The violin that I played in my college years. This violin came to America from Germany in the 1920's, and had been heavily played ever since. So the sound of its sound has been completely opened up. There's a crack near the bridge area, but that's about it. The sound of the violin is dark and plenty loud. Sorry about the audio, it's not very good and did not completely capture the loudness of the violin because of wrong setups for the microphone...
