Varnish is a very important factor!
The base timbre is the same but it's not "muted" anymore
Modes before/after with chinrest (humidity 35-38%)
A0 268/272
B1- 439/442
B1+ 526/528
In other words no significant change in frequencies, taking humidity into account they are about 5 Hz higher (ebony vs boxwood setup)
