I recently purchased a used genuine reproduction of Antonio Stradivarius. It has a model number and a six digit serial number which begins with a 4. I know it`s not super old, but I`d still like to find out just how old. Can anyone recommend how, or steer me in the right direction? Thanks so much! Vicki ")

What color is the wood on the inside? Is it bright tan-ish color like new violins, or is it dark in color? I have a 150ish year old violin and cello and the wood of both instruments is dark in the inside and they also have that same natural moldy smell. There are 100+ year old Antonius Stradivarius replicas; ha there are also brand new strad replicas.
What does the label say on the inside of the violin Exactly letter for letter? Some people spell his name wrong on purpose.
