Overview

Our commitment to preserving the spirit of the J. Thibouville-Lamy legacy has seen us embark on a journey of re-creation. Introducing the J. Thibouville-Lamy Barnabetti 4/4 Violin: A faithful reissue of timeless master craftsmanship.

The J. Thibouville-Lamy Barnabetti 4/4 violin is a beautiful master-built instrument honouring its stunning predecessor originally built in 1910 in JTL’s workshops in Mirecourt - the birthplace of French violin making.

This JTL Barnabetti violin uses the finest selection of European tonewoods and features a one-piece Maple back and ribs with a broad-grain Spruce top. Its naturally rich orange-brown colour is accentuated with an oil varnish, masterfully applied by our skilled luthiers using centuries-old techniques to ensure the Barnabetti violin looks as wonderful as it sounds.

Sound character: Focused, mature and warm tone with excellent overtones and exceptional resonance.
