I'm just curious how come there are not that much information on this GDG at Tarisio's website.
Also, Jason would usually make some videos to talk about extraordinary instruments like this one.
Are there reasons that I have not seen much discussion on this GDG so far :unsure: ?

It's a pretty good instrument. I tried it a couple weeks ago but I didn't think it sounded that great under the ear; Carlos (one of their salesmen) said that it sounded really great and robust at the other side of the room, although I thought it sounded small and almost anemic when I was playing it. (Who knows, though... it was probably my fault the violin was sounding like that.)

It's still listed on Bein and Fushi's website as being for sale.

With the death of Geoffrey Fushi they might not have updated the website recently.
