What is a Antonius Stradivarius Cremonensis Faciebat Anno 1734 made in japan really worth?

A real one is worth in the millions. However, the chance of finding a previously unknown Strad is astronomical whereas coming across a modern copy, worth less than $2000, is extremely common, just check out Ebay. Except for a few stolen Strads only 500 or so originals remain and their locations are known.

Bordello says:
its a copy of a very rare violin made by Italian luthiar, Antonio Stradivari.
no, there isn't a chance its real, because stradivari never learned English, one of his labels would be printed in latin.
but wait, that doesn't mean its trash. it could still be a hand crafted violin of great quality, if you're curious, there are a number of specialists who could appraise the piece for you, but i wouldn't suggest investing too much time, or money in it.
best advice? take it down to a local music shop, have it restrung, buy a new bow, and learn how to play it. this will be where is true value lies.

Antonius Stradivarius Cremonensis Faciebat Anno 1736?
Have you found a violin with the label "Antonius Stradivarius Cremonensis"? Keep cool. It's almost certainly a fake. In the past some restorers have stuck labels (genuine or forged) inside instruments of various origins and there has been a proper business in labels, apart from the selling of violins. There have also been cases of old-time violin makers who would put the names of other contemporary makers on their own violins. Factories in the late 19th and early 20th centuries also labeled instruments as such by the thousands.Nowadays, no violin expert would judge the value of a violin by its label.Labels such as "Antonius Stradivarius Cremonensis Faciebat Anno 17", followed or not by circles with crosses, initials or other particular signs are made (in series) to be completed before being stuck on the instrument: actually "... Anno 17" shows only the first two numerals of any year of the 18th century. A complete label should read "... Anno 1715" or "... Anno 1707", or at least an year of the 18th century.There are also cases where you can't even seriously talk of fakes. A label like the following: "Antonius Stradivarius Cremonensis / Faciebat Anno 1721 / Made in Bohemia" is a joke rather a fake, considering that Stradivari never learned English. However, if you wish to learn more about the quality of the instrument you should take it to a violin maker, who will let you know if it is a good quality instrument. He may not be able to give you details of the period or school, but will be able to tell you if it was made by a good craftsman or on an assembly line. The addresses of violin makers, under the headings of States, can be found in the Reports of magazines for enthusiasts such as "Strad" or "String".If, after the first check, the violin maker recognizes a particular quality in the instrument, it may be worth while asking for a specialist's appraisal (Expertise) on the part of an expert and connoisseur (usually a restorer or well-known maker) who will issue a certificate of attribution and an estimate of the instrument's value. The cost of the expert's survey is, as a rule, quite modest if it concerns merely a verbal evaluation. There is, instead, a fixed price and a percentage of the instrument's value when a certificate evaluation is wanted.If you so wish, you can have a first opinion from the expert violin makers of the Cremona School of Violin Making (Scuola di Liuteria) sending photographs or colour slides taken in the most professional manner, with shots of the whole instrument and of its details. The evaluation may not be infallible (to value an instrument is not the same thing as valuing its photo), but it is possible to get a general indication. It's the best that can be done without having the instrument to hand.
Who invented the violin not who was the first maker?
Nobody really invented the violin. It originated from ancient Middle Eastern instruments that evolved as it traveled to Europe. The first person to create today's style of violin was Antonius Stradivarius.
Violin and it says antonius stradivarius cremonensis faclebat anno 1713 is the violin real?
Virtually all of Antonio Stradivarius' instruments that were built during what's considered his 'Golden Age' are known - either their current whereabouts or whether or not they were stolen at some point in history from the owner of the instrument. All Stradivarius instruments have provenance (it can be historically traced to the maker and previous owners). There are several Stradivari instruments that are still missing after being stolen or lost, and it's always possible to find one - one such violin was found to be in use by an amateur violinist. There of course were no charges filed, and a settlement was reached. But the best way to know is to contact the Stradivari Society. Given the small number of known Stradivari instruments (about 700) and the small number of those still missing, the odds of finding one of those missing instruments are pretty long. Since many manufacturers over the years, as well as forgers, have made copies and called them Stradivarius, it's more likely to have a copy than an original.

