what kind of wood is a stradivarius violin made of
Stradivarius Stradivari made his instruments using an inner form, unlike the French copyists, such as Vuillaume, who employed an outer form. It is clear from the number of forms throughout his career that he experimented with some of the dimensions of his instruments.[4] The woods used included spruce for the top, willow for the internal blocks and linings, and maple for the back, ribs, and neck.[5]
