I know that carbon fibre violin I think...its' made by
www.luisandclark.com
I had it here for testing early last year...I would not call it a piece of crap, but it could not outperform even a mediocre (and much cheaper) wooden violin. Alos, the shape is rather different from the traditional which would make it unacceptable for most european orchestras...
I looked for violins outside germany...there are some makers, but it's hard to try violins all over germany and even harder to do it all over europe, especially since I have a tight schedule anyway... :-(
