It is with great pleasure that I present my collaboration with the talented violin maker Vik Vandamme. He worked in my workshop in 2019, and during last year he built a violin for me. This is the third violin he has made based on my own personal “von der Lippe” model, and all are played daily by delighted Norwegian musicians and music students. The violin is built from materials from my stock; Italian alpine spruce, a beautiful maple back stored since 1982, sides and neck in European flame maple.

It is nice to see how Vik’s style shines through in this violin, which he has also varnished with his own oil varnish under my supervision. The violin is set up by yours truly here at Adamstuen with Evah Pirazzi strings, and has a lovely tone. This is the instrument for those who want the taste of a von der Lippe violin, but at an affordable price. The violin is insured and can be borrowed at home for up to two weeks.

Get in touch on 90019140 or jacob@vonderlippe.com if you want to try the violin.
