Eduard Tauscher Violin made in Erlbach, Markneukirchen Germany in around 1920
Eduard Tauscher (1867 – 1948)
It was said that during the young years of Eduard Taucher as a luthier, his first violins were made from the wood of old roof shingles. Eventually, in the years of his career, he managed to obtain top-quality tonewoods from various sources. Since he managed to create violins with good sound from roof shingles, he was able to produce high-quality instruments with warm, mature, and balanced sound full of character and volume using top-quality tonewoods.
