Notes:
This example is made to the same pattern as 73267, with a typically full overhang, larger, well-fluted sound-hole wings, a heavier scroll with blackened bevels and a narrow throat that still show signs of the saw. Once again the location pins are partially covered by the purfling and the blocks and linings are made of the more typical willow with the C-bout linings let into the corner blocks. The dendrochronology report does not give a firm dating but suggests that Vincenzo continued to use well-seasoned spruce as the latest ring on the bass side is dated to 1775, while the treble dates to 1776.Panormo – the life and work of Vincenzo and his sons.
