Polished with Vienna chalk and paraffin oil (not lamp oil). This took the too glossiness away -looking more authentic!
Also strung up the violin for first play. It is very powerful, (almost too much). It's nearly impossible to remember how it sounded in the white but I do remember the way the bow "grabs" the strings, it's the same, really responsive.
In playing state with chin rest
A0 = 274 Hz
B1- = 456 Hz
B1+ = 549 Hz
C2 = 396 Hz
The violin is right on the edge as I wanted it to be. Compared to setup in the white (lower MC%)Â
