmth in the lower range with brilliance in the upper. Designed for serious students and performers, the instrument’s even response and clarity make it a true pleasure to play.

Professionally fitted with ebony Parisian-eye fittings, a Guarneri model chinrest, and a Despiau “C” level French bridge, this violin is strung with Thomastik Dominant A, D, G strings and a Pirastro Gold Label E (loop end) — a proven combination for tonal complexity and projection. Every detail reflects the Kohr workshop’s commitment to precision, beauty, and sound quality.
