Ming Jiang Zhu 907 Violin Review

The Ming-Jiang Zhu 907 model violin is made with beautiful tonewoods and projects a full and powerful tone. Even though the violins from the Noble Heart Workshop may look similar, one of the main differences between models is the quality and orgin of the wood.

The wood for the top is made from carefully selected European spruce with fine grain. The wood for the two-piece maple back comes from the south of China and is selected for its vibrant and bold flame. The ribs and scroll are similar to the back.

Each instrument is beautifully oil varnished and the color is a red-brown on a yellow ground finish. They are attractively antiqued to appear like an old, expensive instrument. This violin is hand made in the Ming Jiang Zhu Workshop, but is set up and tested by our professional luthiers in our Florida workshop to make sure that it sounds the best it can, and plays easily.

Specifications

Body: Top from carefully selected European Spruce, beautifully flamed Maple back & sides from Sichuan China
Pattern: Guarneri 
Varnish: Oil varnish
Fittings: Boxwood
Bridge: Professional Level from Aubert Mirecourt
Strings: Thomastik Dominant

Dimensions

4/4 Full Size: Body length ≈ 355mm, Total length ≈ 586mm
7/8 Size: Body length ≈ 344mm, Total length ≈ 570mm

At Fiddlershop we personally examine these violins thoroughly and test/tune/adjust them before shipping. The violin will arrive ready to play out of the box with minimal tuning required.

Ming Jiang Zhu

World-Class Luthiery from Guangzhou

Founded in Guangzhou, China, the workshop of the late Ming Jiang Zhu represents a pinnacle of modern luthiery. Revered as one of the finest violin makers of his era, Zhu earned 21 individual Violin Society of America (VSA) awards (including two gold and two silver medals), building a world-class reputation that earned the workshop 27 VSA honors in total.

Today, the workshop's tradition of excellence continues under the leadership of Wei-Xian Zhu, a devoted student and first cousin of Ming-Jiang Zhu, who has spent over three decades preserving and expanding the master’s legacy. Together, the artisans of the Ming Jiang Zhu workshop produce world-class instruments renowned for their exceptional playability, beautiful aesthetics, and rich tonal character rivaling fine European and classic Italian makers, all at an exceptional value.
