Comments:
Tourin: Big body, ribs have 9 stripes of ebony or rosewood with ivory between, like Martin Voigt. Scroll, pegbox, tailpiece and hookbar bordered with ivory; [inlaid] ivory frets. C-holes somewhat like Pierray’s. Dated c. 1880 in printout from museum’s database received 3/2010 (body and soundhole shape info from same source); neck seems to have 12 frets; total length 126, max width 41, depth 24 (including bridge?). Di Stefano 2016 photo shows back also with many narrow stripes.