How can one tell if a violin is a true Stradivarius and not a copy?
AnswerIf you find a Stradivarius You can be assured that it will most likely be a copy. Most of them are in bank vaults or in the care of the world's top violinists. The chances that an owner of a real Stradivarius will allow you to touch his/her instrument is more or less zero, even if you are a professional violinist yourself and even then it would be considered a rude request should you ask to do so. Also, during the early part of the 20th Century thousands of fairly crude "Stradivarius" violins were churned out in the first mass production factories in some European countries. These were true Stradivarius models since Stradivarius basically standardized the modern shape of the violin with his longer sloped neck. Invariably they were terrible instruments and are virtually worthless today. Modern factory-made violins are much better and some are even quite excellent. But your chance of actually running into a real Stradivarius? Very low, the only way you could find one is if it was stolen or a Strad. that had been lost for a long time. Even so, if you think it might be one, you should take it to an experience violin maker to be sure you aren't sitting on an attic treasure! It's not impossible to come across one but very rare: what makes it possible World War II the spoils of war if prominent wealthy holders were jewish then that would be key. You would find the makers markers label most removed to smuggle and second pray it was maintained over the years (it must be played to maintain it's sound and kept in ideal conditions) commonly loss of label for smuggling and poor maintenance it most likly loose any potential as a $3 million dollar instrument most are really fakes selling the notion as surviving the holocust and Hitler's regime. If it was well there is a registry of jewish stolen properties so good luck!

What are the names of the most well known violin manufacturers?
"Manufacturers" isn't really the right word for this question, as the world's best violins were hand-crafted hundreds of years ago. The most well known violin maker was Stradivarius. "Strads," as they are called, can sell for millions of dollars each.
How can you read notes from the violin?
I can't resist... They are very susceptible to flowers and chocolates! No, really, the answer is that there are specialists in musical instrument history (organology) who specialize in fixing the date of Stradivarius violins and their close cousins from the Cremona era. Actually, if you have something in your hand that claims to be a Stradivarius, the one thing you can be sure of right off is that it isn't a Stradivarius. The existing instruments built by the great Strad are museum pieces or in the hands of famous (and very virtuoso) violinists. They sell for millions (when, rarely, they sell) and are tracked very closely. However, for centuries, violin makers, using the Stradivarius design, have been making violin copies of the Master and labeling them just "Stradivarius" in hopes that they can bilk the unwary into paying more than they are worth for the violins they make. I had originally remarked somewhat ironically that you could take an instrument, that you were convinced was a legitimate, unrecognized work of the Master's Hand to the Nation's Museum and ask the curators to check it, but as dlashof correctly pointed out, the Curators of the Smithsonian shouldn't be treated that way. So really, take it to a local luthier, they will be able to tell you many things about your fiddle, including recognizing if it is more than a copy of a copy.)
When were copies made of Antonius Stradivarius violins made in Germany?
I JUST READ THAT THEY WERE MADE BETWEEN 1921 AND WWII. I had heard that for years. People would look at my violin because the color was really different and it was so loud and has such a good tone. When they would look inside the f hole they would say this is a German Strad Copy made in the 20s and sold by Sears. One day the back started to separate from the side. I sent it to a repairman who had also told me the same thing about it being a 1920s Sears Strad copy. He was excited to find it was signed on the inside top by a guy who made it in Germany in 1858. I later found out when Sears contracted with Germany back in the 20's. Instead of falling short on supplies, they were grabbing any violin of decent quality no matter the age or maker if they fit into the category Strad Copy they would slap the label inside that was block printed Stradivarius Copy of etc.. The only way to really know how old or where the strad copy was made is to accidentally find a pencil written signature and date inside the belly of the violin. Don't let someone just run up and tell you what you have by looking at the label inside. I have a Strad Copy with "Berlin 6009" written inside. Next to it there is an old label that states it was repaired in 1886 by a man named George Harms of Evansville, IN.
What is the value of stradivarius model 1732 handmade by Karl Knilling?
It's not really handmade by Karl Knilling. Karl Knilling is just a ficticious trade name for German-made violins imported and sold by U.S. BAND & ORCHESTRA SUPPLIES, INC from St. Louis, Missouri. Your model, in good shape and set up with a good bridge and strings, a bow and the hardshell case it probably came in, might fetch about $250 in excellent condition, and about $150 if it shows signs of wear and use. That's not to say they're cheap instruments, but because they're mass-produced student level instruments, they're never going to be worth much. The model you have was probably made in the late 1980s to early 1990s.
What is the value of a used Bach Stradivarius trumpet?
This question really can't be answered without seeing the trumpet in person. A trumpet's value depends on its condition and playability. Your best bet would be to have it appraised. Depending on the age of the trumpet, it could be worth anywhere from $500-$1,500, but there is no way to tell without seeing it. Also, you would need to know what kind of Bach trumpet. If it's a Stradivarius, it will be worth more than a student model.
