Sometimes I see photos inside guitars. Often they look a mess. I just saw this 1755 Guadagnini violin on maestronet that looks like you could eat off of it.

I guess being worth LOTS OF MONEY garners special care.

OH! I see it took 615 individual photos to get that image!

It looks like the excavated map room from Raiders of the Lost Ark.

That’s an amazing picture. Here is one I took checking the K&K install. I use a go pro on a selfie stick.

I'd like to know how many different luthiers have worked on that old violin.

That photographer has a bunch of very cool work, including a bunch of other bowed string instruments and pianos. Too bad he used a crappy bolt-on Ibanez as his model for his guitar photo!

I asked if he had plans to do a mandolin - I'd probably buy a print if he did a patched-up old Loar F5.

here's his website:
