The neck was carved from a piece of 10x14 inch Redwood timber, the back and front being glued up of 3 and 4 inch Redwood plank. Over 300 feet of lumber was used in its manufacture, and while not designed for playing, when hnished it produced remarkable tone qualities.

The violin has been exhibited at the annual Gravenstein Apple Show in Sebastopol, and will also be displayed at the State Fair in Sacramento this month.
