Sorry to hear about the bad news. I had no idea that the particular instruments are affected so much by the surroundings. It makes me think that I need to be more careful when trying out guitars, for example.
Too bad you aren't in it to do recordings... might be great for that if it's good in close ranges.
On the other hand, as you say, that would be great news if the one you have been using can be purchased for so much less and do a good job in the settings that you need it to do well in!
And just a crazy thought... I wonder if that's why the other violinist backed out of the deal... maybe he noticed the same thing?
