Paganini's Violin “The Cannon”

Paganini's Cannon

Special Note(s) for this photograph: “The Cannon” reacts differently to different players, yet most agree that it is somewhat “harder responding” than any other master instrument they have played. “The Cannon” is also the thickest violin to come from the shop of Joseph Guarneri and I believe his wife, Katarina Guarneri, helped in its construction.
