Your instrument arrives expertly adjusted, tuned, and concert-ready, crafted and refined by Scott Shu-Kun Cao himself to deliver an unparalleled level of tonal excellence and artistry.
The Scott Cao Personal Master Made Violin represents the pinnacle of violin craftsmanship, personally handmade and varnished by the world-renowned luthier Scott Shu-Kun Cao. Each instrument is an exact copy of a historic masterpiece, including its varnish, meticulously recreated to capture the character, warmth, and aesthetic of the original.
Constructed from the finest aged tonewoods — some up to 100 years old — with a select Italian spruce top and premium maple back, this violin delivers an extraordinary tonal palette, offering both intimacy and power. Its voice matures beautifully over time, blending sweetness with projection to fill concert halls with breathtaking resonance.
Every Personal Master violin is customized to suit your tonal and aesthetic preferences, from wood selection and varnish texture to fittings and setup details. Owing to the level of artistry and precision involved, each order takes approximately 6–8 months to complete, ensuring a truly bespoke instrument of lifelong value and distinction.
