was awarded multiple Gold Medals at numerous violin-making competitions for his
craftsmanship and tone. CM#20801
Modern Violins and Violas by Walter Mahr
Mahr's violins and violas have a sweet and powerful tone. His
tonal investigations are evident in every example of his work. (Charles Magby offers a
substantial collection of fine cellos, violins and violas in various grades made
by Mahr.)
Violins are modeled after the work of Guarneri and Stradivari in a
wide range of qualities. He makes superior instruments for student players
with a well-grained, solid maple back, pine wood top and ebony fittings... up to
superbly made masterpieces with marvelously textured maple. Mahr's
select tonal wood is carefully seasoned up to 50 years. Mahr can vary the
mixture of his oil and spirit varnish according to the desired tonal properties
required by a player.
Walter Mahr's grandfather was a mandolin-maker in Schonback. In
addition, his great grandfather was a violinmaker. Walter Mahr worked with
master craftsman Ernst Heinrich Roth, the cello maker Lothar Semmlinger and with
Roderich Paesold. )
